Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The article reflects the intermediate results of the research conducted within the framework of the scientific project “Features of the development of architecture in Manchukuo (1932–1945)”. The main focus of the article is on government facilities built in the city of Changchun, which was the former capital of the puppet state of Manchukuo. The Japanese authorities organized a construction program that significantly influenced the development of the city and led to the creation of new infrastructure, as well as the construction of residential, commercial and administrative buildings. During this period, administrative buildings, government buildings, including the imperial palace, and various government institutions were built. Analysis of the selected objects made it possible to identify in them a reflection of the culture and ideology of the ruling regime. The article highlights the main trends in the design of objects of that period.
