Abstract

Currently, we are becoming conscious that excessively technocratic urban planning operations generate a response of indifference from the citizen, without really showing better results than other less closed methods. This article presents various approaches that discuss about the usefulness of a low definition of reality and its planning. It is concluded that an urban planning with a more infrastructural and less finalist focus shows some qualities that tend toward improving social conditions and toward a real democratization of the regulatory processes of urban planning.

Key words: Post-cyber-urban planning, low definition, infrastructural urban planning.
