Abstract

The necessary reformulation of the plan of Italian cities during the Renaissance gave rise to a new design based on rules and formulations that value the sectorization and street’s geometry. This plan could generate an image of authoritarianism and subvert the concept elaborated by Italian treatise writers that the city must generate conditions for the development of citizenship.
