General theory of urbanization. - In 1867 Ildefons Cerdà published his "Teoria general de la urbanització." In this text, the "science of building cities", understood as a phenomenon, became a new discipline with a broad economic, social and cultural impact on the life of the people of the city. Coinciding with 150 years since its publication, its first translation into English is being presented along with the publishing online urbanization.org with the statistics transformed into interactive graphics and open data, with the aim of expanding the knowledge of Cerdà's work and encouraging debate on the process of "urbanization" in the future. - info:sid/primo.exlibrisgroup.com-BIBSYS_ILS
