About the cities are generated speeches that depart from figures on the demographic and spatial growth, the multiplication and chaos of the transport, the difficulties to move in public spaces and the environmental problems, to which are few the new contributions to be made. This research article addresses the processes of the configuration of the urban landscape of the city of Santiago de Cali, Colombia, from a critical and genealogical perspective that allows to multiply the sense of the urban, the landscape and the space to build the concept of a humanly livable city, located under the rehabilitation of singularity and complexity. Methodologically, a bibliographical review is carried out covering two perspectives, a historical and a genealogical-critical. It was found that the fundamental problem for the construction of a subjective city is neither technical nor scientific but ethical-political, of the forms of the man to be and to be led in the world. It was concluded that the task is to carry out a critical analysis of technicist rationalism, that is, the urbanistic ideology, the technocracy of the urban, and reflect on the possibility of thinking of a broad concept of city that involves the human multiplicity.
