An excellent survey of research on urban history offering an introduction to the development and methods used in various countries with a list of resources and facilities available to urban historians.
La complejidad de los procesos de producción del espacio urbano-regional requiere del conocimiento de diversidad de aproximaciones teóricas y de prácticas urbanas y, asimismo, de diversas metodologías de la planificación, aún hoy en permanente construcción. En ese sentido, se busca en autores del pasado y presente indicios para mejorar la comprensión de la organización social, espacial y ambiental del territorio y sus aglomerados urbanizados. En este trabajo, se presenta una revisión sintética de diversas concepciones y prácticas, pensada como una guía sistematizada de los distintos temas involucrados en el estudio de las ciudades, y que remite a los distintos autores que desarrollan en profundidad cada temática. Es seguramente incompleta y, por obvias razones, revisa someramente u omite el desarrollo de algunos aspectos y autores, aunque es posible de ser ampliada acudiendo a la bibliografía seleccionada para cada uno de los temas tratados. En este trabajo, se presenta una revisión sintética de diversas concepciones y prácticas, pensada como una guía sistematizada de los distintos temas involucrados en el estudio de las ciudades, y que remite a los distintos autores que desarrollan en profundidad cada temática.

In recent times what has become known as "the case of Medellín " has generated a growing interest in the international community. These urban transformation that Medellín has experimented have become a focus of attention and reference for experts in many fields, around the world. The book ́Medellin: Environment, Urbanism and Society ́, that now published the Center for Urban and Environmental Studies, Urbam, of EAFIT University is a testimony of the value given by our culture to the accomplishments of the city, to the idea of the public sphere and the growing relationship between the technical sphere and the political sphere, understood in the broad sense as a form of disciplinary knowledge and construction of civil society. This book brings together a knowledge of the city from multiple perspectives; knowledge that is, without any doubt, impressive for its extension and profoundity, as well as for its capacity to combine objective data with conceptual reflections about the scope and impact of the different perspectives concerning the theme of urban transformation and the different actors that have participated in such processes. The book weaves a broad net over the city, its history and development, adopting a multidisciplinary vision. I think that this will be the first step in creating a speech that might finally liberate itself from the strict disciplinary boundaries, building a trans-disciplinary perspective that can amplify the urban dimension of the city. This is the beginning of a profound and complex reflection that is, at the same time, a project of knowledge and an instrument of action and participation.

One of the major challenges of urban development has been reconciling the way cities develop with the mounting evidence of resource depletion and the negative environmental impacts of predominantly urban-based modes of production and consumption. This book aims to re-politicise the relationship between urban development, sustainability and justice, and to explore the tensions emerging under real circumstances, as well as their potential for transformative change. For some, cities are the root of all that is unsustainable, while for others cities provide unique opportunities for sustainability-oriented innovations that address equity and ecological challenges. This book is rooted in the latter category, but recognises that if cities continue to evolve along current trajectories they will be where the large bulk of the most unsustainable and inequitable human activities are concentrated. By drawing on a range of case studies from both the global South and global North, this book is unique in its aim to develop an integrated social-ecological perspective on the challenge of sustainable urban development. Through the interdisciplinary and original research of a new generation of urban researchers across the global South and North, this book addresses old debates in new ways and raises new questions about sustainable urban development. .
