CASTRO HERRERA, María Pilar e MIRANDA, Humberto. Urbanization in Ecuador and the Importance of State Planning in Creating an Intermediate City (2007-2017): The Case of Milagro. Territ. [online]. 2021, n.44, pp.113-141. Epub 23-Jul-2023. ISSN 0123-8418. https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/territorios/a.9202.
The implementation of the planning policy reached an important stage in the territorial reorganization of Ecuador in the period 2007-2017. The objective of this document is to discuss the strengthening of intermediate cities as one of the main effects of this policy. For this, first, a brief analysis of the historical process of Ecuadorian urbanization is carried out, which shows the difficulties caused by the constitution of a vertical urban network, with few medium-sized cities. Then, it analyzes how the decentralization plans and the deconcentration measures implemented by the national planning policy contributed to reinforcing Milagro's position in the urban network of Ecuador. In the final considerations, the relevant contributions of state planning to strengthen the urban network in Ecuador are pointed out.
