Urban spaces, now under a globalization process, assess a growing multitude of official territories (institutional, administrative and political divisions such as municipalitiesand regions) and non-concrete territorialities (social groups building global/local relations). Always changing in the everyday urban life, they present extra complexities for those who cope with cities management. The drawing ofthe formal territory becomes old-fashioned, considering the magnitude of new relations over urban spaces and the multitude of new interests and needs. Built up by social movements, new territorialities do not divide the space as a mosaic or as an one-thousand-piece puzzle, but are compounded of what one could call fragments of a kaleidoscope outlining the anachronism of other hounderies.The overlay of such territories/territorialities and the difficulties of the planning are discussed in this paper.
