	Leon Krier: "The Suppression of Classical Architecture in Postwar Germany".
		In Germany, important architectural discussions consciously or unconsciously continue to be overshadowed by the cultural policy of the Third Reich.
		On the contrary, it was begotten in the immense suffering of a planned postwar amnesia, a forced oblivion of the past, of architecture, and of the non-industrial city in general.
		On the contrary it was the civilized face, the aesthetic and cultured façade of this empire of lies, and was used by the regime to implant its totalitarian rule in the captivated soul of the masses.

	The tectonics of Japanese style: architect and carpenter in the late Meiji period.(Japan 1868-1945: Art, Architecture, ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		The creation of a national and modern Japanese architecture is attributed to the collaboration among Japanese architects and carpenters during the Meiji regime.
		Today the architectural symbol of the cultural climate of the late Meiji era is the Shrine and Temple style, or shajiyo, which appeared in the 1890s.
		By the late Meiji period architects (and, by extension, architectural historians) had become familiar with kiwariho, the traditional dimensioning system used in timber construction; a number of elite carpenters had redefined themselves as designers within a rapidly modernizing construction industry; and a new professional, the architect-conservator, had appeared to assume stewardship of historic buildings.

		Back in 1945, it was assumed that the international financial architecture would be associated primarily with the IMF and International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (as the World Bank was then known).
		This view of the architecture identifies it squarely as a structure of consensual decision-making.
		In this way I would distinguish the international financial architecture from a more generalised understanding of the ensemble of rules and procedures by which international financial transactions are carried out.

	Japan 1868-1945: art, architecture, and national identity Art Journal - Find Articles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		This issue was prompted by the conviction that there is a need for critical reflection on developments in Japanese art and architecture between 1868 and 1945, as well as by the desire to engage both specialists and nonspecialists of Japan in this emerging field of study.
		The role of art and architecture in the construction of Japanese national identity is a particularly fertile field for such cross-cultural exploration since Japanese developments throw light on many of the problems attendant on the creation of modernity in other parts of the world.
		The Meiji era witnessed intense efforts to transform Japan into a modern nation, a process that went hand-in-hand with efforts to mold a sense of nationhood as a means of stabilizing the country and instilling pride and loyalty in its citizens.
