The first comprehensive and panoramic account of the architecture of socialist modernity in Central Europe from the mid-1940s to the 1990s, from Tallinn to Ljubljana and from divided Berlin to Bucharest and Skopje.

"Socmodernism. Architecture in Central Europe during the Cold War" is a fascinating and richly illustrated journey into the history of socialist modernism, which for decades remained underestimated and marginalized in the study of 20th-century architecture. The publication is not only an analysis of architectural phenomena, but also an attempt to reconstruct a fuller story of the post-war transformations of Central Europe.
