We are witnessing the transition from managerial toward entrepreneurial activities in cities, with the goal of finding new forms of competitive capitalism (Harvey 1989). As a consequence of economies of a globalized world, competitiveness of cities has a huge importance for realizing a better position of cities in the region and in the global network of cities. One possible and successful development scenario under mentioned circumstances is the implementation of a city development strategy based on knowledge and creativity. In accordance with the nature of the profession, the process of architectural and urban design is always under the influence of current economic, political, social and cultural events. Creative city could be defined as a place of diverse and inclusive arts and culture, as well as the place of economic innovation, creative talents and creative industries. Although such a concept could produce an exclusive place for living, it involves the application of inclusive design of a city, based on economic, social, environmental and cultural sensitive policies that allow everyone to improve economically. In the spirit of thus listed process characteristics, the development concept of the creative city becomes a very useful instrument. This paper presents a review of research done at the Faculty of Architecture, University in Belgrade (in the period from 2008 to 2015). The research task pertained to establishing spatial and functional potentials of various sites within the territory of Belgrade.

[EN] This document is the result of a research on management systems used in informal cities as Brazil, Peru and Colombia. Its main objective is to describe and analyze urban management systems, legality and financial ground. In order to propose a theoretical model of management, recent studies were taken into account. To achieve this objective, different management systems were compared in these countries, then, their strenghts and weaknesses were analyzed, and finally a theoretical model was proposed that can be applied and adapted to any casual city. In future research this model will be applied to the informal city of Cartagena de Indias (Colombia)., [CA] Aquest document és el resultat de la investigació realitzada sobre els sistemes de gestió que es presenten a les ciutats informals de Brasil, Perú i Colòmbia. El seu objectiu principal és realitzar una descripció i una anàlisi dels sistemes de gestió urbanística, de la legalitat del sòl i financera, tenint en compte els estudis realitzats fins avui, per a així poder plantejar un model teòric de gestió. Per a aconseguir aquest objectiu es va realitzar un estudi comparatiu dels diferents sistemes de gestió emprats en els esmentats països, per a posteriorment analitzar les seues fortaleses i debilitats, i finalment plantejar un model teòric que puga ser aplicat i adaptat a qualsevol ciutat informal. En futures línies d'investigació s¿aplicarà a la ciutat informal de Cartagena de Indias (Colòmbia)., [ES] Este documento es el resultado de la investigación realizada acerca de los sistemas de gestión que se presentan en las ciudades informales de Brasil, Perú y Colombia.

Para alcanzar este objetiVo se realizo una comparativa de los diferentes sistemas de gestión empleados en dichos países, para posteriormente analizar sus fortalezas y debilidades y finalmente plantear un modelo teórico que pueda ser aplicado y adaptado a cualquier ciudad informal.

The Neighborhood Recuperation Program of the Housing and Urbanism Minister of Chile is an innovative effort in public policy. Its objective is to build integral proposals in the urban development field, coming from the joint participation of the local community, local government and central government. It is an expression of the new relationship between the State and citizenship in building the city., El Programa Recuperación de Barrios del Ministerio de Vivienda y Urbanismo, constituye un esfuerzo de innovación en política social, cuyo objetivo es construir propuestas de desarrollo urbano integral, surgidas del trabajo conjunto de la comunidad, los gobiernos locales y el gobierno central, como expresión de una nueva relación entre el Estado y la ciudadanía en la construcción de ciudad.

La quête de sens est une motivation essentielle pour les jeunes diplômés de l’enseignement supérieur. Ainsi, des acteurs de l’aménagement, de l’architecture ou du spectacle intègrent depuis quelques années l’économie sociale et solidaire. Ils fondent leur pratique sur des appels à projets et ils inventent des lieux hybrides qui associent mixité sociale et créativité.Si ce type de management vise l’innovation, ces pratiques bouleversent l’intervention sociale : les modes de financement sollicités modifient profondément le rapport au temps et à l’action. Partant de l’observation d’un tiers-lieu marseillais et de son environnement, cet article expose les tensions qui naissent des différences de pratiques et de cultures entre les porteurs d’un projet d’urbanisme transitoire et les structures sociales pérennes et plus traditionnelles qui l’environnent. Si la temporalité est pointée du doigt pour expliquer ces tensions, n’y aurait-il pas là l’expression d’un différend logique, qui engagerait la rationalité même du projet, interrogeant sa capacité à prendre réellement en compte les questions sociales auxquelles il prétend se confronter ?, The search for meaning is fundamental for young graduates. Thus, several actors from urban planning, architecture or entertainment integrate the social economy. They base their practices on calls for projects and they invent hybrid places, where social mix and creativity are combined. This kind of management aims for innovation, but this method disrupts the social sector. Indeed, this fund format involves a different relationship with time and action. Following the observation of Coco Velten, a third-place downtown Marseille, this article shows the tensions appearing develop between a temporary town planning project and its environment. The time scale difference of both approaches is commonly invoking. This argument is relevant but the rationality cutting across the project is probably also a decisive underlying factor.
