Knowledge…is Frank discussions on the transversal play of different forms of knowledge is the social and cultural promotion of the good urban life

Abstract

Philosophical knowledge, from the very beginning, gave spatial and organizational order to urban life, using thought and action as its school, rationalizing space, organizing activities, projects and administration, balancing out the settlements of people, mediating between demands, aspirations, needs and interests of individuals, with the normative badge of the reciprocal degrees of liberty, strengthening the whole without weakening the parts which are necessary for its realization.

Urban planning is presented as the first child of philosophy (etymologically as the “love of learning”) which has selected the city as her privileged residence from which to depart and in which it is just that the many branches of human knowledge converge where the play of knowledge is not converted into a yoke.
