- Abstract : The book interrogates on the new realities of urban peripheries and their associated landscape, in the context of extensive growth of the cities, particularly those such as Bucharest. This paper is a pleading for professional reconsideration of these deprived urban areas which reflect the cumulate and unresolved of many of the big cities problems. The research on urban peripheries brings a new approach by highlighting their landscape, seen as a complex resource for revitalizing, taking into account the need for cities' sustainable development, on the one hand, and on the other hand the opportunity of promoting cultural and aesthetic qualities of the landscape, of any landscape -in accordance with the principles contained in The European Landscape Convention. Also, the book aims to ensure, beyond the theoretical level, by deciphering and analysis of landscape urban peripheries, to create the prerequisites of theoretical, methodological and practical approach of revitalizing landscape operations in these territories.
