La Arquitectura española del segundo franquismo y el Boletín de la Dirección General de Arquitectura (1946-1957)

Spanish architecture responds to the geo-strategic recomposition process after the II World War. In the fifties, after autarchy, it focused on economic development and the cultural and technological transformation. The Boletin Informativo de la Direccion General de Arquitectura portrays the events of architectural renovation, its modernization and internationalization up to 1957. To examine the architecture produced under Franco regime's second era we must understand the discourse produced at the time, the assimilation of architecture with the artistic innovation, the acknowledgment of outstanding international milestones, and the most powerful architectural works uniquely exemplified through architectural production. This article continues the one published at this magazine's previous issue: Arquitectura y politica en Espana a traves del Boletin de la Direccion General de Arquitectura ( 1946-1957), Ra. Revista de Arquitectura, 15, 2013, pp. 35-46.
