The study examines the involvement of prominent Western modernists in the globalization of modern architecture during the 1930s to the 1960s. Finely contextualized analyses demonstrate that the projects defined by colonial continuities bear greater witness to the repressive conditions governing their creation than to progress and emancipation. Unter welchen Umständen ist es westlichen Akteuren gelungen, über nationale und kulturelle Grenzen hinweg einheitliche Architekturparameter zu etablieren? Warum ist dieses Projekt regelmäßig gescheitert? Wie lassen sich andere Transformationsprozesse fassen? Die spätkoloniale Moderne der 1930er bis 1960er Jahre steht für eine vielschichtige und nicht selten widersprüchliche Phase innerhalb der Globalisierung der Architekturmoderne. Sie ist von kolonialen Kontinuitäten wie von den konkurrierenden Modernitätsentwürfen lokaler Akteure gekennzeichnet. Indem die Studie gleichzeitig als machtkritische Diskursanalyse, historische Architektursoziologie und politische Ikonographie angelegt ist, gelingt es exemplarisch, die semantische Polyvalenz der spätkolonialen Architekturmoderne herauszuarbeiten. Das Spektrum der untersuchten Projekte umfasst Le Corbusiers Planungen für das französisch besetzte Algier, Ernst Mays Stadterweiterung für das kolonial-britische Kampala sowie die Interventionen Frank Lloyd Wrights und TACs in das haschemitische und frührepublikanische Bagdad.

The dream of scientific management was a rationalized machine world where life would approach the perfection of an assembly line. But since its early twentieth-century peak this dream has come to seem a dehumanizing nightmare. Henry Ford's assembly lines turned out a quarter of a million cars in 1914, but all of them were black. Forgotten has been the unparalleled new aesthetic beauty once seen in the ideas of Ford and scientific management pioneer Frederick Winslow Taylor. In The Taylorized Beauty of the Mechanical, Mauro Guillen recovers this history and retells the story of the emergence of modernist architecture as a romance with the ideas of scientific management--one that permanently reshaped the profession of architecture. Modernist architecture's pioneers, Guillen shows, found in scientific management the promise of a new, functional, machine-like--and beautiful--architecture, and the prospect of a new role for the architect as technical professional and social reformer. Taylor and Ford had a signal influence on Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius and on Le Corbusier and his Towards a New Architecture, the most important manifesto of modernist architecture. Architects were so enamored with the ideas of scientific management that they adopted them even when there was no functional advantage to do so.
