Objectives

The aim of this module is to stimulate in the student an understanding of the mechanisms of urban land production in its technical aspects pertaining to the conceptual domain of planning and the various dimensions of the theoretical debate currently underway within the discipline.
Special attention will be paid to the relationship between planning instruments and the building of the consensus necessary for their implementation, taking as reference the situation in Portugal and seeking to relate the subject to the legal and material means available in the planning process.
Finally, the question of decision as the ability to define objectives, reconcile uncertainties, establish consensus and identify urban forms will be introduced.

Teaching methods and learning activities

An assignment will be proposed that will involve the identification, explanation and description of a problem concerned with the functioning of the urban system. The aim is to involve the student in the problematic introduced as the objective of this discipline and in the organisation of the observation of problems in the area of urban planning.
A second piece of practical work will also be required, involving critical reflection upon the themes contained in the suggested bibliography.

Evaluation Type

Distributed evaluation without final exam
