Estudio de la complejidad en procesos urbanos emergentes: regeneración urbana de espacios vacantes a través de procesos informales

Abstract

This research examines the ability of urban planning to accommodate emerging urban management systems. The objective of this thesis is to describe these procedures and establish how such studied cases (associated to alternative management of public space) occur or not under these concepts. To achieve this goal, we have tried to make an exhaustive journey through diverse experiences of current altered mode of urban management to provide solid principles to devise new forms of urban management. The cases studied are Esta es una Plaza, Campo de Cebada and La Tabacalera, in Madrid. Therefore, the goal is not to classify the most important interventions in urban matters, but to discover a structure, an order for the disorder, a taxonomy in those proceedings to allow reformulate existing forms of public management.
