Research paper thumbnail of Barcelona’s Urban Landscape

Journal of Urban History, Jun 23, 2009

The present article presents an account of relevant historical, political, economic, and social forces shaping Barcelona’s urban evolution from the medieval times until the 1970s. The urban history of Barcelona illustrates how the landscape of a fashionable city is the result of urban planning in conjunction with many social, economic, and political events that often produce unexpected results.

Con un creciente énfasis en políticas de desarrollo económico, a nivel de gobernabilidad de la ciudad de Barcelona, cabe destacar el énfasis que el Ayuntamiento otorga a la colaboración público-privada como herramienta de planificación. Esta colaboración contrasta con la escasa voluntad de inclusión de la participación ciudadana. El presente artículo argumenta que esta situación es el resultado de la respuesta local a la influencia de dos procesos diferentes pero complementarios. En primer lugar se analiza el peso del proceso de globalización en las características de la política local. En segundo lugar, utilizando categorías analíticas de la teoría de la regulación, se explora la identidad de los agentes claves y la evolución en la toma de decisiones en política urbanística que se inicia a mediados de ...

Research paper thumbnail of High-speed train integration in the urban fabric. The case of Segovia-Guiomar

Local scale authorities usually react by deploying planning and management resources to guarantee the best possible integration of new infrastructure in the local environment, striving to make sure that these new elements are coherent with the existing urban fabric and to maximise the level of accessibility generated by its presence. In this article, we examine the measures undertaken in Segovia and associated with the establishment of its new high-speed train station. The fact that the station was located in a peripheral area implies the need to undertake a wide range of measures to manage physical planning and maximise mobility. Municipal and territorial planning highlights the importance of infrastructure and of integrating a station and its immediate surroundings within the wider urban area. This normally entails the development of land through urban pl...

Research paper thumbnail of Development through design: Knowledge, power, and absences in the making of southeastern Turkey

Geoforum, 2020

The Foucauldian concept of power-knowledge has been a useful lens to study the idea, discourse, a... more The Foucauldian concept of power-knowledge has been a useful lens to study the idea, discourse, and practice of development. Since the 1980s, many scholars have employed this critical framework to unearth the overlooked power relations created and altered by the concept of development in general, and development projects in particular. This article contributes to this debate by advancing and enriching this perspective. Analyzing a broad number of official sources supporting Turkey’s Southeastern Anatolia Project (Güneydoğu Anadolu Projesi, GAP) and drawing theoretically on the concept of power of Michel Foucault and absences of Boaventura de Sousa Santos, we argue that GAP is part of a state strategy to produce southeastern Turkey by design and the representation of lack. We develop a framework that helps us understand the narratives on the project as a design of absences, a design-power that works as a particular form of power-knowledge. In the terrain of absences, design has become the way to exercise power together with the observation of geography and population. The absences created by the development discourse become a key-feature of design-power. In this sense, GAP is design-power to produce a new region and new subjectivities and works as a particular form of power-knowledge.

Over time, the project was redefined as a multisectoral, integrated, and sustainable regional and human development project. This chapter seeks to make a critical appraisal of GAP on the basis of its formal objectives. To this end, the chapter explores GAP-induced changes and challenges specifically in the (i) infrastructural and economic and (ii) sociocultural dimensions of the project. Our main conclusion is that the state’s claim about the project’s success is not supported by the state’s own data.
