A monument to Swiss-French architect Charles-Edouard Jeanneret, better known as Le Corbusier, is pictured in central Moscow on Oct. 15, 2015. Le Corbusier is one of the founders of modern architecture. English philosopher Roger Scruton has argued that modern buildings are designed with a megalomanic zeal, an example of economist Thomas Sowell's idea of unconstrained vision.
