Resumen

La Contraurbanización ha sido calificada cmno un concepto caótico en la literatura especializada. Implica el movimiento demográfico y la desconcentración en las áreas urbanas, parece conformar un nuevo proceso de distribución espacial de la población y la definición de un nuevo modelo de asentamiento de la población en el espacio que puede llegar a superar la Teoría del Lugar Central. Los resultados de este proceso y movimiento demográfico generan una diversificación social e incluso la aparición de nuevas clases sociales en el campo y unas nuevas relaciones urbano-rurales. Ante estas circunstancias no nos debemos sorprender por encontrar tanto problemas como oportunidades a la hora de definir políticas de planificación territorial. Este artículo se centra en el análisis de la literatura científica internacional acerca de la Contraurbanización. La idea es la de contribuir a la búsqueda de sentido en los argumentos que sostienen la definición de la Contraurbanización y a impulsar su investigación en España y Latinoanaérica.

Palabras claves: contraurbanización, estudios monográficos regionales, estudios comparativos internacionales, teoría espacial, movimientos migratorios, sistema de asentamientos.

Abstract

Counterurbanization has been considered as a chaotic concept in the academic literature. It entails demographic movement and deconcentration in some urban areas and appears to be a new process of population's spatial distribution and the definition of a new settlement pattern which may exceed the Central Place Theory. The results of this process and demographic movement have led to societal divesification and even to the emergence of new classes in the countryside and new urban-rural relationships. In such circumstances it is not surprising that both problems and opportunities arise when it comes to making territory planning policies. This paper focuses on analizing the international scientific literature on Counterurbanization -particularly that of Anglosaxon countries- with an aim to contribute to the search of meaning in the arguments which support the definition of Counterurbanization and to foster its research both in Spain and Latinamerica.

Key words: Counterurbanization, regional monographic studies, international comparative studies, spatial theory, migratory movements, settlement systems.
