Manifesto. E l’Europa disumanizzò sé stessa
No full textIl Manifesto nasce dall’esperienza di un convegno organizzato a Palermo, da Giulia de Spuches, dal titolo: E l’Europa disumanizzò sé stessa. È un appello alle geografie mediterranee militanti che vuole aprire uno spazio di dialogo per ripensare criticamente il Mediterraneo, con l’obiettivo di produrre un discorso contro-egemonico e critico uscendo così dalle gabbie retoriche imposte dagli stati-nazione e dell’UE sul tema delle migrazioni
Per una didattica della Geografia sociale: sopralluoghi ed esplorazioni urbane
Full text linkThis article analyses a didactic experience in the Borgo Ulivia neighborhood (Palermo), which originates from a research on council housing’s requalifying as a planning laboratory. In particular, its aim is to answer three questions: which choice guides the research in the field? What kind of didactic approach can we use? What kind of didactic restitution should be used? Within the didactic framework, answering these questions has three roles. First of all, we identify places capable of talking about tensions present at the local level but also in other geographical areas. Secondly, we reflect on the possible methods of research. Finally, we show how teaching is practiced both in the reflective approach and in the process of sharing with the class
Le due Algeri di Pontecorvo: spazi sociali nella lotta all’indipendenza
No full textNel breve saggio si riflette sul ruolo del cinema come mezzo capace di mostrare lo spazio come luogo di lotta politica. Attraverso l’ascolto e la narrazione degli “attori” locali, nell’elaborazione dei loro pensieri, si è costruito il film ma anche una metodologia della ricerca. Pontecorvo affronta il tema della violenza mostrandone tutti i lati oscuri, ne ricostruisce l’escalation senza dimenticare che il centro della storia è la resistenza anticoloniale. Su queste basi, il saggio, mostra come lo spazio di Algeri sia frammentato in due (colonizzatori e colonizzati) e come la lotta sfrutti le caratteristiche topologiche della citta
Geographies of Mediterranean
No full textThe article aims to interpret Mediterranean dissonances by reading the boundaries through three theoretical-methodological ways: the metaphor of existence, the concept of community and that of the diaspora.
In a Mediterranean Sea viewed as a mobile boundary, human movements produce dissemination, identities that are not unidirectional but rather transnational; the partiality of the subjectivity that follows is an interesting way to question us. The article therefore shows how the migrations seen from the “North” are closely linked to the implementation of security devices rather than welcoming politics. Moreover, the institution, through its changing laws, creates precarious lives in the first place, and then in the very difficult task of showing an overall picture, it often forgets that migration policies should more often deal with the point of view of the communities already present in the area.
The story of the cancellation of the variable safety distance between the “colonial” center and the “colonized periphery” puts on the skin of migrants a gap to fill: on the one hand, a cartographic representation that has shrunk the world in such a way that it is feasible without friction, on the other hand, a fact that often, in the time of one trip, makes individuals: migrants, expatriates, refugees, exiles. Europe invented precarious lives: the concept of citizenship automatically creates a being inside and being outside of it
Mediterranean geographies from the abyss. Traces of the wake: boats and shipwrecks
No full textIn the Mediterranean maritime spaces of the violent wake, Europe acts as a spectator as if the shipwrecks were an element of nature. I will use the lens of critical ocean geographies to show that these shipwrecks are phenomena of a history where Europe is an actor. This article argues that, rather than falling into the vertex obscuring the vortex, it might be possible to implement an inversion of the Mediterranean experience by interweaving human and more-than-human organic natures as part of our Mediterranean experience. Looking, therefore, at a geobiological history, taking care not to decentralize the migrant body. To do this, I propose a virtual dialogue between the performance ‘And Europe dehumanized itself’ and other art expressions reflecting on the Mediterranean question
Il brand «Palermo arabo-normanna» e le sue geografie immaginarie
No full textIn 2015, Unesco included the Arab-Norman itinerary of Palermo, Cefalù and Monreale in its list of World Heritage Sites. The application dossier states: “is the international confirmation of the beauty and cultural, artistic and historical greatness of Palermo [...] it will represent (...) a stimulus of tourism development and new economy”. The intentions of the promoting committee are immediately stated: it will be the cultural lever that will set in motion the new foundations of the experience economy (Pine e Gilmore, 1999), now dominant since the end of the 20th and beginning of the 21st century.
The underlying question will be “who possesses the powers of imagination – and – where they are materially deployed” (Daniels, 2011). And again, how is culture shaping our spatial imaginaries and material understandings of the landscapes around us
NARRAZIONI MARGINALI DA UN’ESCURSIONE “INDISCIPLINARE” ALLA BIENNALE ARCHITETTURA 2021
Full text linkIf Neil Smith and David Harvey find space at the Arsenale, if at the Giardini the exercise is to dis-explore the Earth, it is because the Bien-nale is about surveying the crisis space of globalisation: it forces us to in-terrogate the geopolitical map of contemporaneity between the Anthropo-cene, techno-capitalism, encroachments and adaptations. This is why we thought of sharing a visit to the Biennale with those geographers for whom the exercise proposed by Architects is essential to our theoretical, disciplinary, ethical, civil and very human present of being geographers.
Our notes in the margin depend on this invitation to investigate the po-tential of the object of marginality starting from the concept of “hole in the plot - which - nourishes the other plots” (Negarestani, 2021, p. 106). Hole or absence that stands for the missed encounter between Geogra-phy (the material on display) and geographical discipline to imagine plots, narratives and “undisciplined” alliances to come
