Editor’s: Participationism avant la lettre: looking back to past experience

Post de: Cosmin Caciuc

Participationism is a historiographical construct inspired by mid 1960s’ anthropology and social theories. About twenty years before theorizing, by 1945, Hassan Fathy was testing “participationism” within New Gourna project in Luxor, Egypt.
