The disposal of military sites in Spain today. Challenges and limitations towards a sustainable urban development

Abstract

The redevelopment of military land in Spain has been poorly analyzed, although it has triggered relevant transformations in cities across the country. This research aims to partially fill this gap by comparing two recent redevelopment processes occurring in Madrid and Valladolid based on four factors underlined by experts in the field. While few academics have dealt with these dynamics until today, the work carried out can be a pivotal basis on which ground the analysis can be extended case by case at state level, also for a comparison with other countries
