Abstract: This article adresses different ways of understanding the causes of a spatial planning crisis in Colombia. Contrary to the government’s approach, which attributes the failure of spatial planning to technical shortcomings, we argue that authorities underestimate specific historical dynamics that create hindrances to the success of spatial planning in Colombia. Spatial planning has been historically the subject of two large debates in Colombian society: firstly, the debate on the limitations to the right to private property and land redistribution and secondly, the debate on territorial organization. These historical tensions are central explanatory factors for the spatial planning crisis in Colombia.
