This publication aims to present research topics that contribute to technical, academic, or scientific knowledge. These topics must be related to the lines of research of the IEU: the debate on urban phenomena; the relations between cities, States and political formation of citizenship; the economic, physical, cultural and social transformations of urban areas; the territorial, security and change analyzes of contemporary cities and their impacts on countries in Latin America and the rest of the world; among others. Thereby, the IEU seeks to democratize specialized knowledge on urban issues and contributes to the discussion and/or application of research results.
