Urban environments, permeated by a concomitance of internal and external factors, are increasingly subject to a standardization, logically averse to authenticity. This study proposes to conduct an analysis, in the context of smart cities, of the concept of "aura" worked by Walter Benjamin and the liquid surveillance in the form of Zygmunt Bauman's post-panoptic. We sought to identify in urban development strategies and plans, as well as in politics and relations within the city, the destruction of "aura" and the intensification of control and liquid surveillance. At the end, it indicates possible developments of the current paradigms and issues to be investigated by future research in the area.
