Yugoslavia and Beyond: from Modern Architecture to Current Practices

The countries that comprised Yugoslavia went through several stages of modernization starting in the second half of the 19th century. These successive modernization were aborted due to the political and societal changes roughly marked by wars – WW I, WW II, and the war of the 1990s. Each new modernization had a new ideological prefix and different aspirations of the centres of power. In such turbulent conditions, the societal context was and still is unstable and significantly influenced by the geostrategic position of the region. But these successive modernizations also introduced a certain originality, each new stage implied invention as a tension between inherited values and starting over from scratch.
