The fin de siècle and "bridge to the new millennium" metaphors swept through the humanities, arts, and social sciences in the late 1990s and generated a spate of research that reassessed prevailing epistemologies. Nowhere was this taking stock of paradigms more blatant than in assessments of modernity, and its theoretical cousin, postmodernism. Studies of the built environment provide an excellent venue to trace the confluences of these ideas because architecture, design, and planning reflect the interplay of history, politics, and the social construction of public spaces. These processes manifested themselves clearly in Latin America, the most urban realm of the so-called Third World
