Abstract

In the past years, the progressive consolidation of an “emerging ‘urbanistic’ culture” has opened a discussion regarding the real relevance of large urban interventions, and especially the fact that these projects tend to generate isolated architectural objects, with no reference to the environment or the context, which promotes dispersion and territorial fragmentation. This discussion acts as a call to reconsider Michel de Certau’s position on the importance of strategic and tactical social praxis that originate from a variety of stake-holders involved in the production of urban space. In this regard, this article explores the gradually increasing convergence between the strategic perspectives and the tactical approaches that allow us to take a critical and reflexive look at urban projects, promoting a greater understanding of the environment and context where they are inserted.
