What does the Architecture of Democracy Represent?
Original language description
In the time of the crisis of democracy, new questions also arise in the field of architecture. Today architecture is asked about the content of terms that should be represented, symbolized and materialized. Meaning of many institutions, public buildings, architecture is redefined in political context. What influence does politics have on the functioning of buildings and what impact does architecture have on the functioning of institutions? What are the ways democracy and architecture relate to each other? What should the architecture of these buildings represent today? Contribution built on this theoretical basis will point out at several examples of political buildings as representatives of democracy in the structure of the city. The main role in many European capitals is often played by the iconic buildings of Parliament, the Government, the seat of the President, the judiciary, but it is also interesting to look at others - ministries, offices and so on. Their grouping or fragmentation also initiates the questions on concentration or distribution of political power. The paper will present the analysis of three scales of political power distribution – the scales of architecture, urbanism of city and the level of state.
