Abstract

The need to construct a statute of disci- plina (adapted to the time), a founding issue of the CIAM and at the center of the debate of the CIAM in Berga, still appears to be a key issue today. As a reference to the founding contents of urban planning and its being, it seems effective to take the synthetic and lucid definition of Luigi Piccinato: "the general study of the conditions, manifestations and needs of life and development of a city". (Piccinato, 1987, p. 13) The need to renew the discipline and its princely instrument, the plan, is as strong and topical as ever. The time of economic development and growth in the chair (for our country since the Second World War) has translated the dictate of the CIAM by packaging rigid spatial rules and quantitative standards. Mutation that puts us in front of the clas- sical dilemma: innovate or succumb. Commitment to innovation which, in the CIAM, is based on an openness and international participation, capable of welcoming intelligences and making different visions converse; commitment to innovate urban planning which, to stay in our days, does not lie so much in the ability to produce buzzwords, which in these years is prolific (words that are affirmed and that risk to be consumed in a short time: smart, resilience, regeneration, transition, ...), but in the recovery of a strong ideality and confidence in the future and in human intelligence.
