PERSPECTIVE ON CEMETERIES FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF TEMPORALITY AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

Throughout history, cemeteries have transcended beliefs and the evolution of local history, serving as places of human and social development. In recent decades, however, they have become increasingly relevant to land use and environmental planning as large urban population centers have absorbed them. This document provides a perspective on these scenarios from the point of view of temporality, recognizing the importance of cemeteries in the interstitial territory between industrial growth and history, and their role in sustainable development. A classic review was carried out to this end, allowing us to find different points of view framed within the theory of the long duration and its relationship with geohistory, sustainable development, necropolises, urban development, globalization, and its impact on the environmental development of cities.
