El trabajo trata sobre la ciudad de escala metropolitana desde la perspectiva de la fragmentación del territorio, revisando el caso del crecimiento sur de Madrid. Esta zona se ha desarrollado rápidamente desde los años sesenta, dándose actualmente en ella la conurbación de ciudades pertenecientes a distintos municipios. Dicha expansión deja sin urbanizar una porción de suelo que separa estas ciudades de Madrid, la que no tiene un uso definido. Por la configuración que tiene esta zona se reconoce como una franja de periferias interiores de escala metropolitana. Se trata de definir su origen y localización. Este análisis se enmarca en el debate teórico sobre los procesos de metropolización de ciudades en regiones urbanas. PALABRAS CLAVE: Metropolización de ciudades, fragmentación territorial, región urbana, Madrid. The article reflects on the city from a territorial fragmentation point of view. The case of the southwards urban growth of Madrid is reviewed. This zone has developed rapidly during the sixties, and nowadays experiences a conurbation of small towns within its vicinity. Such expansion has left undeveloped a strip of land with no defined use in between the involved municipalities that can be defined as a metropolitan scale inner peripheries set. This work seeks to locate it and trace its inception. This analysis is part of the theoretical debate on the processes of metropolisation of cities in urban regions. KEYWORDS: Metropolisation of cities; territorial fragmentation; urban region; Madrid.

Immunofluorescence tests (IF) for toxoplasmosis were performed on a total of 608 schoolchildren in elementary and junior high grades. 166 being in the Bonsucesso district (an urban region of Rio de Janeiro) and 442 children from locations within the lowlands of Jacarepaguá (with rural characteristics). All the IF-IgM were nonreactive, whilst 416 schoolchildren (68.4%) were IF-IgG serum-reactive ([greater than or equal to] 1:16). The percentages of serum-reactives in Jacarepaguá were significantly higher than in Bonsucesso, both as regards the total number of schoolchildren (p < 0.001), as also when subdivided according to the age-grades from six to eight years (p < 0.001) or from twelve to fourteen (p < 0.05). Both in Jacarepaguá and in Bonsucesso, the prevalence of reactions in the 12 to 14 year age-grade was significantly greater than in the 6 to 8 year age-grade (p < 0.001 in both cases). Expressively larger prevalences of serum reactions were found in Jacarepaguá among schoolchildren who preferred eating raw or undercooked meat, as well as among those having cats as pets; this occurred equally in the 6 to 8 year and in the 12 to 14 year age-grades. In Bonsucesso, the only significant difference was in the 6 to 8 year age-grades that had cats as pets. Thus, it has been verified that the risk of infection is greater and more precocious in localities with rural characteristics than in urban regions.

In this report we essentially have an eye on two of the most significant inquiry that are essential for the urban region organizer to be inquired. The primary inquiry is how we can distinguish the provincial climate traffic affectability list generally the city that will surrender a thought that to how much the district traffic is affected by climate. The second inquiry is among the complex local highlights which incorporates street structures, traffic, and so on. For this we need two primary segments initially is climate traffic record foundation and key factor examination.

The city of Akure has experienced rapid growth in the past 2 to 3 decades which has led to the expansion of the core urban areas of the city into adjoining rural lands. The paper analyses the urban growth of Akure using medium resolution Landsat imageries. Landsat (MSS), Landsat Thematic Mapping(TM) and Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper (ETM+) images for 1972, 1986 and 2002 respectively were used in a post-classification comparison analysis to map the spatial dynamic of land cover changes and identify the urbanization process in Akure. The land cover statistical results revealed a rapid growth in the built-up area of Akure from 997.2 hectares in 1972 to about 3852.70 hectares in 2002 due to increase in population of Akure within this period. Results of the prediction showed that the built-up area of the city has increased in size from 977.2 hectares in 1972 to 5863.66 hectares in 2022 corresponding to 500% at the rate of 13.1% per annum. Implications of growth include loss of open space, pressure on limited infrastructure, overcrowding, traffic congestion and poor standard of living. The study recommends regular monitoring of urban area, development of small towns around the city area to avoid overcrowding, training of planners and administrators to acquire more knowledge in the use of GIS and remote sensing to enhance efficiency.

