El libro pone en discusión diferentes aproximaciones y desarrollos teóricos y metodológicos en torno a la historiografía y la planificación urbana en América Latina. A lo largo de los nueve capítulos se entretejen las tendencias en la investigación en este campo: algunos autores plantean la importancia de la historia urbana como recurso para la prospectiva, en tanto que otros abordan la planificación y el urbanismo como objeto de estudio historiográfico. Además, la publicación aporta elementos de reflexión sobre los debates recientes en la teoría y práctica del planeamiento urbano.

This book offers a relevant sample of the current research on Latin American education in comparative perspective. In their introduction, Torres and Puiggros, two of the most recognized researchers of Latin American education, draw from political sociology of education, theories of the state, history of education, and deconstructionist theories to focus on changes in state formation in the region and its implications for the constitution of the pedagogical subject in public schools. Throughout the different chapters, the contributors present and analyze the most relevant topics, research agendas, and some of the key theoretical and political problems of Latin American education.
