Border Areas, Economic Development, Land Use, Spanish-Portuguese Border, Territorial ImpactAbstract
Border areas are highly sensitive, mainly regarding its territorial success - the 'line' between success and failure is extremely tenuous; thus, a deep knowledge of all the factors and actions that can influence their success should be analyzed and studied.
In this regard, an analysis of the land use in the socio-economic development of these regions is seen as pivotal for a better understanding of its origin, as well as to promote changes and/or measures aiming at its success, and sustainable growth.
Contextually, methods and analysis tools were applied to Iberian case studies - Spanish cities on the Luso-Spanish border belonging to Euro-cities.
Through the research, it is possible to verify how the land use influences the socio-economic development of the analyzed cities. The data collected is critical for a correct management and spatial planning, forming the basis for main actors and/or decision makers.
