520    ""Convergent Flux"" illustrates the contemporary 
       architectural and urban planning developments in South 
       Korea in the context of the country's considerable urban 
       density. In recent years South Korea, which long stood in 
       the shadow of the superpowers Japan and China, has surged 
       in economic terms. That said, industrialization and the 
       population explosion connected with it have created 
       enormous challenges for the country at the interface 
       between globalization and cultural identity. Some 10.5 
       million inhabitants live in the center of the capital 
       Seoul, while the metropolitan area includes around 25 
       million residents making it the second largest conurbation
       in the world after Tokyo. The result is high urban density,
       which spells an enormous demand for the more efficient use
       of space and encourages verticalization in architecture. 
       The publication outlines the current developments in South
       Korean architecture, urban development and landscape 
       architecture by examining 32 projects in detail. An in-
       depth view of contemporary South Korean architecture is 
       given by five essays that address topics such as the 
       fusion of tradition and the modern, the re-defining of so-
       called "social spaces" and the country's special 
       topographical situation. The authors are both architects, 
       trained at the Harvard Graduate School of Design.
