Abstract

The paper opens by stating that Man’s action upon Nature has changed in its scale throughout the period
of his endeavour in this field. Due above all to the metropolitan shift within the Basque Country of late, a
municipal approach it is here held is no longer adequate now-a-days to resolving the basic questions that
Society there must face up to when it comes to organizing its physical essence and a territorial organizing
of this is thus urged using supra-municipal scales to effect the same. The proposals derives from research
that investigated Town and Country planning over the last fifty years and gave special attention to the
!939-1956 Plan for the Autarquia, the 1956-1979 Urban Expansion Plan, the early democratic planning of
the 80s and the planning for the Territory of the 90’s. The paper is rounded out by considerations upon
the material it has offered for consideration.
