dc.description.abstractThe architecture of so-called 'first' and the 'third' world countries reflects their different characteristics and dynamics: their economical, political, social and cultural dispensations as well as their patterns of collection, production, and consumption. Yet do 'developed' and 'underdeveloped' technologies have to conflict? The input of information and knowledge should not be imposed but shared. Where the regional culture and resources are taken into account, the resultant architecture is rooted and functionally relevant. The promotion of well-executed South African architecture with so-called 'underdeveloped' elements in 'developed' technologies can make a positive contribution to global development and community upliftment.en
dc.description.abstractAFRIKAANS: Die argitektuur van sogenaamde 'eerste-' en 'derdewereldlande' weerspieel telkens kenmerke van eiesoortigheid en verandering in ekonomiese, politieke, sosiale en kulturele bedelings, asook in gebruike van insameling, verwerking en verbruik. Is 'ontwikkelde' en 'onderontwikkelde' tegnologie nogtans onversoenbaar? Inligting en kunde behoort uitgeruil te word, nie afgedwing word nie. Die produk van argitektuur is sinvol geborge en funksioneel relevant waar streekskultuur en hulpbronne inaggeneem word. Deur die bevordering van welgemaakte Suid-Afrikaanse argitektuur, met sogenaamde 'onderontwikkelde' elemente in 'ontwikkelde' tegnologie, kan 'n positiewe bydrae gemaak word tot algehele ontwikkeling en gemeenskapsverheffing.af

Czy 'nieprzemyslowe' i 'przemyslowe' technologie musza kolidowac? Wiadomosci i wiedza nie powinny byc narzucane tylko wspolnie kultywowane. Kiedy regionalna kultura i zasoby sa uwzgledniane w rezultacie mamy zakorzeniona dobrze funkejonujaca architecture. Promocja dobrej poludniowo-afrykanskiej architektury na bazie 'nieprzemyslowych, i 'przemyslowych' technologi moze miec pozytywny wklad do globalnego rozwoju i lepszego zycia spoleczenstw.po
