Modern Architecture in Historic Cities explores the factors which contribute to the prescence of contemporary architecture in historic areas. Illustrating why France has been so successful in combining conservation and modernity, this book points to important lessons for other countries which can be drawn from the French experience. Topics include: the crucial involvement of professional bodies and their relationship with elected representatives; the resources available in historic areas; mechanisms for design control; the ideological role of heritage and contemporary architecture as symbols of culture and progressiveness; and the public sector's input in decision-making and its commitment to both conservation and to the promotion of new architecture.
