Con el propósito de dar elementos para la reflexión sobre el diseño urbano, desde la dimensión arquitectónico-espacial y acudiendo a otras disciplinas relacionadas con el urbanismo para encontrar un balance entre la práctica y la teoría, Dieter Frick propone una mirada comprometida tanto con la ciudad como con lo que en ella sucede, puesto que es el acontecer en la cotidianidad lo que orienta el quehacer de la planeación urbana.
Lo urbano (asociado indiscutiblemente al concepto de ciudad), constituido en virtud de la división social y espacial de las relaciones sociales de producción en un Estado nación en el que se localizan según estas lógicas las actividades comerciales, de servicios e industriales, entre otras; enfrenta una serie de transformaciones que hacen cada vez más complejo distinguir lo rural de lo urbano con la misma nitidez de antes, e impone grandes retos a los gobiernos y las comunidades asentadas en estos territorios.
