Drawing from an ongoing research project 'SPLACH - Spatial Planning for Change, which aims to inform a sustainable planning transition of Portuguese metropolitan areas, this presentation identifies the planning paradigms which have guided the urban planning of Lisbon, its region and metropolitan area, during twentieth century. The influence of specific theories such as the Garden City (1898-1902), the Chartre d'Athénes (1933-1943), the Doorn Manifesto (1954) and the Compact City (1997) on strategic planning documents inclunding the 'Plano Director de Urbanização de Lisboa' (1938-1948), the 'Plano Director Municipal de Lisboa' (1954-1958), and the municipal and regional masterplans established after the 1974 Portuguese Democratic revolution are here identified. Such analysis is constructed through an overview of municipal and subregional plans and of neighbourhoods created in them, which allows an analysis of the metabolic and morphological transitions which have marked twentieth century Lisbon Metropolitan Area (LMA) urban planning history. By doing so, we seek to establish which were the impacts of these transitions, inclunding on urban form, how have these changed the role of urban growth in LMA and how to interpret and optimize such built heritage today, when Sustainability urges for change. ; info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion

Discusses the role of foreign workers in the Portuguese labor market, relating recent changes in the labor market with the need for foreign workers to satisfy the demand in some sectors. Focusing on the secondary labor market, particularly the sectors that require temporary & flexible work (eg, construction & public works), an overview is presented of the strategies supporting clandestine work. Using the example of the construction sector in the metropolitan area of Lisbon, the role of diverse agents (firms, subcontractors, workers, state institutions, & trade unions) in this network of informal labor is discussed -- as well as the different forms of vulnerability to which the foreign clandestine workers are exposed. 4 Tables, 2 Figures, 19 References.

All over Europe Metropolitan Regions are the centres of economic, political and cultural life. They are places for the mobilisation, concentration and canalisation of creativity. This creative energy results in technical and cultural innovations, new businesses and services, as well as in the change of societal values and standards. For that reason Metropolitan Regions gain increasing importance as locomotives for an economically successful development of Europe - for the European Union and its member states as well as for the further states of the Council of Europe. A key factor for the success of a Metropolitan Region is Good Metroolitan Governance. This report describes its main characteristics and gives recommendations on how to foster Good Governance in the Council of Europe's Metropolitan Regions.
