Abstract
Between 1950 and 1980, many intermediate and minor cities underwent similar phenomena to those experienced by large metropolises, such as accelerated population growth, urban plan expansion, land markets and the adoption of new denser architectural typologies. This paper reviews the case of Arica, a northern Chilean town, as an example of urban morphology produced according to the notion of developmentalism for intermediate and minor cities. It considers exploiting urban structural analysis to revise current phenomena and smaller urban configurations that have emerged under developmentalism ideas. It proposes to exploit structural urban analysis for the revision of more current phenomena and to analyze minor urban configurations that emerged under developmental ideas, where the relationship between architectural typologies and urban morphologies is not strictly corresponding and can assume characteristics that are difficult to define in traditional urban morphological studies.
