ARAGON, Milton. City and Welfare: The Tension Between Urbanization & Settlement. Rev. Costarric. Psic [online]. 2020, vol.39, n.1, pp.5-18. ISSN 1659-2913.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22544/rcps.v39i01.01.

This text refl ects on how the tension between urbanization and settlement exposes inhabitants to a constant state of stress and depression. Which points them towards harmful habits, leading to chronic degenerative diseases. Therefore, the city is not a space oriented to the welfare of the subjects.

Because, the factors that allow achieving well-being, which are places, objects, goods and health, are not taken into account. Hence, well-being, has a strong link with space, time and society. Where urbanization, would have to produce those harmonic spaces, which allow development, both physical and mental as well as economic.
