  Corporate spaces and urban scales in the XXth century

  Primary agencies, administrative structures and state order

  Focusing on the issue of inter-territorial coordination in corporate experiences that involved States throughout the 20^th century, the Congress CORPORATE SPACES AND URBAN SCALES aims at a historical reassessment of corporate primary agencies.

In the Portuguese case, for example, such basic structures comprised the following organizations: ‘houses of the people’ (Casas do Povo), ‘houses of the fishermen’ (Casas dos Pescadores), farmers guilds (Grémios da Lavoura), commercial guilds (Grémios do Comércio), industrial guilds (Grémios da Indústria) and unions (Sindicatos). The goal of this Congress is the cross analysis of this reality in the urban-rural context and in a comparative perspective.
