restrictive guidelines being put into place though. Le Monde, a French daily newspaper that has a reputation for being the most widely respected newspaper in the world, published an article on July 27th of 2016 regarding this topic. In this article, Jerome Fenoglio, the director of Le Monde, informs readers of the decision they have made moving forward regarding their publications. This decision, is that Le Monde will no longer publish the names or photographs of those who commit terroristic acts. Fenoglio states their reasoning behind this is “to avoid possibly posthumous glorification effects” that typical reporting does (Fenoglio). This is a monumental step forward and due to Le Monde’s decision, both a French affiliate of CNN and another large newspaper La Croix have both joined them in their progressive step forward. While some newspapers have joined Le Monde’s in their decision, other journalists disagree. Mhamed Krichen who is a television anchor for the Arabic channel of Al Jazeera was quoted saying, “I don 't think this is a good idea because our job as journalists is to give the full picture as much as we can -- meaning words and also photos” (McKenzie). While I agree with Krichen’s perspective on the situation, are journalists really losing vital parts of the “picture” if they do not include the perpetrator’s name and photographs? Charlie Beckeet is another journalist who commented about the decision of Le Monde. Beckett is the director of Polis, a center for…

writes or, as I apply it in this paper, the architect builds, is an aesthetic and ethical choice based on their formal approach in treating the material. Material The material is an embodied evidence of culture. Its investigation helps to trace the early stage of development and proliferation of certain ideas. Soviet new architecture is known for its material: reinforced concrete. Concrete had its long history, but it was long forgotten after the Roman Empire fall. It was rediscovered by…

My arms were killing me. In an effort to distract myself from the pain, I began to mentally go through my favorite scenes from Harry potter, but even the thought of my favorite book couldn’t keep my mind off my discomfort for long. Huffing, I lugged the water-filler bucket uphill, careful not to spill too much of its precious contents. That would mean another trek downhill and I’ve had enough of that for one day. I brightened up when I neared my destination- a simple hut made of mud and clay,…

Architectural Beauty The architectural debate about symmetry and proportion As Vitruvius said, there are three principles of assessing an architecture, which are “durability, convenience, and beauty ”.

So we could confirm that the beauty is a widely accepted requisite element of architecture. In terms of the beauty, most of the time it is related to visual…

Imagine a world where you had to earn your place in society. You had limited resources and the rest of the world looked you down upon. There was no respect, no dignity, just survival. Poverty, sickness, pangs of hunger, and death of loved ones were all you knew. While the people suffered greatly, the upper class had an abundance of resources and was sapping the life out of the lower class. This world spoken of was not fiction, but reality for those in the era of the French Revolution, and in…

The book follows his fight to practice what the public sees as modern architecture, which he considers to be superior, despite an establishment focused on tradition-worship. In the book Architecture's New Media: Principles, Theories, and Methods of…

Greenhalgh’s features of the Pioneer phase (such as Social Morality, Technology and Anti-historicism) will also be looked at in relation to how and why The Radiant City was conceptualised and designed. As the idea of The Radiant City was conceived in the 1930s (and by Modernist…
