The research aims in understanding the figure of John Ruskin in the XIX century Victorian age, and how his particular ideas about architecture and production affected his latter ideas on social economics and social politics in his mature age. Historically, architecture is here understood as the linking practice that moves the victorian science man from the arts sphere to the socially involved economic reforms. Moreover the interest is to understand how the practice of this discipline is to relate to society and the collective, being if it is, an individual understating of reality in the first place.
