Compact vs. Sprawl city. Theoretical perspectives in spatial policies. In Colombia local and national urban and regional policies suggest that urban growth should be guided with the aim of fostering compact urban forms. They are generally op-posed to any urban dispersal to avoid sprawl. This paper explores the ideological foundations of the compact city and evaluates contemporary empirical evidence to demonstrate the advantages or disadvantages of such urban form. This debate has become relevant be-cause urban growth Master Plans based on the compact city idea predominate, but many of them do not question the effects of these kinds of policies on contemporary urban and regional planning.
