| Yhteenveto: | This paper explores the nature of the unequal institutionalization of power in urban management, through a double exploration. On the one hand, the analysis space is presented in a global context, and on the other, the case of the metropolis of Barcelona is explored. The starting hypothesis is that the public and social empowerment in the urban management of the metropolis of Barcelona requires, before being effective, its international geopolitical accommodation to participate in the privilege of the added value generated in a globalized economy. The design of the investigation deepens the understanding of a geopolitical and social complicity in an unequal order that builds an unequal system of cities, and how this situation is reflected in the case of Barcelona. By contrasting the circular analysis of the results, it is concluded that the hypothesis is affirmative, but with a particularity. It identifies the process of political and social empowerment of urban management and the active role of the economic sector, but at the same time it is found that the globalized economy is not subject to effective political and social control. This situation is framed by the unequal balance of power observable in the international economic order, which is the result of a historical process characterized by unequal competition among the states of the world. |
