Abstract

Supply markets have emerged as a central theme in the urban policies of many cities around the world. After decades of relative neglect, largely due to the increase in other commercial formats (self-service stores, supermarkets and now digital internet shopping), markets are re-emerging on the urban agenda of local governments and have become the focus of interest for various investors and international institutions, such as the UN Habitat programme or the Inter-American Development Bank. The transformation, reconversion and even destruction of markets is not new. In the relatively recent past several markets were relocated and destroyed (Les Halles in Paris in 1971) or reconverted into cultural and commercial centers in the 1980s (Convent Garden in London and El Abasto in Buenos Aires). This book presents the contemporary problems and challenges of markets, as well as the recent projects, policies, trends and forms of management carried out to confront these challenges in various cities in Europe, Latin America and the Middle East. Several chapters of the book discuss the visions of the end of a "natural" life cycle of markets and whether the only way to modernize them in order to confront the competition of supermarket chains and online commerce is their reconversion into gourmet gastronomic and cultural consumption centers for tourists. The book, through the contribution of different sciences and disciplines, analyzes transversal themes such as cultural tourism, urban and architectural heritage, urban decline and revitalization, gentrification, memories and collective identities, and the circulation of urban policies and paradigms.
