ARCHITECTURE, ARCHAEOLOGY AND CONTEMPORARY CITY PLANNING "ISSUES OF SCALE"

ByGiorgio VerdianiJames Dixon

In discussions on urbanism, the need to involve new actors has been a major theme of recent debate. In this field, throughout Europe, various ways of allowing citizens to take a more direct part in planning is stressed. It is also important to look at the role or lack of role played by particular research fields. Architecture plays a major role in city planning. While archaeology has become increasingly involved in field projects in urban environments, the discipline seldom plays an important role in city planning. In several countries and particular cities this situation has been questioned during the last decades. In September 2016 a group of scholars from different countries met in London to discuss about the relationship between Architecture, Archaeology and contemporary City Planning. This book collects the final papers from that meeting.
