Traditional Architecture..A redundant term?

I would propose that virtually every aspect of Architecture meets the literal definition of 'traditional' because it's best defined in view of its behavior and its influence...in my view virtually unchanged as a traditional translator of social attitudes and values.

Regardless of the shapes, its physical forms continue to reflect its established precedents and behavioral patterns, which in turn are still most often governed by forces beyond its control. Existing still at the whim of client and the mercy of money, Architecture seldom leads...He who pays the piper still calls the tune...and so constrained, it finds solace in studies of its heroes and history, scratching the itch of innovative vision in after hour's doodles; dreams tucked neatly in the bottom drawer...
The changing shapes of forms do not necessarily reflect the changing ideology of the practitioner...'modern' simply describes a different shape and element of form, and while it reflects some positive evolution of craft, for the most part, it continues a traditional posture and attitude...one born of an elite educated class whose dogma permeates its business model, wherein financial risk is borne by client and thereby most its true purpose to enable an empowered society, is lost...Artist chained to economic desires and necessities, its buildarts catering to monuments of Ego, shrines of religion, symbols of power, demonstrations of dynasty...more anthropological ornaments and artifacts that best illustrate the constants...like the stoic geological formations of the natural earth our change is ever present, but at a rates imperceptible to the naked eye of real social experience. The dramatic elements and shape of the forms we create, belie this truth...make us believe that such enlightened creations can only be delivered by an enlightened species in control of their own destiny. Architecture as a dominant 'shaper' of form is a partner to this deceptive portrayal...not by willful damage, (though it is perhaps a sin of omission) but in its traditional role as a craft dictated to by monetary systems it becomes a mirror of societal values... what else can it be?
No matter what we believe...it becomes increasingly obvious that we have to move a lot faster than our geological formations. Currently, our vast ice is moving more quickly than we are...Architecture is one crucial element we desperately need to break out of its traditional reactive role as service provider and become instead a proactive visionary leader of environmental and societal change.
Traditional Architecture can then be relegated to a definition everyone can understand as...'that old fashioned practice that got us here, but doesn't work anymore'
