Abstract

The article begins by making an analysis of the negative effect that those building regulations that were designed to encourage and reward the pulling down or refurbishing of old buildings have had on the centre of Madrid. It goes on to look into alternative strategies aimed at scheduling the city and the way in which these have become concrete planning measures. The evolution towards such thinking is broken down into three phases: a) a growing awareness of the.problem giving rise to the first emergency measures, these being markedly 'defensive' and expressed in a series of 'protective' planning norms. b) a diversification of scheduling measures and a beginning being made in the field of 'positive' interventio n based policies founded upon notions of overall urban rehabilitation. c) a synthesis and consolidation of the afore-mentioned, encapsulated in the adoption within the terms of the new General Plan for the city of the guiding idea of its existing fabric's being recuperated. The notion of recuperation can thus be said to have become a basic constituand rather than an emergency standby in city thinking.
