Entangled Histories. Architecture, Women, 1968

Kapitel i bok, 2020

Writing entangled accounts of resistant architecture after May 1968 creates opportunities to include also the various ways in which women have contributed to the design, conceptualization, and realization of the built environment. Writing about such contributions can expand our understanding of the transformative roles and the diverse capacities through which architects can contribute to society; preoccupations that were at the heart of discussions in architecture after 1968. In showing the
diversity of ways in which architects contributed to the built environment, entangled accounts—in Sweden and beyond—can potentially generate also more diversified role models for architecture. While such diversifying work is important, it has several hurdles to overcome.
