Ground space that cannot be urbanized: an ambiguous description for a complex reality

Authors

Abstract

The article begins by questioning that territorial compartmentalization which is expressed by the standing classification of ground space and concludes that the most misguiding description offered by this is 'ground space that cannot be urbanized' as this is ascribed a totally negative value in planning documents when reference is made to an overall urban vision. Even when the description is applied within a rural context to differentiated cases in which an attempt is being made to protect areas, the morphological and typological aspects of the question tend to be exalted at the expense of all other considerations. Given this state of affairs, the article advocates for a greater analytic nicety which would bring to light that conflictive wealth of implications that marks rurai ground space at its pre-urban moment. While doing this, measures and methods are advanced by which the preservation of ecological and landscape values of such areas and an imaginative yet socially concious answer to the just human demands as might be made upon them could be kept in balance.
