188-page document with eight chapters, focused on the crisis in the Japanese Democracy as it is reflected in the practice of architecture and the fictitious idea that high-rise buildings are inevitable. The Shiratori Plan was presented as the answer against this misconception. The intention was to further develop this document for a book to be published.
