Abstract

The author explains how Town Planning for Pinar del Rio has gone through several adaptive changes to answer those dictated by Cuba's economic cycles . The ends and means to such planning have also undergone change, we are told . Methodological paradigms have evolved from rationalist scientism which seeks to control human activity to thus build an ideal society but which ignores the demands of context, towards taking inter-party negotiation a the basic premise from which to undertake flexible and competitive Town Planning in the light of context and a fluctuating economic cycle .
