    Il fenomeno delle aree industriali dismesse e il loro successivo riuso è un tema di grande interesse per quei sociologi che si occupano di diseguaglianze e culture urbane per analizzarne gli effetti socio-spaziali sul territorio. Attraverso una metodologia qualitativa – costituita da osservazione partecipante al quartiere e interviste in profondità – questo lavoro vuol contribuire ad una maggiore comprensione delle trasformazioni sociali innescate dalla dismissione industriale Michelin nella città di Trento. Il rapporto tra il patrimonio simbolico di un quartiere operaio e il futuro scenario della gentrification, rende particolarmente interessante il caso del quartiere San Giuseppe, che può essere letto come esemplificativo della complessità urbana

    Gentrification and Diversity : Rebranding Milan's Chinatown

    No full text
    This book examines lived experiences of making, inhabiting and appropriating space, in relation to the upscale commercial gentrification of the Milan Chinatown. It inquires about the significance of diverse neighborhoods as emerging multicultural spaces? Are we talking about neighborhood entrepreneurs providing services and entertainment to create local urban culture, or are we talking about political/economic forces in the commodification of ethnic and cultural diversity? Starting from these questions, this book uses innovative visual ethnography and critical urban research to understand the relationship between community-based entrepreneurs, local politics, residents’ sense of belonging, and patterns of city branding strategies in Milan, the fashion capital of Italy. This book is intended for researchers and students in the fields of sociology, anthropology, urban studies, geography, and urban planning. Additionally, it is appropriate for practitioners in the fields of urban planning, housing policies, and community development

    The pandemic and the academic mothers: present hardships and future perspectives

    No full text
    Gender differences in academia are well-known. Women publish less, achieve higher positions less frequently, and have more interrupted careers. Mothers, more than fathers or childless men and women, suffer these disadvantages. Women academics have to deal with the work-family conflict, the participation in both work and family roles are incompatibly demanding. The closure of childcare services and the impossibility to benefit from informal care (mainly via grandparents) made the pandemic a potential accelerator of these drawbacks for academic mothers. Academic work is basically incompatible with the everyday care of children. Analyzing in-depth interviews, in this article we show how mothers of young children had to reorganize their job priorities during the Covid-19 global pandemic. Moreover, we describe the perceived effects of the pandemic on their future career. We showed that the pandemic changed the priorities of academic mothers in a direction that is unfavorable to their careers: mothers devoted most of their time to teaching duties and stopped research. Moreover, they felt an increased gap in their relative competitiveness with male and childless colleagues
