OverviewIllustrated with a detailed study of the ancient World Heritage city of Matera and its 'Sassi', this book analyses the contemporary effects of preservation on the city and surrounding province. More broadly, it examines the relationship between and interdependence of preservation and modernism within architectural thought. The work asserts that preservation is not a passive, curatorial pursuit, but is a powerful tool often used to control economies and influence societies.
