Toti, Alessandro. 2024. “Reform or Revolution: Architectural Theory in West Berlin and Zurich (1967–72).” Architectural Theory Review, June, 1–20. doi:10.1080/13264826.2024.2356373.

The article explores the evolution of architectural and urban theory in the wake of the 1960s politicisation of the architecture faculties of TU Berlin and ETH Zürich. Focusing on Oswald Mathias Ungers, Jörn Janssen, and their students, it examines a symposium, an exhibition, and a seminar that shaped divergent perspectives on architectural theory.
