This edition of "Urban" devotes its attention to issues regarding the teaching of town planning, as well as the complex and characteristic problems that accompany this activity. Ricard Pié's article, entitled "La titulación del urbanismo en España. Una nueva oportunidad", describes the urgent need to regain society's respect for town planning. Otherwise, architects will be unable to construct the discipline upon their experience and may have to wait for other disciplines closer to landscape to define the nature of town planning in the future.
