Abstract

This work reviews the research topic “cities as centres of accelerated social transformations” and delimits the field and function of urban themes that are carried out by various organisations. The work synthesises the debate that took place in a regional meeting organised by UNESCO and supported by the City of Viena and the Canadian Commission for UNESCO (Viena, 10th to 12th of February 1994) and the work of experts in the field appointed by UNESCO. This document does not intend to systematically exam the abundant literature on the subject.

This work comprises three parts. The first part presents the scene: the advent of an urban civilization. The second part tries to outline the most important social transformations that are affecting the cities and conditioning their sustainable administration now and in the future, and presents the constant and difficult problems faced by the decision-makers, and therefore, by the transdisciplinary comparative international research. The third part identifies the challenges faced by the UNESCO Programme on the theme of cities.
