| description | The paper will focus on the old connection between cities and digital communication in light of transformations speeded up both in the social, economic and health emergency of Covid-19 and in the post-pandemic. Thereby, the aim of the study will be to notice significant changes in the agenda of our field andits relations with urbanistic dimensions and theories. Therefore, it will undertake a strategy of academicliterature review in three fundamental instances. Firstly, attention is turned to the conditions that have made possible to understand urban realities in relation to information machines. Secondly, the study will retrieve the definition and criticism of smart cities whose strength becomes legible as an interpretive framework for many digital technologies in cities of our region and in the particular context of global crisis. Finally, the article will address platform urbanism as a perspective that allows to investigate the spread and reconstruction of metropolitan spaces through platformization and app ecosystems. In these aspects we will find a possible agenda for our field that —if it did not wait for the health emergency tobegin— has heuristic capacity for understanding and explaining the future realities of Iberoamericancities in light of mutations derived from the new normalization. |

Este trabajo aborda la antigua relación entre ciudades y comunicación digital a la luz de las aceleradastransformaciones tanto en la emergencia social, económica y sanitaria del Covid-19 como en la pospandemia. Con el objetivo de advertir cambios significativos en la agenda de nuestro campo y sus relaciones con dimensiones y teorías urbanísticas, nos aproximaremos desde una estrategia de revisión de la literatura académica a tres instancias fundamentales. En primer lugar, atenderemos a las condiciones que han hecho posible comprender las realidades urbanas en vinculación con máquinas de información tanto através de aproximaciones morfológicas como en la historia concreta de las ciudades digitales a iniciosde nuestra centuria. A continuación, nos detendremos en las definiciones y en las críticas a las smartcities cuya fuerza se hace legible como marco interpretativo para muchas de las tecnologías digitales enlas ciudades de nuestra región y en el contexto particular de la crisis global. Finalmente, abordaremosel urbanismo de plataformas como perspectiva para indagar la proliferación y reconstrucción de espacios metropolitanos a través de la plataformización y de ecosistemas de aplicaciones. En estos aspectosdescubriremos posibles líneas y temáticas de investigación para nuestro campo que —si no esperarona la emergencia sanitaria para comenzar— guardan capacidad heurística para comprender y explicarlas futuras realidades de las ciudades iberoamericanas a la luz de las mutaciones derivadas de la nuevanormalización.
