      abstract = {Author of The Japanese House, Material Culture in the  Modern Home. The book is the first to trace the history of  the Japanese public housing program balancing on the rarely  explored edge between architecture and ethnography. In the  1960s, when Japan's postwar economy boomed, architects and  urban planners inspired by Western modernism and Soviet  mass-housing created danchi clusters of uniform multi-story  apartment buildings with standardized interiors, designed  to shape new modernized lifestyles for populations turned  into refugees by the war. Over time, as Japan's society  aged and the economy began to stagnate, these structures  have become a popular backdrop for contemporary horror  movies and a burden for the government. In this closely  researched monograph, Tatiana Knoroz sheds unexpected light  on the fate of danchis nation-transforming interiors, and  proposes a multidisciplinary research method for their  ongoing regeneration, which will be of interest to  architects, historians and anthropologists. Tatiana Knoroz  is a scholar with a special interest in Japanese housing,  anthropology of lived space and built environment.},
