This curricular unit aims to gather scientific knowledge and analytic tools that allow the identification and representation of contemporary urban space. New discursive formations, rearrangements in the instances of organization, control and aggregation of information motivate mutations in the way one experiences, structures and organizes urban space, fostering the transverseness of knowledge that this UC brings together.
