The period from the end of the 1960s up to the country's disintegration in the 1990s is an ambiguous period, however: while according to some researchers the market-oriented economic reforms brought a much-needed opening and liberalization, according to others it marked the decline of the revolutionary demand for equality and the ascent of consumerism. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOrganized around an architectural typology, \u003ci\u003eConsumer Culture Landscapes in Socialist Yugoslavia\u003c\/i\u003e delves into the complexities of this period. It focuses on the sports and shopping centre Koteks Gripe in Split and similar architectural complexes in Sarajevo, Novi Sad and Prishtina, all designed by the Sarajevo based architect Zivorad Jankovic and associates; from these examples the book expands towards broader considerations of the architectural transformations of the Yugoslav modernist project.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 488\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.4 x 7.9 x 5.8 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 18, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51769675776288,"sku":"9789493148000","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/6ce86c7f58a8984985fc5e4175a82d14.webp?v=1780353131","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/consumer-culture-landscapes-in-socialist-yugoslavia-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
