About this book

Professors-researchers from the Department of Architecture of the University of the Americas Puebla offer in this collective work a series of texts that move between reflection and practice and integrate a "manifesto of manifestos", that is, a volume that presents the ideas that portray them in the current moment and circumstance. Although each of the chapters corresponds to a personal position regarding their work as architects, academics and researchers, the objective is to generate a collective vision about what they do and think. Beyond putting on the table their postulates and the way they do things, this work seeks to underline what distinguishes and identifies them. The book is divided into two parts: the first offers a theoretical-conceptual approach focused on teaching and the exercise of architecture; the second, written about practice, with case studies and experiences that promote a specific reflection on architectural work.