A necessidade de uso dos recursos naturais estimulou as mudanças de cobertura da terra, com isso, inúmeros problemas foram surgindo e houve a necessidade de estabelecer políticas de uso restritivo dos recursos como as RESEX’s. De forma a auxiliar a gestão dessas UC’s o estudo da sua vulnerabilidade se faz importante. O município de estudo foi São João da Ponta que abriga uma RESEX a nível federal. A metodologia utilizada consistiu na análise de diversas variáveis que tendem a influenciar o grau de resiliência (Altitude, Declividade, Geologia, Pedologia, Precipitação e Uso e Cobertura do solo), estas variáveis foram processadas em um ambiente SIG e em seguida utilizadas para o cálculo do Índice de Vulnerabilidade. Foram obtidos como resultados mapas temáticos para cada variável e da vulnerabilidade ambiental de São João da Ponta, a fim de demonstrar espacialmente o grau de resiliência da área e quais os fatores influenciadores. Com isso, foi possível observar que as regiões que apresentaram maior vulnerabilidade estão dentro da RESEX em virtude dos manguezais, corroborando com diversos estudos que apontam a sensibilidade desses ecossistemas e a importância da sua proteção para as comunidades tradicionais que sobrevivem deles, além da manutenção da biodiversidade do ponto de vista ecológico.

SIG.   ANALYSIS OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL VULNERABILITY OF THE CITY OF SÃO JOÃO DA PONTA, PARÁ: The use of geoprocessing in the management of conservation units ABSTRACT The need for use of stimulated natural resources as land cover changes, thus, in many problems arose and there was a need to define restrictive resource use policies as RESEX. In order to help the management of these UCs, the study of their vulnerability is important. The municipality of study was São João da Ponta, opening a RESEX at federal level. One methodology used is the analysis of several variables that affect the degree of resilience (Altitude, Slope, Geology, Pedology, Precipitation and Land Use and Coverage), these variables were processed in a GIS environment and in temporary use for the Vulnerability Index test. The results of thematic maps were selected for each variable and environmental vulnerability of São João da Ponta, an end of spatial demonstration or degree of resilience of the area and which factors influence it. Thus, it was possible to observe which regions with greater vulnerability are within RESEX due to mangroves, corroborating several studies that point to a sensitivity of these ecosystems and the importance of protection for the traditional communities that survive, besides maintaining the biodiversity of the point. from an ecological point of view.

Resumen: El objetivo de este artículo es demostrar que existe una poética en el urbanismo de Le Corbusier y que el tema se mantiene y se transforma en sus modelos teóricos y sus derivaciones. Desde el punto de vista teórico-metodológico, parte-se del presupuesto de que esa poética es el resultado de la dualidad entre arte y función presente en su pensamiento, originada en su formación personal y el momento histórico en el que produce su obra. El analisis se estructura con la agrupación de su produción urbanística en cuatro fases: 1-los años 1920: el Plan Ideal; 2-1929-38: las ciudades de América del sur y los viaductos; 3-1930-50: la Ville Radieuse; 4-Después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial: la ciudad de los 7V y la Unité d’habitation. La reflexión final retoma la visión general de su produción urbanística y la vincula al concepto de utopia. Abstract: The goal of this article is to demonstrate that there is an aspect of poetics in Le Corbusier’s urbanism and that this theme is maintained and you can see it being transformed through the theoretical models and its derivations. From the methodological and theoretical point of view, we make the assumption that the poetics is the result of the duality between art and function present in his thought, which comes from the historical moment in which his work was made and from his personal background. This analysis is structured by grouping his urban planning works in for phases; the 1920s: the Ideal City; 1929-38: the cities of South America and the viaduct; 1930-50: the Ville Radieuse; after the II World War: the city of 7V and the Unité d’habitation. The final considerations bring back the general vision of his urban planning works and tie it to the concept of utopia.  Palabras clave: Le Corbusier; Urbanismo; Poética; Arte; Función.

