| Abstract | The author's research project will "examine the life and work of a group of European-trained, German-speaking urban planners and architects who came to the United States during the late 1920s and 1930s," and is part of a larger project analyzing postwar transatlantic connections in the areas of social work, consumption, cities, and business. The current project will focus on two themes--the development of individual careers in the context of migration and exile, and transatlantic exchange processes. Case studies will include Victor Gruen, Ludwig Hilberseimer, and Konrad Wachsmann. |
