The environmental and socio-economic distortions affecting Constantine urban habitats are strictly connected to the prevailing models of architectural and urban planning, deeply influenced by the globalizing western rationalist paradigm, defined by extra-local needs and forces and driven by the priorities dictated by the capitalistic market economy. This development model, conceived and implemented in terms of universal macro-scale spatial functions, is impacting very negatively the territorial and socio-economic system of the area, generating a general environmental and landscape degradation and producing new forms of poverty within the newly urbanised groups, which represent a great portion of the local population. This situation calls planners and local decision makers to consider the social responsibility implied in their professional practices and the effects that they produce on the inhabitants and on the territory as a whole, making therefore necessary a serious commitment toward the development of an innovative and sustainable methodology of architectural and urban analysis and planning, context-sensitive and flexible, based on an interdisciplinary and participatory approach and open to a continuous re-interpretation in the light of the local social and spatial practices.
