Totalitarian architecture: How buildings are used as a statement of power, control & ideology

from The Pat Kenny Show

From the grand boulevards of fascist Italy and nazi Germany’s monumental plans to the symbolism behind modern political projects like Donald Trump’s White House ballroom, architecture has long been used as a statement of power, control, and ideology. But how do buildings and monuments influence the way citizens see themselves in relation to the State? Joining Pat to discuss is Dr Hannah Malone, Assistant Professor in the History of Modern Architecture.
