    Encore trop emprunte de passion, l'histoire coloniale se confond souvent avec une histoire des dominations indépendante des histoires nationales. Ce travers a été récemment dénoncé par l'historien Jean-Frédéric Schaub, qui pose la question du bien fondé de la catégorie « étude coloniale » et invite les chercheurs à adopter une approche transversale et à éviter d'aborder cette histoire comme une « catégorie d'étude qui continue à se tenir à l'écart de l'histoire nationale ou métropolitaine ». Ainsi, l'idée est de réunir des contributions qui étudient les permanences, les influences, les ruptures territoriales, urbaines, et architecturales (typologie et styles), autrement dit les faits coloniaux (évolution du territoire et des villes) considérés en lien avec le passé -et non comme des événements totalement exogènes-, et les choix actuels influencés, ou non, par ses faits. Le panel fera se rencontrer des chercheurs qui travaillent sur l'urbanisme et l'architecture à l'époque coloniale, de manière connectée avec la période pré-coloniale et la période post-coloniale jusqu'à nos jours.

    were built for Italian and Libyan families during the fascist occupation? Were all the planned projects by the regime really implemented? What is the current state of conservation and how are the structures being utilised today? The purpose of this book is to clarify these uncertainties which are still associated with this architecture today. From a scientific perspective, the results of historical and archival research aim to reconstruct and explain the mechanisms of constructions and the management of territory as well as the architects involved and details of the village projects. The other perspective presented takes the form of easy to use charts which summarise both objective data and theoretical evaluations of each centre. An original and novel work composed of both useful and important information concerning the current use and conservation of this unique architecture, accompanied by rich illustrations which allow a direct comparison of the structures at the time of construction and their contemporary condition today.were built for Italian and Libyan families during the fascist occupation?
