Now by means of models of greater or lesser autonomy, sometimes by movements of contraction and expansion of economic and financial resources, cities have become attractive imposing itself naturally as the first option for the concentration of resources and satisfaction of human needs. The former U.S. Mayor Wellington E. Webb maintains this importance to define the nineteenth century as the century of empires, the twentieth century as the century of the United States and the twenty-first century as the Century of Cities The vision of this policy, taken in the 50s of last century, is now an undeniable reality and no return. The mass migration of populations to cities continues to progress and is to make them into a gigantic complex interdependencies and difficult to manage and meet interconnections. The point of the perspective in the medium and long term become two of the pull factors (the livability and urbanity) one of the biggest challenges of governance. The UN forecasts highlight the scale of the problem: “In 2030, 60% of the world population will live in cities and by 2050 the number will grow to 70%.”
This trend has been accentuated in the XXI century with the attractiveness of the city has exercised on the human being generating an urban complex ecological system to demand more answers that address all the variables that contribute to the Sustainability and Economic / Financial, Social and Environmental.
