The book is an investigation of the multilayered field of urbanism practices in the European context. A series of seminars implemented a dialogue between a Scholar and a Practitioner from seven Europan territories (Spain, France, Belgium, The Netherlands, Denmark, Greece, Germany). It starts from an anthology of seminal texts on planning by classics (from Vittorio Gregotti to Rem Koolhaas) presented as a shared approach to urbanism as a reflective practice whose subject matter is the critical reinterpretation of the form of the world we live in. Then the discussions scanned forms of thinking and ways of designing, ideas and concepts, tools and alliances that respond to changing urban questions in the European context. The book aims to contribute to the current public debate on the links between concrete spaces, society, economy, ecology, and politics, detecting elements of continuity and novelty.
