Abstract

The main theme of this paper is to clarify the prescription of the town planning in the Spanish colonial laws, "Recopilacion de leyes de los reynos de las Indias" promulgated in 1680 by the King, Carlos II, and also to compare it with the previous "Ordinances of Felipe II" promulgated in 1573. Apparently the Laws of Carlos II are full of quotations on urban planning from the Ordinances of Felipe II and there is a strong continuity between these laws in terms of the vision of urban planning that Spain had pictured through the 16^ and 17^ centuries.
