The twentieth century architecture had numerous and complex facets. In addition to the expressive renewal, a significant peculiarity is its relationship with politics. The built space was a privileged means for the communication and dissemination of the totalitarianisms of the twentieth century, which embarked on the path of exhibition and the analogy between political firmness and constructive solidity. Over time, the expressive charge of power was sometimes homologated to less identifying models, in some cases adopting purely modern languages in contrast with nationalistic ideals. Similarities or exceptions are today decisive in the moment of the recovery of these architectures for which it is necessary to safeguard the relevance of figurative concepts as essentiality of their original meaning.
Keywords: architecture and totalitarian regime; modern architecture; analogies and differences
