On Thursday, November 17, 2022 we continue with a new conference of the inTESIS cycle. This time Dr. architect Juan Manuel Zaguirre Fernández will talk to us about "Vías y entrevías. Atributos y compromisos del distrito industrial de Tarragona", a thesis that has been directed by the professor of urban planning Josep Parcerisa Bundó of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC).

Analysis of the form and structures in interest to understanding foundational logics, assessing urban events impacts and phenomena, revealing Tarragona industrial districts attributes. Recognize the duality that has been caused between a periphery marked by infrastructures determination and their marginal condition, and a city that, traditionally deals with your center rationalization. Transformation of a territory that has achieved its occupation supporting itself on the strength of unrelated layouts and which would have procured urban exclusion in the space created, analyses how urban possibilities are taking root amidst these conflicts. Examines the initiatives of urban planning as a reflection of the social and technological changes, boosted by the expansion and development policies that marked this period. Concludes from the perspective regarding the recognition of how socioeconomic structures have been deployed in this territory, vindicating the Tarragona urban project has pending regarding its periphery.

At the end of the event there will be a dinner-discussion with the speaker at the Barhaus restaurant. If you are interested in attending, you can contact tarragona@coac.cat.
