Summary, etc. "Building Sharjah is one of the most engaging and thorough examinations of the history of modernization in the United Arab Emirates. Nearly 600 images from dozens of sources, mostly unpublished until now, in addition to more than 60 featured projects and newly commissioned contributions from 17 writers chart how modernist ambitions came together to engineer a global city.<br/>Sharjah’s tremendous potential enticed an international cast of experts to create a bold, new city. As their projects continue to disappear from the city’s landscape, this book sets out to preserve them through previously unpublished photographs and documents. New writing chronicles how local and newly arrived residents arranged the designed, concrete environment into a home. Beyond just a local artifact, this book examines the confident promises made by global practices of urbanization.<br/><br/>Research: Reem Khorshid, Azza Abou Alam, Noura Al Mahmoud. <br/><br/>Contributors: Ammar Al Attar; Mohamed Elshahed; Roberto Fabbri; Farah Fayyad; Reem Khorshid; Michael Kubo; Hind Mezaina; Mona El-Mousfy; Hammad Nasar; Sultan Sooud Al Qassemi; Talal Al-Rashoud; Todd Reisz; Abdullah Moaswes; Alia Al-Sabi; K.V.
