"After the war" and how we view it now

Long article that addresses the question of what architecture will look like after the end of World War II and provides an overview of the situation at the time the article was written. Kropholler is also discussed. Kloos is somewhat less direct in his criticism than earlier authors in De 8 and Opbouw, but Kloos, too, should have nothing to do with Kropholler's architecture, which he calls "old-fashioned" and "a regressive process, comparable to that of a neurotic child (or human!), who cannot 'cope' with his environment and now flees into the world of fairy tales (which is not to say, that e l k fairy tales mean flight)."
