<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>100+ presents new approaches to the history and significance of the Bauhaus. The year 1919 serves as a starting point for a micro-historical consideration of the institution's global reach, including previously repressed voices, particularly those of queer protagonists. With its rejection of the meta-narrative of modern architecture, the avant-garde is revealed to embody inherent tensions between belief in progress and a claim to timeless validity. A close look at radical Bauhaus manifestos and positions on lifestyle design also reveals new perspectives on the relationship to state intervention and the power of private interests. With such considerations in mind, the sociotechnological utopias of the Bauhaus in all their ambivalence are examined for their sustainability with regard to 21st-century architectural, social and political challenges.
