“…For instance, the large-scale research project Switzerland, an urban portrait (Diener, Herzog, Meili, de Meuron, & Schmid, 2005) clearly takes issue with, and distances itself from, a global and fine-grained attention to the diffuse horizontalities of the country's territory. Instead, in the name of the "wealth of the whole organism," it expresses a preference for selecting, differentiating and hierarchizing its different parts with a view to its future development.…”

“…Instead, in the name of the "wealth of the whole organism," it expresses a preference for selecting, differentiating and hierarchizing its different parts with a view to its future development. It argues in favor of rearranging the country's political geography through five clearly distinct urbanization types-metropolitan regions, city networks, quiet zones, alpine resorts and alpine fallow lands-in the interest of "strengthening and completing processes already underway" (Diener et al, 2005). In this perception of the country, metropolitan areas-while widely supported by the recreational and rural territoriesrepresent the very core of the interpretation, while the fallow lands remain as an un-integrated "void" at the periphery-both figuratively and literally-of "urban" Switzerland, thought to be functionally necessary but in fact performing no synergetic function within a larger whole.…”

“…As other scholars have already highlighted (Dematteis, 1975;Gaido 1999;Perlik and Bätzing, 1999;Perlik, Messerli and Bätzing, 2001;Bätzing, 2005;Dematteis, 2009;Diener et al 2005), this pressure produces an extended metropolitan dimension, from the lowlands up to the mountain, albeit with a density that is not structurally constant and with different modalities.…”

“…-En segundo lugar, porque el semicantón de Basilea, que ejerce el efecto polarizador sobre el conjunto trinacional (Diener et al, 2006), no sólo se inserta en un área fronteriza, sino además condicionada por el relieve y con una extensión de apenas 37km2. Es además independiente del cantón de Basilea-Campiña, hecho que suma una frontera interna más a las ya mencionadas.…”
