Whose Order, Whose Planning?

Zionism, as a modern nationalist movement, is inherently colonial, shaping Tel Aviv into a colonial city that reflects its globalized Israeli identity. The book 'Whose Order, Whose Planning?' explores how the Levant Fair site's modern architecture introduced innovation to Tel Aviv in the 1930s, but post-1948 state establishment transformed urban planning and memory narratives, including Holocaust remembrance. It examines the interplay between Zionist ideologies, colonial discourse, and architectural evolution, offering a critical lens on Tel Aviv's urban development as a symbol of both modernism and national identity.
