Le aree periurbane come cerniera tra città e campagna: una strategia di riassetto territoriale fondata sui valori della contemporaneità
No full textIl paper indaga sulle forme relazionali urbano-rurali e focalizza l'attenzione sulla dimensione ecologico-paesaggistica e su quella alimentare. Sono individuati alcuni degli obiettivi che la società contemporanea deve prefiggersi, poiché le è richiesto un cambiamento di visione della realtà territoriale e degli spazi di risulta interposti tra la città e la campagna propriamente dette: ridefinire le funzioni di tali spazi in un'ottica lontana da quella urbanocentrica, la quale attribuirebbe ruoli marginali e ancillari all'agricoltura
Implementing the environmental dimension of the EU’s urban agenda 2014-2020. The strategy for sustainable development in the medium-sized cities of Western Sicily
Get PDFThis work illustrates the planning experience carried out Sustainable Urban Development (SSUD), whose general objectives are strengthening territorial cohesion and to increase accessibility to the local resources. The SSUD action plan, being funded with around 70 millions euro, through which such objectives can be better achieved and reciprocally integrated.
After a brief description of the territory targeted by the concept within the broader debate on sustainable mobility. In section 3, a series of evidences are provided to identify the demand and potential for the development the fourth section, after describing the expceted results is suggested why in this area a greenway is the better solution to increase accessibility to a broad range of natural resources and functions (natural sites, landscapes, cultural heritage, urban functions)

Social Housing in Europe
No full textThe debate about the future of social housing in Europe is currently more lively compared to earlier years. The housing demand in general and social housing in particular are intense. They are increasingly worrying the concentration of most of the social housing in the most disadvantaged areas and the low economic levels of tenants living in these apartments. This contribute explores the state of fact of social and urban policies in some European countries, in order to offer an exhaustive framework of the variegated situation
Popolazione e dinamiche demografiche
No full textIl contributo illustra lo stato della popolazione e delle dinamiche demografiche in Sicilia all'interno del volume collettaneo Sicilia. Rapporto sul Territorio 2018, edito dalla sezione regionale dell'Istituto Nazionale di Urbanistica. Osservando l’andamento della popolazione negli ultimi quindici anni (2001-2016) in chiave comparativa, l’immagine complessiva che si
ricava della Sicilia è di una regione relativamente dinamica nel contesto del Mezzogiorno, ma con tassi di crescita significativamente inferiori
a quelli nazionali e di alcune regioni del centro- nord in particolare. Tra i due censimenti (2001- 2011) la popolazione residente in Sicilia è complessivamente cresciuta dello 0,7%, un
valore pari a circa un sesto di quello nazionale (4,3) e soprattutto di gran lunga inferiore al dato registrato dalle regioni italiane con i più consistenti incrementi demografici, quali l’Emilia Romagna,
il Lazio, la Lombardia. In ragione di ciò, la Sicilia si mantiene al di sopra della soglia dei cinque milioni di abitanti, accogliendo circa l’8,4% della popolazione italiana e mantenendo il quarto
posto tra le regioni italiane più popolate, ma non è escluso che già nel breve periodo possa essere superata dal Veneto come quarta regione italiana per peso demografico
Strategic Environmental Assessment: Integrating Landscape and Urban Planning
No full textThis book explores the opportunities offered by Strategic Environmental Assessment in the context of guaranteeing the synchronized integration of landscape (in all its aspects) within urban plans, thereby helping to overcome the constraints of rigidly framed, sector-focused laws and a purely aesthetic concept of landscape. In pursuit of this goal, various scholars have previously attempted to construct arrays of indicators relating to the different conceptions of “landscape”. This book critically examines the most complete proposals of this nature, systematizing and comparing them and, finally, offering some guidelines with respect to their codification within specific application protocols. After opening chapters exploring the origins of the problem and analysing the European normative frame for Strategic Environmental Assessment, two case studies are described and discussed. A model is then presented for the evaluation of the effects of urban plans on landscape, including in cultural and perceptual terms. The author demonstrates that, when suitably employed, Strategic Environmental Assessment can indeed facilitate the integration of environmental, economic, and social sustainability into urban planning
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
