A Biorregião Urbana — Pequeno tratado sobre o território, bem comum [The Urban Bioregion — A small treaty on territory as common good] expands and reformulates questions addressed by the author in previous publications.
In this book, territory is portrayed as the greatest common good, although the resulting degradation of urbanization leads us to various socio-environmental dilemmas, which determine the emerging need for activities aimed at redesigning the relationship between urban evolution and environment.
This is the basis for Alberto Maghaghi musings on the way we think about territory. After the megacities exodus, this book focuses on the concern with self-sustaining reterritorialization.
