Is it possible to write critically about cities today? What happened to criticism, which played a fundamental role in shaping our environment in the last century? Architectural historian and journalist Adéla Vaculíková and journalist Matěj Beránek will guide you through this four-part course. We will look beneath the surface of the media and public debate about space. Together, we will read, discuss, and write about architecture, urbanism, development, cars, trees, heat—in short, anything that shapes life in cities, towns, and villages.
