Introduction to special book review issue: giving food its space. Reflections about food planning and urban food systems
No full textThe Atlas of food. Processes, actors and representations toward the food strategy of Torino metropolitana
No full textThe proposed contribution presents the theoretical background, the aims and the design of an action-research project developed and partially implemented by an interdisciplinary group or researchers based in Turin (Italy), including geographers, planners, IT experts, agronomists, and designers. The core of the project is the development of a methodology of analysis of urban food systems based on the realization of the Atlas of Food: a digital participatory platform, which aims to be at the same time a container of information and a virtual space for participation about food systems. The major scale of analysis and representation of the Atlas is the metropolitan area of Turin, even if information are also collected and organized at other scales, according to specific needs, in order to highlight the multi-scalarity of the food systems.
The Atlas is divided into three main sections: a) a collection of scientific and non-scientific articles, thesis and other materials, about food and food systems; b) a web-gis representing various aspects of the food system centered on Turin; c) a user-generated interactive map, integrating a crowdmapping approach with social networking

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Alcune riflessioni attorno al concetto di City Region Food System nelle politiche locali del cibo
Full text linkNel presente contributo affrontiamo la questione di un approccio nello studio e progettazione delle relazioni cibo-territorio, nella prospettiva di politiche locali del cibo come nuovo ambito di policy. Dopo aver sinteticamente delineato l’affermazione di tali politiche nel dibattito internazionale e italiano, ci interroghiamo su quale sia il loro territorio di riferi- mento. Il dibattito internazionale, stimolato da studi collegati alla FAO, fa riferimento al concetto di City Region Food System (CRFS), che metteremo in relazione sia con il più ampio dibattito sulla city-region, sia con altri modi di vedere il rapporto cibo-territorio, suggerendo alcune interessanti prospettive di approfondimento e un ulteriore bisogno di ricerca geografica
