Your question really pertains to architectural judgement. There is a book by Samir Younes called Imperfect City that addresses that topic in depth. Here is a lecture discussing some of the ideas in the book.
This is a point that is discussed well in the book The Imperfect City: On Architectural Judgment. The book pulls apart this idea that architecture can represent politics and comes to the conclusion that we all already know. That such an idea is preposterous and is like blaming the color red when a bull charges you. Classical architecture cannot embody politics, which is why you always have differing political bodies utilizing the same architectural structures.
