Resumen
A partir de una serie de resultados prácticos —proyectos de diseño e investigación urbana—, este artículo expone varias reflexiones metodológicas y propuestas disciplinares en colación a referentes que van construyendo de modo paulatino un marco teórico para cada una de las temáticas. Empieza con la justificación del formato del manifiesto y su relación con el método práctico empleado, continúa con las definiciones iniciales de infraestructuras y sus connotaciones políticas, para luego establecer el problema (la violencia estructural) y sugerir alternativas preliminares (la solidaridad activa). Seguidamente, se consolida la propuesta metodológica de infraestructuras leves y su relación con la no violencia, para concluir en un llamado a la invención disciplinar.
