Les performances fabuleuses de la construction moderne ont ouvert la voie vers un énorme pluralisme des formes au risque de confondre leurs significations premières et de laisser libre cours à l'arbitraire. Si l'architecture est un fait culturel, elle n'est pas pour autant un produit de mode. Elle n'est pas assez éphémère pour cela. Cet ouvrage propose une approche des multiples aspects et thèmes fondamentaux de cette discipline complexe et parfois mystérieuse. La première partie est forgée autour de références à la grammaire des formes architecturales. Dans la deuxième partie, l'auteur exprime sa propre position face au rapport entre espace et lieu et entre forme et matériaux, la raison utilitaire et la raison constructive n'ayant jamais suffi, à elles seules, à donner forme à la maison et à la ville. Cet ouvrage cherche à combler une lacune: il propose une introduction au projet et à la critique architecturale, vus à la lumière de notre époque.

This paper studies the linkage between structural coherence and economic growth. Structural coherence is defined as the degree that a country's industrial structure optimally reflects its factor endowment fundamentals. The paper found that at least for the overall capital, the shares of capital intensive industries were significantly bigger with higher initial capital endowment and faster capital accumulation. Moreover, there is a positive relationship between a country's aggregate output growth and the degree of structural coherence. Quantitatively, the structural coherence with respect to the overall capital explains about 30% of the growth differential among sample countries.
