Drawing on an in-depth critical analysis of Madrid's planning processes over the past century, Michael Neuman highlights a planning cycle in this city from preparation to implementation. He argues that Madrid's success in creating a positive urban environment is due to the fact that the planners created images as key tools that coordinated planning and urban policy.
