The Disarticulation of the City: Cultural Heritage and Land-Use Planning in the Land Use Master Plans of Bogota, 2000 to 2019

The purpose of this research was to analyze the relationship between cultural heritage and land-use planning in Bogota's Land Use Master Plans from 2000 to 2019, correlating the historical perspective with public policy. A methodological framework is proposed to comparatively examine the Planes de Ordenamiento Territorial (POTs), to understand how cultural heritage is conceived therein, how this conception was materialized in the city, and the impacts of that materialization. The main conclusion is that the POTs do not clearly define the strategies to achieve the objectives formulated regarding cultural heritage, nor do take into account the community in the decision-making process.
