2.1 INTRODUCTION
During the last decade or so, infrastructure has been successfully reclaimed by
urban design as a structuring device capable of dealing with the current complex
spatial condition, characterized by rural-urban hybridity, accelerating horizontal
urbanization, neoliberal economic regimes, and rising environmental concerns. As an
alternative
to the inability of both modern(ist) design modes and traditional urban
form “to produce meaningful, socially just, and environmentally healthful cities”(
Waldheim 2013, 13), new -isms, such as landscape urbanism and ecological urbanism,
are exploring new paths for the discipline by designing infrastructure systems as
resilient frameworks guiding urban development within the context of ever-changing
and fragile (ecological) processes. Indeed, as Pierre Bélanger reflects on postwar
engineering, “(i)n the wake of over-planning, over-regulation and over-engineering
of the past century,” future design has to be oriented toward “the re-coupling,
re-configuration, and re-calibration of these processes” through “the re-design of
infrastructure” (Bélanger 2013, 24–25). As a common denominator of discourses
breaking with functionalist, top-down planning and, more pragmatically, as one of
the last resorts allowing public authorities to give structure to haphazard settlement
(Shannon and Smets 2010, 9), infrastructure has emerged not only as the glue holding
disperse urbanization together, but also as the object around which new visions
about urbanization could be assembled in order to formulate novel grounds for the
discipline.
