Abstract

The Metropolitan Approach to Complexity. Regarding the Grosstadt of the last century, I have to point out a discontinuity. That is why we say that we are dealing with a Post-Metropolis Era, and not with a polycentric city. Instead, nowadays, Metropolis is a net-city. It is not only referring to nodes and poles but the space in between the infrastructure-the body of space, as D.G. Shane (Shane 2005) called it in 2005-which we have to reconceptualize. Nevertheless, we are not referring to a conurbation, but we have to understand a new entity with a new DNA, and we need new tools to comprehend and design it.
