The Academy of Architecture awarded the 2nd prize for the architecture book to Valéry Didelon for his book La Déconstruction de la ville européenne. Euralille 1988-1995. Éditions de La Villette. 2021.
In this book, the author revisits Euralille, a controversial urban planning operation of the late twentieth century. In particular, he explores the logic of the neoliberal construction of the city through the actions and positions of three of its main protagonists: the architect Rem Koolhaas, the mayor Pierre Mauroy and the developer Jean-Paul Baïetto.
