Sažetak
Environmental protection that does not include protection from
building pollution can no longer be considered as environmental
protection. Building, deprived of the creative artistic process,
causes damage thus making building without architecture one of
the serious factors in environmental pollution. It has become
customary to call the following architecture: documentation,
blueprints, actions, procedures, regulations, urban planning
conditions, building permits and buildings – where there is no
architecture. Protection from devastation through building can be
based only on creating conditions for the development of highvalue
architecture. There is no other way. The task of politics is to
protect the environment and provide conditions for creating an
architecture of high values. Architectural devastation is originally
a social and spiritual disorder, whose consequences are then
realised in the environment. The subject of urban ecology and
other disciplines it is developing with, is the protection of the
environment from architectural devastation as well as removal of
causes leading to it which are none other than social and
spiritual disorders. In urban ecology it is necessary to develop
methods and register cases of devastation through building,
create data bases, include them in urban plans in the form of
annexes and develop salvage programmes. Urban ecology is
based and developed on the criticism of architecture because
cases have to be interpreted in thorough analyses. The causes of
these disorders have to be described and monitored through
social mechanisms and structures in order to repair the damage.
