Abstract
This chapter offers a sketch description of the nature of strategic processes in a land use and mobility perspective. The meaning and the role of strategic, communicative and political behaviour are considered; the importance of vision as a structuring tool, and the function and power of myths for the construction of visions, are stressed; finally, a comparison between the main characters of strategic process and land use plans is developed.
