Description
Abstract
El municipio de Catral es un ejemplo paradigmático en la Huerta histórica del Segura.
Este territorio muestra las consecuencias del proceso de mutación del paisaje agrario debido
a un cambio en el modelo socioeconómico, que utiliza el recurso suelo para implantar el uso
turístico-residencial, incentivado desde la legislación urbanística y una laxitud administrativa
en el control de la aplicación de la misma. Este caso de estudio ofrece un patrón de transfor-
mación que ha evolucionado desde el respeto al medio y conocimiento secular de las carac-
terísticas del lugar de los primigenios asentamientos compactos, a una colonización dispersa,
carente de estructura formal e integración sobre el espacio en el que se desarrolla
ABSTRACT The municipality of Catral is a prime example of the historical Huerta of the Segura River. The process of transformation of agricultural landscape, resulting from changes in the socio-economic model, has had a significant impact on the landscape perception. To understand this transformation, it is important to consider that new touristic and residential use of land has been encouraged and supported by favorable town planning regulations and a certain degree of laxness in terms of compliance with urbanistic rules. This case study highlights a pattern reflecting a change from the earlier settlers, whose respect and understanding of the territorial environment is evident from their development of a fertile agricultural system from marshland, to the present-day residential developments that follow a suburban sprawl model, which lacks formal structure and landscape integration
