moreThis book presents an inquiry into the invention of innovative ways of addressing some contemporary Latin American cities and territories design problems. The aim is to highlight the contemporary relevance of the postcolonial urbanism and its subjects intended as specific socio–spatial conditions characterized by precise urbanities, economies, social relationships, by conflict–related rural/wilderness/urban realms. It is an attempt to conceptualize and constructing them as a project. The hypothesis is that projects and researches presented in this publication try to demonstrate some relevant elements in the construction of
a different discourse within traditional postcolonial urban theories providing test cases for the elaboration of innovative planning and design strategies.
