Fabio
Vanin (2013). Maputo, cidade aberta – Maputo, open city.
The book is the result of the investigation conducted
in the Mozambican Capital by the author for his Ph.D in Urbanism (IUAV
University of Venice, IT) and aims at highlighting some of the most relevant
urban, architectural, social and cultural features of the city that are today
confronted with the rapid transformations caused by the economic growth of the
country. This delicate moment poses urgent questions on the future urban
development that is divided by opposed forces: the ambition of becoming another
Dubai and the struggle of keeping the existing identity.
