Critique of Architecture offers a renewed and radical theorization of
the relations between capital and architecture. It explicates the
theoretical gymnastics through which architecture legitimates its
services to neoliberalism, examines the discipline’s production of
platforms for happily compliant consumers, and challenges its
entrepreneurial self-image. Critique of Architecture also addresses
the discourse of autonomy, questioning its capacity to engage
effectively with the terms and conditions of capitalism today,
analyses the post-political turns of contemporary architecture theory,
and reckons with the legacies and limitations of critical theory.
