    Content: "Ob Trump oder Brexit, FPÖ oder AfD: Rechtspopulistische Parteien und Strömungen machen weltweit mobil gegen die Globalisierung -- und gegen den Universalismus. Ihr Erfolg hängt auch mit berechtigter Kritik an den sozialen Verwerfungen durch Neoliberalismus und Finanzkapitalismus zusammen. Allerdings werden Krisenphänomene der Modernisierung von den Populisten lediglich rhetorisch adressiert, um Partikularismen und nationalstaatliche Egoismen zu befördern. Das Zusammenwachsen der Weltgemeinschaft und die hart erkämpften universellen Werte der Moderne in Bezug auf Freiheitsrechte, Gleichberechtigung und Solidarität geraten dabei unter Beschuss. Diese Tendenzwende findet zu einer Zeit statt, in der Problemstellungen wie Klimawandel und Migration gerade eine stärkere internationale Zusammenarbeit erfordern. Mit dieser Ausgabe, die im Rahmen von projekt bauhaus entstanden ist, wollen wir ein differenziertes Bild des Universalismus zeichnen. Dafür beleuchten wir kritisch die Architekturen der Globalisierung: Gemeint sind vor allem die Strukturen des globalisierten Lieferketten-Kapitalismus, die für die weltweite Ausbeutung von Ressourcen und Arbeitskraft sowie die universelle Zirkulation von Kapital und Waren sorgen, während Mobilität sich als Privileg des reichen Teils der Weltbevölkerung erweist. Damit stellt sich die Frage nach alternativen Denkmodellen für eine migratorische Weltgesellschaft, die nach neuen kosmopolitischen Normen (Seyla Benhabib) und einem 'Recht auf Welt' jenseits nationalstaatlicher Grenzen verlangt." -- "Whether Trump or Brexit, FPÖ or AfD: right-wing populist parties and currents are mobilizing against globalization - and against universalism. Their success is also related to legitimate criticism of the social upheavals caused by neoliberalism and financial capitalism. However, crisis phenomena of modernization are only addressed rhetorically by the populists in order to promote particularisms and nation-state egoisms. The growing together of the global community and the hard-won universal values ​​of modernity with regard to freedom, equality and solidarity come under attack. This trend reversal is taking place at a time when problems such as climate change and migration require stronger international cooperation. With this edition, which was created as part of projekt bauhaus, we want to paint a differentiated picture of universalism. To this end, we take a critical look at the architecture of globalization: What we mean above all is the structures of globalized supply chain capitalism, which ensure the worldwide exploitation of resources and labour as well as the universal circulation of capital and goods, while mobility is a privilege of the rich part of the world population proves. This raises the question of alternative models of thought for a global migratory society that demands new cosmopolitan norms (Seyla Benhabib) and a 'right to the world' beyond national borders."

    Series Statement: World economic and financial surveys ; April 2018
    Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "The global economic upswing that began around mid-2016 has become broader and stronger. This new World Economic Outlook report projects that advanced economies as a group will continue to expand above their potential growth rates this year and next before decelerating, while growth in emerging market and developing economies will rise before leveling off. For most countries, current favorable growth rates will not last. Policymakers should seize this opportunity to bolster growth, make it more durable, and equip their governments better to counter the next downturn."

    Content: "Die Ausgabe reflektiert nicht nur die Diskurse der letzten 50 Jahre aus heutiger Sicht, sondern zeigt auch am Beispiel aktueller Praktiken auf, welche Perspektiven die Architektur als gesellschaftliche Praxis haben kann. So wie die Geschichte hilft, die Gegenwart zu verstehen, bringt uns die Gegenwart dazu, die Geschichte neu zu lesen und zu rekonfigurieren. Schließlich liegt die Kraft des Neuen auch darin, zuvor verborgene Aspekte der Vergangenheit sichtbar zu machen. Die Ausgabe, publiziert in Kooperation mit dem Az W, ist Zeugnis unserer tiefen Überzeugung, dass Architektur ein politisches Medium ist." -- "The edition not only reflects the discourses of the last 50 years from today's perspective, but also shows, using the example of current practices, which perspectives architecture can have as a social practice. Just as history helps to understand the present, the present makes us reread and reconfigure history. After all, the power of the new also lies in making previously hidden aspects of the past visible. The issue, published in cooperation with the Az W, is testimony to our deep conviction that architecture is a political medium."
    Content: "Prägen Menschen Institutionen oder Institutionen den Menschen? Diese Frage hat eine starke politische Dimension, wie wir derzeit in den USA erleben. Doch nicht nur in der großen Politik, sondern auch im Kleinen kommt es auf die Haltung der Personen an, die einer Einrichtung ihre politische Ausrichtung verleihen. Zwei Personen, die zwei wichtige Institutionen und damit den Architekturdiskurs der letzten Jahrzehnte jede auf ihre Weise geprägt haben, bilden den inhaltlichen Hintergrund dieser Ausgabe: Dietmar Steiner, der von 1993 bis 2016 das Architekturzentrum Wien leitete, und Nikolaus Kuhnert, der seit 45 Jahren die ARCH+ als Redakteur und Mitherausgeber geprägt hat. Beide haben Architektur­politik betrieben, aus der tiefen Überzeugung heraus, dass Architektur ein politisches Medium ist. Über diese Haltung haben wir, statt eines Editorials, ein Gespräch mit Nikolaus Kuhnert geführt. Dieses Heft erscheint in Kooperation mit dem Az W aus Anlass der Pensionierung von Dietmar Steiner sowie des 50-jährigen Jubiläums der ARCH+, die 1967 gegründet wurde. Es reflektiert anhand der von Karoline Mayer, Sonja Pisarik und Katharina Ritter kuratierten Ausstellung Am Ende: Architektur und des 20. Wiener Architektur Kongresses nicht nur die Diskurse der letzten 50 Jahre aus heutiger Sicht, sondern zeigt auch am Beispiel aktueller Praktiken auf, welche Perspektiven die Architektur als gesellschaftliche Praxis haben kann." -- "Do people shape institutions or institutions? This question has a strong political dimension, as we are currently seeing in the United States. Not only in big politics, but also on a small scale, it depends on the attitude of the people who give an institution its political orientation. Two people who have shaped two important institutions and thus the architectural discourse of the last few decades each in their own way form the background of this issue: Dietmar Steiner, who headed the Architekturzentrum Wien from 1993 to 2016, and Nikolaus Kuhnert, who has been the ARCH + as editor and co-editor. Both pursued architectural politics out of the deep conviction that architecture is a political medium. Instead of an editorial, we talked to Nikolaus Kuhnert about this attitude. This issue is published in cooperation with the Az W on the occasion of Dietmar Steiner's retirement and the 50th anniversary of ARCH +, which was founded in 1967. Based on the exhibition At the End: Architecture and the 20th Vienna Architecture Congress curated by Karoline Mayer, Sonja Pisarik and Katharina Ritter, it not only reflects the discourses of the last 50 years from today's perspective, but also uses current practices to show which perspectives the Architecture as a social practice."
    Note: EXHIBITIONS AND CONFERENCE NOTE: published on the occasion of the exhibition and the 20th Wiener Architekturkongresses, both with the title "Am Ende: Architektur. Zeitreisen 1959-2019", held at Architektur Zentrum Wien, October 2016 - March 2017 (exhibition), 18-20 November 2016 (congress)
