Ordenación del territorio

Economic globalisation and the subsequent intensification of inter-city competition have profoundly changed urban governance. This is particularly evident in the field of urban spatial development. The change is often described as a shift from a managerial mode of governance to a more entrepreneurial mode, strongly characterised by risk-taking, innovation, a strong orientation toward the private sector and a strategic approach which focuses on economic growth.

This paper offers recommendations adderessed to European Commision about sustainable urban policy. Although these recommendations are addressed to Commision, they are also intented to have resonance for national goverments and for local and regional authorities and to facilitate action by them.
