    Any Magazine (1993-2000) and the Post-Critical Transition in Architectural Theory
    (2023) Sökülmez, Buse Ezgi; Erten, Erdem
    This thesis examines the influence of ANY (Architecture New York) Magazine (1993-2000) in shaping the debates in architectural theory between critical and postcritical perspectives in the 1990s and 2000s. Dissecting ANY's contributors, its interaction with the construction and culture industries, its thematic and visual narratives, and its coverage, the research aims to reveal how the periodical mediated a significant transition in architectural theory. This transition involved a move away from a purely critical approach rooted in Continental theories characterized by ideological and post-structuralist critique towards a more practical, pragmatic, and solution-oriented architectural theory. The critical-to-post-critical transition was influenced by global technological, economic, and environmental changes, which prompted a reorientation of architectural theory towards real-world applications and pragmatic solutions. In analyzing ANY's influence in this transition through its contributors, its interaction with the construction and culture industries, its thematic and visual narratives, and its coverage, the research sheds light on the broader post-critical transition in architectural theory in the 1990s and the 2000s. Keywords: ANY Magazine, Post-Critical Architectural Theory, 1990s Architectural History and Theory, Critical-to-Post-Critical Transition, Architectural Media
