"First translation into English on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the publication of the General Theory of Urbanization by Ildefons Cerdà, an essential work on urban development" -- Publisher's website.
Includes bibliographical references.
Introduction / Mercè Conesa, President of the Diutació de Barcelona -- Cerdà: universal and contemporary / Damià Calvet, Director of the Institut Català del Sòl (Catalan Land Institute) -- Urbanization: the science of making cities / Vicente Guallart, architect -- General Theory of Urbanization.
In 1867 Ildefons Cerdà published his "Teoria general de la urbanització." In this text, the "science of building cities", understood as a phenomenon, became a new discipline with a broad economic, social and cultural impact on the life of the people of the city. Coinciding with 150 years since its publication, its first translation into English is being presented along with the publishing online urbanization.org with the statistics transformed into interactive graphics and open data, with the aim of expanding the knowledge of Cerdà's work and encouraging debate on the process of "urbanization" in the future.