En Costa Rica se encuentra el colectivo ChepeCletas que ha encauzado sus esfuerzos en mejorar la calidad del ambiente, a través del uso de bicicletas y las caminatas, así como la recuperación de espacios para la intervención pública, con el fn de convertir a la capital en un espacio para todas las personas. Por tanto, este artículo realizó un análisis dentro del colectivo, basado en los marcos de referencia de diagnóstico, pronóstico y motivo, dando como resultado mayor conciencia del impacto ambiental que genera el uso excesivo de vehículos privados, la construcción de un grupo que se siente como familia, incrementando el empoderamiento ciudadano para el cambio social, así como el interés por la ciudad y la necesidad de retomar los espacios que siempre fueron públicos; pero habían sido olvidados. Utilizar los marcos de referencia permite comprender, desde la visión de los integrantes, qué es, qué permite y qué se hace en dicho colectivo. Sumado a esto, se debe recalcar que este artículo aporta nuevos conocimientos respecto del tema, visualiza otra forma de hacer política desde abajo y crea  espacios que integran cada día a más personas.

AbstractIn Costa Rica, where the ChepeCletas collective is  to be found, eforts have been channeled to improve the quality of the environment by  using bicycles and walking, as well as the recovery of spaces bound for public intervention to turn the capital into a space for all people. Therefore, this article conducts an analysis within the group based on the diagnostic, prognostic and motive reference frameworks which result in a greater awareness of the environmental impact than the excessive use of private vehicles generates. Additionally, the  onstruction of a group that feels like family increasing citizen empowerment for social change, as well as interest in the city and the need to retake spaces that were always public but had been forgotten. The use of reference frames allows us to understand, from the point of view of the members, it’s nature, what allows it to be and what is done in said group. In addition to this, it should be emphasized that this article provides new knowledge on the subject, visualizes another way of doing politics from below and creates spaces that integrate more people every day.

Our study is focused on the natural environment significance and potential for the development of a wider region. A special emphasis is put on the geographical category of small towns, which play an important role in stabilizing the population of the Czech Republic. In this context, a key factor of planning in the rural region is the demarcation of a catchment region and the determination of its potential. Natural environment (primary landscape structure) is a basic determinant of area development at all the levels. This paper aims at the natural environment analyses of the small towns in the South Moravian Region, with emphasis on the development opportunities and limitations. In this study, small towns are considered to be all the residential units holding a town status, with the exception of district towns and the city of Brno. The study is a part of the research project supported in 2011 by the Internal Grant Agency of Mendel University in Brno titled “Small towns - Motors of the South Moravian countryside development”.

Bombay cannot be divorced from Bollywood, its medusa-like industry. While the relationship between the city of Bombay and the cinema it produces has been much talked about, this article seeks to look at the history of single-screen cinema theatres that are testimony to the urban history of Bombay. They are the receptacle in which cinema meets its audience. Within the darkened space of the theatre, a heterogeneous audience meets for a homogenous activity—to consume cinema. On the outside, their façades bear the marks of a city’s growth—be it Art-Deco theatres like Liberty, or warehouse structures like Chandan. Their unique style also becomes a geographical marker for the city’s public to navigate their way—countless bus stops and lanes are named after theatres, and a quick chat with the city’s slightly older residents will reveal how they identify neighbourhoods with theatres. This article traces the history of theatres and entertainment in Bombay (from the 1850s) vis-à-vis the city’s urban history. The contention is that as the city grew upwards from its southern tip, expanding in girth, so did the cinema theatres multiply situating themselves along the south-north running railway lines. Thus, to understand the urban growth of Bombay, a unique lens is exploring the history of cinema theatres. In understanding this, the article will highlight the importance of single-screen cinema theatres, and the reason why their sites and spaces need to be preserved.

