Abstract

The article looks at the emerging notion of the heritage as a resource to the development from two inputs: the discipline of urban conservation and the global discourse on culture and development. To review progress on both and clarify the links between the city, historical environments and sustainability, a set of valuable views are identified to rethink strategies for urban development in the Andean and Ecuadorian cities.

Keywords: Heritage, conservation, town planning, Ecuador.
