Italian term or phrase: disurbanista
"Nonostante lo sguardo attento rivolto all’Occidente e ai meccanismi della città capitalista, la rivista non pare rinunciare a far emergere con orgoglio al pubblico internazionale l’unicità della propria storia, da un lato veicolandone il racconto in modo diretto, attraverso i testi tradotti in lingua inglese, dall’altro allestendo un ricco e ben documentato apparato iconografico che rimarrà una cifra importante e riconoscibile del percorso editoriale, fino agli ultimi anni. Nella prima fase, l’attenzione per Mosca non è ancora predominante, ma vengono indagati i modelli insediativi derivati dalla pianificazione di matrice sovietica e intrinsecamente influenzati dalle iniziali interpretazioni ‘disurbaniste’. Sono temi che ritornano in modo quasi carsico, nel dibattito sulle alternative di sviluppo urbano o nell’esplorazione attenta delle proprietà e potenzialità del legno, per eccellenza il materiale della tradizione costruttiva russa. Il n. 30/2004 dedicato al racconto e all’approfondimento delle ‘nuove capitali’ emerse dalla dissoluzione dello Stato sovietico rappresenta uno dei numeri che suscitano maggiore curiosità per i lettori internazionali. Con grande efficacia comunicativa viene prefigurato il confronto con alcune capitali occidentali attraverso lo studio del loro impianto urbano (ridisegnato alla medesima scala) e si dedica a sondare le prospettive di crescita delle autonomie decisionali locali, anche con riferimento al progetto di città."

disurbanist
Explanation:
not my area, but seems to be this.

Disurbanist school
The disurbanist school was led by the theorists M. Okhitovich and M. Ginsburg.[1] In contrast to the urbanists, the disurbanists saw the achievement of the Marxist goal of the dissolution of the difference between town and country as the total abolition of the traditional concept of the town.[2] They proposed that settlement be dispersed across the whole of the Soviet Union in the form of continuous ribbon developments.....
