We explore the ancient idea of Harmony and Beauty and the historical confidence in the logarithmic spiral as the symbol of perfection in an un- built project for a 565 m (1,854 ft) high skyscraper that was supposed to be built on the tip of Manhattan, NYC. The role of geometry is no more exploited as an instrument for controlling architectural form, but for its liberation: the project for a helicoidal skyscraper consisted of a succession of warped wings developed on the layout of the logarithmic spiral. The helicoidal shape, works better than the others in splitting up the force of the wind in resistance, has a positive influence on the stability of the building and is the result of a strong design theory wondering about the power of invention, the power of geometry, the power of relationships among numbers, and finally the beauty of (deriving from) mathematics (in Architecture).

PREPARATION AND FAILURE (1928–1933)* ** 2 Thomas Flierl Independent Researcher, Berlin, Germany At the first meeting in Zurich I said right away that I could not imagine a Congress without the participation of the Russians. Letter by Sigfried Giedion to El Lissitzky. 21 May 1928. GTA archive. Zurich The paper deals with the dramatic story of the preparation for (and subsequent failure of) the 4th Congrès internationaux d’architecture moderne (CIAM) conference in Moscow. The offer to host the congress in Moscow was made in 1929, with the planned topic ‘Urban Organisation, Urban Construction, and Regional Planning’. Had it taken place in 1930 or 1931, the planned congress would have had an enormous impact. It probably would have been able to counteract the split of the modern urban construction movement into two factions, with those in favour of reconstructing existing cities on the one hand and proponents of building brand new cities on the other. It is widely believed that the congress was moved from Moscow to Athens due to CIAM’s protest against the results of the competition for the Palace of Soviets. Indeed, the controversy over this contest certainly delayed the congress. However, the study of the archival sources shows that the postponement was a result of a drastic change in the USSR’s domestic policies, which took place before CIAM challenged the results of the competition.

Modern Architecture & Ideology: Modernism as a Political Tool in Sweden and the Soviet Union Abstract This paper examines the role of architecture in the promotion of political ideologies through the study of modern architecture in the 20th century. First, it historicizes the development of modern architecture and establishes the style as a tool to convey progressive thought; following this perspective, the paper examines Swedish Functionalism and Constructivism in the Soviet Union as two case studies exploring how politicians react to modern architecture and the ideas that it promotes. In Sweden, Modernism’s ideals of moving past “tradition,” embracing modernity, and striving to improve life were in lock step with the folkhemmet, unleashing the nation from its past and ushering it into the future. In the Soviet Union, on the other hand, these ideals represented an ideological threat to Stalin’s totalitarian state.

    TWO REGIMES, TWO UNIVERSITY CITIES Architectonic language and ideology in Lithuania and Portugal: 1930-1975 Neringa Sobeščukaitė Dissertation of the Integrated Master’s Degree in Architecture supervised by Professor Nuno Alberto Leite Rodrigues Grande Department of Architecture, FCTUC, July 2013 TWO REGIMES, TWO UNIVERSITY CITIES Architectonic language and ideology in Lithuania and Portugal: 1930-1975 The author would like to thank numerous persons for their varied help, advice and encouragement, without whom research on this subject would have been impossible, if not at least much less comfortable or entertain- ing. These persons include but are not limited by colleagues from Kaunas Art Faculty of the Vilnius Academy of Fine Arts and Department of Architecture of the University of Coimbra. In particular, the author would like to thank: Miguel Godinho, Pedro Silva, João Briosa, Theresa Büscher, Monika Intaitė, Joana Orêncio, Lara Maminka Borges, Vânia Simões, Nuno Nina Martins, Magdalena Mozūraitytė, Jautra Bernotaitė, and Andrius Ropolas, for their support, and helpful hints along the way. The specificity of this work would not have been possible without the personal experience and academic for- mation in two institutions: Kaunas Art Faculty of the Vilnius Academy of Fine Arts, the university where the author finished its Bachelor degree, and Department of Architecture of the University of Coimbra, the current place of studies of the author. In this contex, the author would like to express the deepest gratitude to all pro- fessors and colleagues, for their help and support, for their brief discussions to deep, sometimes all night long conversations, that helped to feel at home, even when being half-way across the world.

    Ceaușescu’s Bucharest: Power, Architecture and National Identity By Vlad Moghioroși Submitted to Central European University Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Professor Constantin Iordachi Second reader: Professor Balázs Trencsényi CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2017 Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author.

Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author. CEU eTD Collection i Abstract The thesis analyzes Nicolae Ceaușescu’s redesign of Bucharest as part of the Romanian dictator’s national communism and cult of personality. The symbol of this cult and manifestation of nationalism was the Bucharest Political-Administrative Center. Scholars generally agree that an analysis of the continuation of nationalism in Romanian planning and architecture in the twentieth century is crucial for understanding Ceaușescu’s project for Bucharest. As such, the aim of this thesis is to brings a new perspective on the influence of Romanian 20th century planning and architecture on the construction of the Bucharest Political-Administrative Center. It also offers a new interpretation of the decision-making process behind the construction of the communist center. Using party archives, I argue that although nationalism continued to be used in Romanian planning and architecture after the communist takeover, the Ceaușescu regime differed significantly from both the Gheorghiu- Dej regime and the interwar period.
