Abstract

Tom Avermaete demonstrates how the work of Constantinos Doxiadis, Michel Ecochard, and Otto Koenigsberger expanded the definition of infrastructure, making it part of the development agenda. Regarding plans as an integrating framework rather than a fixed vision, these figures, despite their shortcomings, helped emphasize agency over one's environment as a fundamental need.
