| الملخص: | Time, power, and space. The metropolization of Barcelona
The economic and social appeal of Barcelona was responsible for its having become
one of Europe’s major urban centers. However, it was only in the mid-19th century that
the city began to spread beyond its medieval walls. Although this belated expansion can
be explained in economic terms by the fact that urban policies follow the evolution of
production systems, such an approach overlooks the political and institutional aspect of
Barcelona’s metropolization, which is also a consequence of changes in the power
relationships between the various institutions on the metropolitan level and in the
relationships they create with the major city service enterprises. This kind of “territorial
governance” possesses characteristics which, though comparable to those found in the
big French cities, are nonetheless specific to Barcelona. |