O crescimento urbano de São Luís a partir da década de 90 é impulsionado pela verticalização de novos condomínios que foram surgindo na cidade, principalmente na região próxima a praia. Portanto, compreender a dinâmica do valor de uso e troca do solo, mediante a valorização do m² em algumas áreas de São Luís é fundamental para identificar a geração de novos condomínios clubs como o caso do Farol da Ilha. Mediante tal aspecto, objetiva-se identificar a aplicabilidade do valor de uso e do valor de troca do solo, no condomínio Farol da Ilha, em São Luís (Maranhão, Brasil). A metodologia utilizada caracteriza-se como bibliográfica, documental e empírica. Os resultados apontam para uma supervalorização da metragem do bairro da Ponta d’Areia mediante a instalação do Farol da Ilha. Conclui-se que o mercado imboliário é ágil e contribui para a dinamização do espaço urbano em São Luís. Palavras-chave: Condomínio residencial; Valor de uso e troca do solo; São Luís.   CONDOMINIUM RESIDENTIAL FAROL DA ILHA IN SÃO LUÍS (MARANHÃO): study about use value and soil exchange Abstract Urban growth of São Luís from the 90s is driven by verticalization of new condos that were emerging in the city, especially next to the beach area. Therefore, understanding the dynamics of use value and exchange the ground by emphasizing the m² in some areas of São Luís is critical to identify the generation of new clubs condominiums as the case of the Farol da Ilha. By this point, the objective is to identify the applicability of use value and exchange value of land at the Farol da Ilha condominium in São Luís (Maranhão, Brazil).

No estágio atual do sistema capitalista no mundo, as estratégias dos agentes econômicos para sobreviverem no mercado se fazem cada vez mais notórias. Tida como uma modernização na forma de vender e comprar, o Franchising vem se destacando em todo mundo e sendo fator importante na economia dos países. As franquias são muito presentes em realidades urbanas complexas, como as metrópoles, porém, nos últimos anos, nota-se sua difusão para centros urbanos intermediários, particularmente em cidades consideradas como médias, que possuem certo grau de influência regional. A cidade de Viçosa, localizada na Zona da Mata mineira, faz parte desse conjunto de cidades que, pela centralidade que exercem, atraem capitais, pessoas e mercadorias. O crescente número de franquias na cidade em questão despertou o interesse em caracterizá-las e entendê-las do ponto de vista da sua espacialidade, bem como do potencial que apresentam para promover mudanças na estrutura urbana, já que elas são indutoras de investimentos, reestruturações e, principalmente, de centralidade.   THE ROLE OF FRANCHISES IN THE RESTRUCTURING OF CITIES: the ascension of the sector in Viçosa - Minas Gerais State Palavras-chave: Franchising; Cidades Médias; Centralidade; Reestruturação Urbana. Abstract At the present stage of the capitalist system in the world, the strategies of the economic agents to survive in the market become more and more notorious. Considered as a modernization in the form of selling and buying, franchising has been standing out in the world and being an important factor in the economy of the countries. Franchises are very present in complex urban realities, such as metropolises, but in recent years, it has been diffused to intermediate urban centers, particularly in medium-sized cities with a certain degree of regional influence. The city of Viçosa, located in Zona da Mata mineira, is part of this group of cities that, because of the centrality they exert, attract capital, people and merchandise. The increasing number of franchises in the city in question has aroused interest in characterizing and understanding them from the point of view of their spatiality, as well as the potential they present to promote changes in the urban structure, since they are conducive to investment, restructuring And, mainly, of centrality.  Keywords: Franchising; Medium sized cities; Centrality; Urban Restructuring.   EL PAPEL DE LAS FRANQUICIAS EN LA REESTRUCTURACIÓN DE LAS CIUDAD: la ascensión del sector en Viçosa – MG Resumen En la etapa actual del sistema capitalista en el mundo, las estrategias de los agentes económicos para sobrevivir en el mercado se hacen cada vez más notorias.
