“…But this architectural debate is part of a much broader challenge to scientific rationalism, which impacts not only on the way the built fabric of cities is designed, but on the way we think about cities and our capacity rationally to guide their development .

A este respecto, se considera que el espacio da forma al objetivo social, por la importancia dada a la estética (Cooke, 1990). Sus consecuencias serán las ciudades como paisajes fracturados en enclaves protegidos, rodeados de áreas fuertemente vigiladas ocupadas por los pobres y marginados.…”
