After urban planning, where projects were imposed on territories, far removed from residents and environmental concerns, times have changed: a bottom-up globalization is experimenting with new ways of doing things. Mutability, defined as the capacity of cities to accommodate change and foster possibilities, represents an extraordinary potential for approaching territories and temporalities differently. This book proposes several conditions for putting it into practice, drawing on experiences in France and Latin America.
