Abstract

For the autor, I. Cerdá's death brought with it a profound crisis of continuity and theoretical thinking for Spanish urbanism. The period of the Restoration is indeed seen to have seen some coming to grips with questions undecided in the previous period such as City Centre renewal or the up-dating of the legislation upon the extending of cities [ensanches] though all in all a profound skewing of legal and urbanistic matters is felt to have soon set in. The paper considers that it is precisely at the moment when Spanish society undertook its urbanization process for real that new corpus of planning law that aimed at going beyond the limitations of what had been enacted as to City Centre Renewal and the Extending of cities came up against vested interests of a institutional or social and economic nature. The planning legal situation is seen to have had to wait for the Land Use Law of 1956 for its renewal.
