Abstract

The chapter 'Smart City Myth and Challenge' delves into the dual nature of the Smart City concept, tracing its evolution from an authoritative narrative to a discredited one. It introduces an open laboratory model that encourages a debate centered around six key concepts: Disciplines, Research, City, Territory, Levels of Action, and Working Directions. This approach aims to foster a shared and authoritative understanding of the Smart City, bridging the gap between its current fragmented interpretations and its potential as a positive myth for communities. The chapter also highlights the need for interdisciplinary collaboration, involving experts from various fields, and emphasizes the importance of real-world experimentation and dialogue among stakeholders to develop a coherent and sustainable vision for contemporary cities.
