This book summarizes the history of Architectural Education in Brazil and in the UK, interpreting its relationship with the political, social and cultural life. It emphasizes how the pedagogical approach affects society showing a strong influence of cartesianism and positivism through an “ocularcentric” approach. Some examples are given on how contemporary Brazilian Architecture incorporated the over value of the sense of vision, criticizing its implications on teaching.
