    The role of shopping malls in shaping the Lisbon Metropolitan Area: The Amoreiras Shopping Center case study
    (Edições Universitárias Lusófonas, 2013) Cardim, João; Escola de Comunicação, Arquitetura, Artes e Tecnologias da Informação
    The Amoreiras Shopping Center (Tomás Taveira, inaugurated in 1985) is one of the most relevant case studies for the understanding of the shopping center phenomenon in the Lisbon region. One of the first major examples of this typology in Portugal, the Amoreiras mark the moment when large shopping centers materialize the fundamental space for the development of a consumer society, made possible due to the stabilization of the country in the post-revolution period of the 1980s. This communication is part of a larger investigation program proposed for a Ph.D. in Architecture and Urbanism, with the provisional title Urban (re)Centralization – The role of shopping malls in shaping the Lisbon Metropolitan Area: between Centro Comercial da Portela and Dolce Vita Tejo. The proposed dissertation assumes the shopping center as an essential element in the regional planning of the metropolitan territories, and also as a potential regenerator of depressed urban and suburban areas.
