The South European city - urban space and social movements. The production of urban space and the logics of urban growth: The cases of Madrid and Barcelona, 1950-1980

该项目考察了西班牙佛朗哥城市发展的阶段和形式。文章以西班牙最重要的两个大都市马德里和巴塞罗那为研究对象，分析了从20世纪50年代到向民主过渡的西班牙城市化繁荣时期，新外围城市空间生产的具体特征和路径。这项研究被认为是对城市历史和当代西班牙历史的贡献，也是对关于欧洲城市理想类型的辩论的贡献。当代西班牙的城市历史和城市化历史的现状相当不令人满意。对20世纪西班牙的研究相对较少。它们大多数是指佛朗哥独裁统治的几十年，涉及城市空间和社会的转型问题，突出了该政权的专制性质以及反佛朗哥运动和组织的政治斗争。通过这种方式，西班牙的城市似乎不同于欧洲的常态，因为它们被认为是落后的和边缘地位。这项研究选择了一种不同的方法，超越了主要的单向度政治和社会视角。它涉及城市社会生产的中心方面(亨利·列斐伏尔)。考虑到马德里和巴塞罗那的案例，它一方面审查了城市生产中不同行为者之间的相互关系，以及公共控制和自动监管之间的相互关系。将特别注意城市发展的社会、经济和政治因素之间的关系。另一方面，该项目着眼于构思的城市空间和感知的城市空间之间的辩证互动，特别是关于新的城市外围。此外，西班牙大都市的生产和空间感知问题应纳入关于1945年后南欧城市化道路的辩论的比较视角。

The project examines phases and forms of urban development in Franco Spain. It deals with the two most important Spanish metropolises, Madrid and Barcelona, and analyzes specific characteristics and paths of the production of urban space in the new peripheries during the boom phase of Spanish urbanization from the 1950s up to the transition to democracy. The study is conceived as a contribution to urban history and contemporary Spanish history as well as a contribution to the debate concerning the ideal type of the European city. The state of the art of urban history and the history of urbanization of contemporary Spain is rather unsatisfactory. There are relatively few studies for 20th century Spain. In their majority, they refer to the decades of the Franco dictatorship and deal with problems of the transformation of urban space and society highlighting the repressive character of the regime as well as the political struggles of anti-Franco movements and organizations. By this way, Spanish cities appear to be different from European normalcy because of their supposed backwardness and marginal position. This study chooses a different approach, beyond predominant mono-dimensional political and social perspectives. It deals with central aspects of the social production of the city (Henri Lefebvre). Considering the cases of Madrid and Barcelona, it examines on the one hand the interrelationship of different actors in the production of the city as well as the interrelatedness between public control and auto-regulation. Particular attention will be paid to the relationship between social, economic and political factors for urban development. On the other hand, the project looks at the dialectical interaction between conceived and perceived urban space, especially with regard to the new urban peripheries. Furthermore, the issues of the production and perception of space in Spanish metropolises shall be integrated into a comparative perspective of the debates concerning a particular South European path of urbanization after 1945.
