The European Union is generating a new transnational political geography in Europe that raises a number of questions about the internal dynamics and role of cities in cross-border networks. Focusing on Zagreb - a city currently transitioning into the EU and with more than 150 years of experience of operating in conditions of instability and within transnational political structures - Blau examines how such conditions create opportunities for architecture, and generate new forms of practice and techniques for city making.

Eve Blau is Adjunct Professor of Architectural History and Director of the Master in Architecture Degree Programs at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design.
