Abstract

The words disorder and complicated, imperfection and chaos, are used to describe the image of the Latin American city. Is it disorder? Is it chaos? Where do we position our-selves to make such statements? The hypothesis that guides this research defines the irregularity of the urban form as a positive value of Latin American cities. Is it just another form of city that characterizes and identifies them? Taking the city of Córdoba, Argentina as a study case, we detect features of its urban form that we observe are shared with many other Latin American cities.
