Abstract

This essay is a reflection on how the city is a hub of innovation and development. It is the hub that gathers creative and skilled individuals in a constant exchange of ideas and knowledge. The other side of the dynamism of the city is the fact that it is also a hub of exploitation and destruction. The essay reflects on the possibility of building a just world from this dynamism.
