摘要

建筑不仅能够定义一个城市的身份，还能传达其建设者的价值观和愿望，这将是它最持久的遗产。历经千秋万代的伟大城市建筑成为文化财产，被列入“世界遗产”保护目录。本文介绍了在巴西首都巴西利亚设计新的美国大使馆的挑战和机遇。巴西利亚是世界遗产。目前的大使馆建于1960年，旨在通过遵循规划者的现代主义设计愿景，传达与美国及其东道国的合作。新大使馆的设计必须是为了反恐，传达民主理想，而且不能破坏世界遗产的文化财产价值。通过对美国国务院公使馆建筑历史的考察，本文提出了应对巴西利亚文化多样性的方法。

From Pax America to American exceptionalism, American security and beyond: U.S. Legation building in Brazil

ABSTRACT Architecture’s ability to not only define a city’s identity but also to convey the values and aspirations of its builders continues to be its most lasting legacy. Great civic architecture, which has endured throughout the ages, becomes cultural property, which is codified for protection as “World Heritage Sites.” This article presents the challenges and the opportunities of designing a new U.S. Embassy in Brasilia, the capital of Brazil and a World Heritage Site. Built in 1960, the current embassy was designed to convey collaboration with the USA and its host country by following the planners’ modernist design vision. The new embassy will have to be designed for counterterrorism, convey democratic ideals, and not undermine the cultural property value of the World Heritage Site. Through an examination of the Department of State’s history of legation building, the paper concludes by proposing ways that respond to the cultural diversity in Brasilia.
