Diverse meetings organized by the United Nations since the beginning of the millennium provide an overview of the dominant ideas about the city, a good description of the problems encountered and solutions discussed. This allows us to reflect on the problems of the modern city and on prospects for the future. We face great difficulties in relation to the city's present and future. We must express our own ideas on how we conceive the city and how we want it to be, to formulate these desires for the future, and to be willing to discuss them publicly. Thinking about the future of the city must start with the recognition that the future depends on us, and that we should present alternatives in relation to our wishes for the city

Palabras clave : Problems of the city; urban future; thinking about the future.
