| The changes in production and consumption modes, and how capital, persons and goods move, are having a deep effect on the character of the cities. Global and local are intermingling in ways that could never be devised in traditional societies. The contemporary expression of the urban condition assumes multiple spatial configurations, as well in geographical as in qualitative terms, because of the new information and knowledge based economy; this means a clear departure from traditional configurations and demands new planning instruments and styles. From this perspective, I suggest a new approach to urbanism, aimed at transforming and recycling the existing city, as a way to address the challenges stemming from globalization, climate change and social transformation. This translates in a new approach to urban planning, as a flexible and technological innovation-friendly tool that can address the structural order of the city; ensuring a consistent integration of the environmental matters, housing, mobility, infrastructure... while remembering the need to cater to the real social needs and a sensitivity to local conditions. | |
