Abstract

How to apply an effective and practical urbanism in the 21st century? Above all, in a moment full of uncertainty, liquid, global and of alleged exit from the so-called Gobal Crisis. Indeed, there are three contextual factors that explain many of the conflicts of urbanism in the first quarter of our century. In the first place, the macroeconomic evidences opens the way to emerge from the Global Crisis, which in our view implies an approach of changing the cycle. Therefore, and secondly, a selective process of the investment object is observed, translated into the adaptation of the real demand to the investment, and to a large extent, to the differential and secure financing. Third, although the previous arguments show the remarkable recovery and change in the investment function, there is a dissimilarity in the regulatory function of the public administrations, which, in short, are the regulatory force of the urban impulse.
