Download or read book The Amsterdam School written by Maristella Casciato and published by 010 Publishers. This book was released on 1996 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The first years of this century witnessed the birth in Amsterdam of a movement which with its sculptural opulence of form would alter dramatically the appearance of that city. Under the leadership of architects like Wijdeveld, Kramer and De Klerk there evolved an expressionist visual language which under the name of Amsterdam School would create a stir on an international scale. Here, aided by almost 500 illustrations, is a comprehensive survey of many designs produced by the Amsterdam School, including such masterpieces as Van der Mey's Scheepvaarthuis, Berlage's plan for Amsterdam South, Kramer's bridges and De Klerk's De Dageraad and Eigen Haard housing estates. The work also deals with the carvings of Hildo Krop, street furniture, furniture designs and domestic interiors. The extensive bibliography and biographies of the most important architects make this an indispensable work of reference."--

Download or read book Transnational Capital and Class Fractions written by Bob Jessop and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging in the late 1970s, the Amsterdam School’s (AS) most distinctive contribution to international political economy was the systematic incorporation of the Marxian concept of capital fractions into the study of international politics. Contending that politics in advanced capitalist countries takes place in a fundamentally transnationalized space in which the distinction between ‘domestic’ and ‘international’ has blurred, it shows how in this space, politics is structured by competing comprehensive concepts of control. Presenting a concise and instructive introduction to the origins, development and significance of this distinct approach, this book provides a unique overview of the School’s contemporary significance for the field. Offering a new generation of critical scholars the opportunity to become acquainted at first hand with some of the contributions that have shaped the work of the AS, the contributions present critical commentaries, discussing the merits and shortcomings of the AS from a variety of perspectives, and undertake a (self-) critical evaluation of the current place and value of the AS framework in the broader landscape of approaches to the study of contemporary capitalism. Written for scholars and students alike, it will be of interest to those working in international political economy, international relations and political science, political sociology, European studies and branches of academic economics such as regulation theory and institutional economics.
