Abstract

Readers of academic and cultural critic Owen Hatherley, whether of his books or his articles for the Guardian, will be acquainted with his expertise on modern architecture and popular culture. Hatherley makes a compelling argument that comprehends what he calls ‘austerity nostalgia’ as a predominant motif within contemporary politics as well as offering alternative ways to withstand the nostalgic jargon that softens the burden of the austerity measures
