Résumé

Miguel Ángel Troitiño Vinuesa (1947-2020) was a talented territorial analyst and a leading figure in Spanish geographic science. His work has had an outstanding resonance in Latin American countries, an area in which he generously developed teaching and research activities. Reading the Territory: Tribute to Miguel Ángel Troitiño brings together the intellectual fruits of a group of authors who responded enthusiastically to the call to join the publishing project and thus it was possible to compile 78 chapters organized into four themes: city and urban planning, territory and territorial development, tourism, tourism and heritage. In addition, the book includes a prologue, a presentation and two chapters that gloss the context of origin and the scientific career of Troitiño. Our honoree stood out for his thoughtful originality when designing integrated planning strategies and for his audacity to make territorial knowledge operational, he was a pillar in the construction of applied geography. Thanks to its rich and innovative legacy, it is a beacon that provides keys to interpret the territory and proposes to understand it not as a mere support, but as a resource for sustainable development.
