This module focuses on contemporary territorial analysis from two increasingly interrelated aspects, urban and rural.These objectives imply, from the urban point of view, an extensive perspective of the fact, that so much integrates historical aspects, as cultural, how economic, political and technical.From the rural point of view, the vision is also extensive, so much taking the processes -agents, policies, into account markets, institucions...- as the physical results of the same ones in terms of landscape and ways of life. CONTENT: The urban reality (7.5 credits). Starting concepts of urban development and the city. The different historical urban models and their impact on the present. The Modern city: from its background to its crisis. Urban networks and systems. Urban agents, land income and planning. The “new frontiers” of the contemporary city; Rural spaces and dynamics (7.5 credits). From rural to rurality. Rural versus landscape, heritage, diversity and biodiversity. The reconciliation of the PAC and the WHO, a necessary dialogue. Cultivating food diversity, cultivating agricultural diversity. Practicum (3 credits)
