The pandemic outbreak has put in crisis some values of the contemporary metropolis that seemed to have been achieved: the trend to urban
concentration and the widely shared equation between density and sustainability, the speed and ease of physical mobility, the idea of space
sharing, and more generally all sharing economies. Beyond the rhetoric of a return to "normality", it is necessary to rethink even the structure of
our cities by enhancing the positive acquisitions of modernity and some experiences prematurely discarded - proxemics, the city as a place of the
relationship between bodies and spaces, the resumption of reflection on public space as a shared value of civitas.
