Eine Plattform für die Wissenschaft: Bauingenieurwesen, Architektur und Urbanistik
Over the past few decades, the architectural heritage of the Modern Movement has appeared more at risk than that of any other period. This built inheritance, which glorifies the dynamic spirit of the Machine Age, employed advanced technology that has not always endured long-term stresses; and the functions which the buildings originally met have changed substantially. Docomomo aims at acting as watchdog whenever important Modern Movement buildings anywhere are under threat in various ways, including by exchanging ideas relating to conservation technology, history and education; fostering interest in the ideas and heritage of the Modern Movement beyond their own circle; and reminding those in power of their responsibilities towards this recent architectural inheritance.
