Las repercusiones urbanísticas y territoriales de un modelo agotado de crecimiento económico
Abstract
The occupation of land reflects the economic and social changes in a territory. The maintenance in time of a territorial space organized according to oversized municipal urban plans, without any or with poor territorial planning for the whole autonomic territory or for areas with a subregional scale, together with the political and professional incompetence to keep a balance in the territorial occupation could not be but the most explosive cocktail regarding what has happened in cities and outskirts for the last decades. We analyze the urban and territorial transformations to what the economic model of development has driven us and that we are keeping on time. The result of the process of dispersed urban growth has placed urban fact in front of a new phase which is being called the «urbanization of the countryside» or the «urban countryside» where rural and urban are intertwined not being possible for them to live apart.
