In 1867 Ildefons Cerdà published his Teoria general de la urbanitzación. In this text, the science of building cities, understood as a phenomenon, became a new discipline with a broad economic, social and cultural impact on the life of the people of the city. Coinciding with 150 years since its publication, its first translation into English is being presented along with the publishing online at urbanization.org with the statistics transformed into interactive graphics and open data, with the aim of expanding the knowledge of Cerda?’s work and encouraging debate on the process of urbanization in the future.
