Through a radical reading of Hegel's oeuvre, The Architecture of Freedom sets forth a theory of open borders centered on a new interpretation of the German philosopher's related conceptions of language and the aesthetic, mastery and servitude, and subjectivity and the state. The book's argument turns on Hegel's identification of “Africa” as a fluid, utopic space enabling the traversal of the East-West binary. As Hegel's figure for the non-historical, Africa emerges as the negativity that propels the movement of the dialectic in time. Mirroring the “shrouded” continent's relation to history, Kantian “architectonics” step out of the realm of logic in Hegelian thought and drive the historical unfolding of the aesthetic. In a foundational move, Hegel hypostatizes the aesthetic entanglement of built and linguistic form as the colossus of Memnon, an African warrior memorialized in ancient architecture, myth, and art. Reaching for freedom, the Memnon marks the architectonic modality through which the African slave, at the telos of history, will fulfill the spiritual promise of the human and bring about the politically mature state. The book examines the syncretic figure of the Memnon and slave across Hegel's lecture courses, the Phenomenology of Spirit, the Encyclopedia, and the Philosophy of Right. Ultimately the book calls for a reassessment of a range of Hegelian philosophemes across disciplines in the humanities. This book will be of particular interest to scholars in philosophy, postcolonial and African studies, political theory, architecture, and historiography.

The material and cultural world in which we now live perhaps represents the end of a process created out of the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution. The battles fought over class, ideology and language are represented most clearly in the explosion of new building types during the Century of Revolutions. Lavishly illustrated with photographs, drawings, maps and plans, Buildings and Power analyses architectural form, function and space to explore the reproduction and the subversion of power in the modern city.

Do you wonder about the way your life appears? Are you looking for some way to dramatically change your life? Have you tried many methods only to find that over time you eventually revert to old patterns? "The Architecture of Freedom" may provide the necessary insights to create permanent change. Exploring modern physics, personal experience, and spirituality, this book outlines a radically different way of understanding our lives, our universe and our being. While this book is not a quick read or proposing an easy fix, once understood, the ideas in this book will forever change your life. Whether or not we are aware of it, what the majority of us most desire is peace of mind in each and every moment. This experience becomes available to all of us when we learn how to live our lives without "resistance" so that we can then use our unique gifts to follow our most personal and joyful path. Due to our deeply held fears, we all create "resistance" to the natural and organic flow that would otherwise effortlessly move our lives. Near the root of these fears is the fear that we will one day die and then cease to exist. However, because of the way our universe is built, this fear of death is completely unfounded. "The Architecture of Freedom" explains why death, or our passing into a state of nonexistence, is impossible. Freedom is living our lives without this fear or "resistance," so that we are fully available for all the amazing possibilities that then will begin to flow forth. Learning to live this way is about learning how to live in the "present moment" or "now." When we live fearless lives in the "now," we become directly connected to a different and amazing way of being-our birthright. In this way we access the deeper parts of our being to share a type of universal awareness that is healing for each individual and for our entire planet. Imagine a universe where everything is possible and every idea is fully realized. Everything-all that we consider good or bad, saintly or evil, beautiful or ugly-already exists along with anything else that any person or being could ever dream or imagine. What if you could choose from all of these things to construct your perfect life? Amazingly, this is much closer to the true form of creation than the world that we usually imagine. All of these possibilities are happening at once and we all have the ability to choose which parts of this "everything" that we will experience. We cannot choose using our brains or even our minds; instead, we choose with the entirety of our vibrational being. It is not easy for us to understand this type of choosing because so much of our universe exists and operates in realms that we can't directly access with our minds or five senses. Even though we don't have full access to the full extent of this amazing space, it is always fully interactive with our lives-it creates everything that we do and experience. A large part of life's beauty derives from this mystery, which only exists because, in our present form, we are not yet capable of understanding the infinite nature of creation. If we could understand the full extent of creation, we would see clearly that we are all one being, that time is an illusion, that we never will die, and that everything that happens is exactly perfect for the evolution of our soul. We are not here to understand creation-that is not our purpose. We are here to gain experience by fearlessly participating in every aspect of life. This is true freedom. Understanding more about the real structure of creation can help eliminate many of our common fears; it is these fears that prevent us from living our lives in freedom. I have devoted a large part of my life to exploring the occasionally visible edges of this truth. This book describes my personal adventure and the process that brought me to this realization. It is my hope that this book might serve others as a helpful guide for this, our common journey.

Architects are facing a crisis of agency. For decades, they have seen their traditional role diminish in scope as more and more of their responsibilities have been taken over by other disciplines within the building construction industry. Once upon a time, we might have seen the architect as the conductor of the orchestra; now he or she is but one cog in a vast and increasingly complex machine. In an attempt to find a way out of this crisis, there is growing debate about how architects might reassert the importance of their role and influence. On one side of this argument are those who believe that architects must refocus their attention on the internal demands of the discipline. On the other are those who argue that architects must, instead, reacquaint themselves with what many still believe to be the discipline’s core mission of advancing social progress and promoting the public good, and at the same time the scope of their traditional disciplinary remit. At root, this question is fundamentally about freedom, about whether architects still possess it – if they have ever done – and whether it is possible to find the professional, disciplinary and individual autonomy to be able to define the spheres of their own practice. Presenting a variety of views and perspectives, this issue of AD takes us to the heart of what freedom means for architecture as it adapts and evolves in response to the changing contexts in which it is practised in the 21st century. Contributors include: Phillip Bernstein, Peggy Deamer, Adam Nathaniel Furman, Kate Goodwin, Charles Holland, Anna Minton, Patrik Schumacher, Alex Scott-Whitby, Ines Weizman, and Sarah Wigglesworth. Featured architects: Atelier Kite, ScottWhitbyStudio, C+S Architects, Anupama Kundoo, Noero Architects, Umbrellium, and Zaha Hadid Architects. Architects are facing a crisis of agency.

Spurred by ideals of individual liberty that took hold in the Western world in the late nineteenth century, psychiatrists and public officials sought to reinvent asylums as large-scale, totally designed institutions that offered a level of freedom and normality impossible in the outside world. This volume explores the “caged freedom” that this new psychiatric ethos represented by analyzing seven such buildings established in the Austro-Hungarian monarchy between the late 1890s and World War I. In the last two decades of the Habsburg Empire, architects of asylums began to abandon traditional corridor-based plans in favor of looser formations of connected villas, echoing through design the urban- and freedom-oriented impulse of the progressive architecture of the time. Leslie Topp considers the paradoxical position of designs that promoted an illusion of freedom even as they exercised careful social and spatial control over patients. In addition to discussing the physical and social aspects of these institutions, Topp shows how the commissioned buildings were symptomatic of larger cultural changes and of the modern asylum’s straining against its ideological anchorage in a premodern past of “unenlightened” restraint on human liberty. Working at the intersection of the history of architecture and the history of psychiatry, Freedom and the Cage broadens our understanding of the complexity and fluidity of modern architecture’s engagement with the state, with social and medical projects, and with mental health, psychiatry, and psychology.

The President of the National Association of Scholars offers a statement on academic and intellectual freedom and their relationship with other foundational principles of higher education.The argument is that intellectual freedom is a foundational principle of American higher education, but it is not the only foundational principle. To understand intellectual freedom accurately, it must be considered as part of a complex whole that sustains the university.
