Pan Arab modernism 1968 2018 : the history of architectural practice in the Middle East Using Kuwait as a case study and Pan Arab Modernism as a lens this book comes to fill two voids in the literature on Middle Eastern architecture: one is in practice and the other is in history. The current practice of architecture in Kuwait the Gulf and the larger Middle East is typically a contextual and lacking any understanding of the local context. The architectural history on the other hand ignores the larger context of the Middle East and the influence of Pan Arabism is not configured into many analyses. Thus this project seeks to tackle both. By providing a [re]contextualizing of the architectural history of Kuwait and bringing forgotten protagonists back into the dialogue a nuanced reading of Pan Arab Modern architecture emerges
