This book explores the urban transformation of Valencia through the emblematic case of the Avenida del Barón de Cárcer. The book gathers the reflections of the II Seminar on Architecture and Thought, which brought together architects, philosophers and urban planners in a dialogue on the relationship between planning, history and society.
The book addresses the impact of unfinished projects and the interaction between the historical and the modern in the city. Through chapters written by leading authors such as José Manuel Barrera, Ester Giménez and Pau Pedragosa, the book analyzes issues such as the tensions between memory and intervention, the ideology behind urban transformations and the importance of public space as an element of social cohesion.
With an approach that combines historical, urbanistic and philosophical analysis, the book not only reflects on the past, but also proposes new perspectives on how to understand and design the contemporary city. It is essential reading for those interested in architecture, urbanism and urban philosophy, offering tools for rethinking the traces of time in the urban fabric.
