In 1995, after hearing Madeleine Albright say on national television that she felt sacrificing 500,000 children to punish Saddam Hussein was “worth it,” Quaker pacifist Joseph Olejak became a political activist. As a form of civil disobedience, he refused to pay income tax, since his tax dollars would go to fund a war he opposed. This was the beginning of a twenty-year journey towards peace–initially by non-compliance with the military industrial complex. Sentenced to 26 weekends in the country jail for failure to pay income taxes, Olejak kept a journal and wrote about his experiences, as well as his growing awareness of peace, justice, and the U.S. prison system.

Auf dieser Karte bilden wir alle Skigebiete des Alpenraums mit einer Gesamtpistenlänge von mindestens 25 Kilometern ab.Grafisch wird die Ausbreitung der Skigebiete begrenzt durch die äußeren Lifte oder Pisten dargestellt.Wir definieren ein Skigebiet als Gesamtheit aller zusammenhängenden Pisten und Lifte, die man auf Skiern erreichen kann. Ist beispielsweise ein Bus nötig, um zu einem anderen Lift zu kommen, handelt es sich für uns um zwei Skigebiete. Daraus entstehen einige wenige Abweichungen zu öffentlichen Zählweisen, etwa im Fall von Sellaronda. Wenn verschiedene Skigebiete zu einer definierten Region, wie z.B. der Zugspitz Arena, gehören, vermerken wir diese in Klammern hinter den Namen der Gebiete.

A NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD WINNERTHE POSTHUMOUS MASTERWORK FROM "ONE OF THE GREATEST AND MOST INFLUENTIAL MODERN WRITERS" (JAMES WOOD, THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW)Composed in the last years of Roberto Bolaño's life, 2666 was greeted across Europe and Latin America as his highest achievement, surpassing even his previous work in its strangeness, beauty, and scope.

"When Mallory Blessing's son, Link, receives her deathbed instructions to call a number on a slip of paper in her desk drawer, he certainly does not expect Jake McCloud to answer. It's the late spring of 2020 and Jake's wife, Ursula de Gournsey, is the frontrunner in the upcoming Presidential election. Link is sure there's been a mistake. How do Mallory and Jake know each other? Flash back to the sweet summer of 1993: Mallory has just inherited a beachfront cottage on Nantucket from her aunt, and she agrees to host her brother Cooper's bachelor party. Cooper's college friend Jake McCloud, attends, and Jake and Mallory form a bond that will persevere -- through marriage, children, and Ursula's stratospheric political rise -- until Mallory learns she's dying."--Back cover.

Alejandro de la Sota ruft in Spanien wahrscheinlich mehr leidenschaftliche Reaktionen hervor als jeder andere moderne spanische Architekt. Sein Werk ist Gegenstand von vielen Pilgerreisen, die Architekten und Studenten auf der Suche nach der einzigartigen Arbeitsweise des Meisters, nach einer Begegnung mit einer fast magischen Offenbarung unternehmen. Obwohl er in Spanien so überaus geschätzt, ist er im Ausland ziemlich unbekannt. Diese Ausgabe von 2G präsentiert eine Auswahl von Gebäuden und Projekten dieses vergessenen modernen Meisters, von seinen ersten Werken, die nach dem spanischen Bürgerkrieg gebaut wurden, wie das Dorf Esquivel, über seine Meisterwerke, wie die Sporthalle der Schule Maravillas und das Gebäude der Provinzregierung in Tarragona, bis hin zu seinen späteren, weniger bekannten Werken, wie das Postgebäude in León oder die nicht gebauten Häuser am Meer auf Mallorca. Introduction: Kersten Geers, Jelena Pancevac and Moisés Puente. Text: Alejandro de la Sota.

BAST have taken a proactive attitude to research in order to experiment with the diverse potentialities of each project. At each step of the design phase, they propose multiple different solutions. As a result, they do not follow a set formal method; instead, their projects go through an evolutionary process. BAST's architecture practice is located in Toulouse, France. The architects recall ideas of modern assemblage and montage: the structural unit is challenged by the superposition of logics, façade layers, colliding structures, sections. The overall logic derives from resemblances, things that look like something else, but are not exactly what we expect. These elements are mixed together. Controlling the resulting combination requires a very clear idea, because otherwise the building site can soon descend into chaos. The structural principle provides the logic, and the design sequence drives together these elements. Once the design principle has been defined, regardless of whether the window frame is here or there, the catalyst is already in place. The fragments can then be assembled with an eye to a promising future. Conversation with Jo Tailleau and Tiphaine Abenia. Photos by BAST.

nsights into an architectural practice that combines art and technology, building and new ideas on building Baukunst's architectural practice has always maintained a high level of abstraction. Projects begin as theoretical propositions and remain so, regardless of their realisation on site. Built or unbuilt, they all exist within some kind of Platonic space to which the architects keep returning. The selection of works featured in this issue is not an archive of their work, but rather a research atlas in which the montage of architectural drawings, site photographs, models, and digital images speaks of the latent ideas germinated and tested across their projects.

The award-winning Mexican architect analyses two centuries of evolution of the built element with the greatest impact on the planet: the house. Including 110 coloured illustrations. In this study, Fernanda Canales analyses the evolution of the house over the last two centuries through projects, exhibitions, and books. My House, Your City expands the meaning of "house" by dismantling three erroneous assumptions - the house as a place of rest separate from work, the house as an object of private property and the house as a sanctuary for the nuclear family - in favour of other formats of belonging, coexistence and use.
