Abstract
The spatial planning of the twentieth century shows different consequences of rigid uses of zoning as technical tool that determined too homogeneous urban areas. However, in the last twenty years the renovation of that zoning has been increasingly present in the Italian urban planning. The main question is: how has zoning changed in recent decades? Starting from this query, the paper proposes some reflections studying specific sources: Italian urban Plans, in particular the recent Plans of Bologna and Milan. Here it is argued that the indispensable overcoming of traditional zoning in recent urban Plans, although it has introduced important innovations on the necessary flexibility of the instruments themselves, at the same time has weakened the rules on the physical and social dimension of urban transformations.
