Abstract: In the twentieth century, the city was theorized as never before. Thinking about cities became professionalized. This happened at the intersection of theoretical and applied thinking, between sociological research and architectural practice, which was known as planning . This was when, in many parts of the world, the growth of cities seemed an uncontrollable and even a dangerous phenomenon. While multiple urban traditions, for example that of the Arab world, continued (qualified by imperialism and colonialism), the changes that were visualized and written about in cities such as Paris and New York had enormous impacts on large and small cities in many countries. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
