This lecture delves into the critical analysis of modernism, post-modernism, and pre-modernism in architecture and philosophy, exploring the anti-modernist positions of young and old conservatives, and neo-conservatives. It discusses the evolution of the concept of historical heritage, the challenges of preservation, and the ideological conflicts in restoration practices. The lecture also reflects on the importance of reconstructing urban environments with a long-term vision, emphasizing the need for a unified approach to preservation. Through the lens of architectural and urban heritage, it contemplates the role of heritage in contemporary societies and the global implications of conservation efforts.
