Conférence de Kenny CUPERS - "La banlieue comme projet"

This lecture provides an overview of the history of mass housing and the banlieue in France. It explores the government’s commitment to housing in the postwar period, what was built and for whom, how this housing changed over time, and how this shapes the way we understand these built environments today, in particular their failures, real or perceived, at the hands of architects and planners.
