  • What is advisable for the people of the Third World.
  • Which opinions we should follow in our Third World.
  • The reason why urbanism and architecture do not fit together.
  • What comes to be the reason for interpretation, approximation and never the solution.
  • The why of typology, the paradigm, epigonic analogy.
  • Why we do not commit ourselves to reflection toward conceptual progress.
  • The limits of those held up as masters to follow.
  • The errors of symbol solutions.
  • Your way of understanding, reasoning and valuing.
  • Whether it suits you to be committed, and by which standards.
  • Whether you idealize the synergy between the urban fabric and the buildings to be set within it, for achieving a satisfying life in the cities of the universe.
  • The why of what exists not coming to be a satisfactory answer.
  • Why cities circulate with difficulty.
  • The why of global Third World destitution.
  • The why of global First World destitution now.
  • The link between these worlds and the reality of their cities.
  • The why of the economic waste being generated in these cities.
  • The points in common in the mode of solution in these cities.
  • List the impacts of the way city zones are used.
  • Observe the predominant factor in this use of zones or land.
  • Observe whether your condition matches ours or go back to the beginning.
  • Our view is that the origin stems from an unreasoned urban fabric and from cities with no foresight at all in their expansions.
  • That they thus demand drastic correction without economic harm to their individual owners and their families, now partnered and benefiting together in a stock company with shares in M2 of land, among property owners, the city councils that own the streets and the state governments that own the buildings generating the universal citywide urban chaos.
  • That it calls for zoning the cities for their specialized functions, ones that simplify their road network, now smaller this way, by generating superblocks in the neighborhoods of tall towers, achieving, with the airspace to be built, the transformation of urban land into a solution of green spaces and roadways.
  • Now and thus, without heterogeneity of land use, the factor generating circulation chaos and universal global destitution.
  • That the lack of a solution stems from the incapacity of the guidelines for direction given by the schools.
  • That it does not stem from the contradictions of the prevailing economic and social system.
  • That the basic defining components of the environmental system derive from the routine tradition that envelops society.
  • That scientifically and economically we set out the how of solving it, from our being backed by an urban-architectural method-process.
  • The typological paradigm and its supporters refuse to accept seeking to develop the suitable scientific method-process for the integration of form, urban-architectural.
  • The lack of design has been showing the urban-architectural service infrastructure to be obsolete.
  • The lack of concept does not repair the socioeconomic damage that detached single-family housing does to the city.
  • Tradition as the enemy of evolution holds back the non-paradigmatic scientific design that the routine-minded support.
  • The urban-architectural profession is based on working more to earn less, and it makes the majority live better.
  • Rather than on technique, we must rely on scientific reason.
  • Only reason will make Third World and First World states flourish, let us begin to seek it, use it, exercise it.
  • The lack of design of the human habitat generates dissatisfaction.
  • The universal human habitat demands specialized cities.
  • The proposals of the CIAM congresses have yet to achieve answers.
  • Everyone charged with urban-architectural work needs to study the “Athens Charter.”
  • Recently we have seen that it has an answer from us.
  • Today and thus, it becomes the starting point for every city strategy.
  • Let each person charged with urban-architectural design try and manage to give answers to this Athens Charter, or support and correct our answer after reading its 95 approaches and Le Corbusier’s initial answers.
  • We insist on seeing it as the starting point for every strategy of correction and direction of the specific city, to be laid out in objectifiable scientific development, already viable and verifiable today, and possible and advisable for its optimal service infrastructure solution.
  • The fragmentation of the urban fabric generates poverty.
  • The planning of the territory of the Country State under the scientific, productive, marketable approach will give life to the state government, today in a poor globalized economic spectrum.
  • Cities in neglect as of today, 2009, pose the answer of economic recession for the nation governments of the universe.
  • The answer lies in planning global production and correcting the urban fabric of the cities that are to remain.
  • Deferring, prohibiting towns and cities without a scientific basis is what is called for.
  • Generate specialized industrial cities at the ports.
  • Specialize the large cities that are to remain viable, as we foresee is called for in NY, Manhattan, reducing streets, increasing the length of Central Park, taking work out of its island area, specializing it in residences facing the long sides of the park for some 8000000, and institutions along the entire long edge of the island that sustain that optimal life.
  • Trade schools must be created for every human being who receives a subsidy from the state.
  • Talking about generating subsidized jobs is unsustainable today, and it requires another, entrepreneurial view.
  • Without sufficient resources and a lower cost of living we cannot obtain housing or pleasurable satisfaction.
  • A new degree of poverty can already be summed up: before, it was only conceptual and did not weigh as much as the physical kind that today we already touch or that weighs on us.
  • This threatening degree of global poverty should make the person charged with urban-architectural work who has become an epigonic draftsman see that their professional duty demands another way of doing and proceeding as the mode of practicing their specialty, that the human habitat demands it so.
  • A joint action will begin the path of competitive marketable production, supported by trade schools that generate production associated with innovating design for every kind of artifact.
  • Project exercises in public hearings will generate the start of setting in motion every strategic plan for the specific city that is to remain.

The planning of the territory will speak to the deferrals, we must face and overcome the threat of crisis, it is the moment to understand ourselves as capable.
