Territory and heritage in the Ninth Conference of the Ibero-American Academic Council: Ideas and experiences for a new disciplinar culture

Abstract

The constant development and urbanization process that has taken place during the century has forced Urbanism to do constant readjustment depending on the physical and social consequences that this evolution that has prompted on the territorial and urban space.
This disciplinary response capacity to the development in cities –in themselves and their territorial relationships- seems to renovate today with new ideological approaches and territorial intervention premises formulated given the rather disheartening worldwide overview in which the urban fact manifests, each time with more strength, its transcendence over the economy and ecology of the diverse areas of the globe.
