Main Article Content
Abstract
First, the “city as a conversation space”. The second one is about the asymmetries and “power” structures that are the frame of those conversation; such asymmetries imply the emergence of “conflicts” as a synonym of “democracy”, which are the third and fourth scenes. The fifth scene emerges from a society attached to order and resistant to dissent, where the “cities” face the challenge of embracing social changes, and at the same time transform themselves to support the process of democratic deepening.
