plaNext – next generation planning: verso una peer-review aperta
Get PDFQuesto contributo presenta alcune riflessioni sui primi anni di vita di plaNext – next generation planning (http://journals.aesop-planning.eu/), la rivista della rete Young Academics (AESOP-YA) di AESOP, Associazione Europea delle Scuole di Pianificazione. L’obiettivo è contribuire al dibattito sulla peer-review (o revisione tra pari) come standard di valutazione della qualità della ricerca nel contesto delle riviste online. In particolare, intendiamo focalizzare l’attenzione su una delle componenti del modo in cui il processo di peer-review è comunemente organizzato, ovvero sulla blindness, l’anonimato garantito ai revisori degli articoli (blind peer-review) e, in certe riviste, anche agli autori (double-blind peer-review).info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

No full textReport WS6: Immigration and new inhabitants in the Gateway Cities
No full textIt is in the last years that the planning discipline has fully recognized immigration issues as
decisive for their role both in the urban studies and in the policy design. Nowadays, in Italy and
Europe, the shifting social composition of the cities asks the planner for new cognitive
instruments and new strategies for the interventions on urban systems.
The present report resumes the results of the workshop “Immigration and new inhabitants in the
gateway cities” which took place inside the IX Biennial of Towns and Town Planners of
Europe, held in Genoa in September 2011. In the two days of debate, a number of Italian and
European examples has been presented: the report underlines three issues about immigration
and the city which emerged from the presentations: the role and the methods of public policy
interventions, the absence of policies and institutional vacuum, the micro-scale effects of the
presence of immigrant people.
The debate has clearly showed how Italy is pinpointed by a great variety of policies and
practices, arising by a fragmented and not yet clear institutional frame about immigration
regulations. At the same time, some examples have described processes connected with absence
of institutional actors: in the total absence of public interventions different phenomena arise.
Within such a context, sometimes natives and immigrants are able to develop their own
capacities to face the lack of services and residences.
In conclusion, the issues emerged during the workshop questions about the challenges for urban
planning. In an institutional context where the recognition of the citizenship is an issue far to be
solved for large portions of immigrant populations, the challenge for urban planning can be
resumed as that of finding local levels of access to the public space, to be intended both as a
“physical” and a social one. Can planning and local policies act “social” in a context where
national and communitarian laws just face immigration fluxes as economical ones
Spatial planning and territorial governance in Southern Europe between economic crisis and austerity policies
No full textThis article examines how spatial planning systems have changed in Portugal, Spain, Italy and Greece in times of economic recession and austerity politics, in amid pressures of external actors and local conditions and cultures. We analyse the round of reforms of spatial planning and territorial governance implemented by national governments under pressures by European institutions, as well as local responses to them. On the one hand, we highlight how European institutions have used the conditionalities attached to bailout packages and other instrument of pressure to frame what can be considered an implicit coherent ‘Southern European EU spatial planning policy’, or an EU spatial planning policy ‘by stealth’ . On the other, we suggest that Southern European planning amid crisis and austerity should be understood, together, as an ‘extreme’ field, where attempts of change clash with historical resistances; ‘prototypes’ for new rounds of neoliberalization; and a political space that continuously develops through top-down/bottom-up dialectic conflicts
A territorial contradiction
No full textSpatial planning and environmental restoration are essential corollaries to the management of protected natural areas, however, without a sound awareness of the evolutionary consistency of biocoenoses, the harmonious integration between human activities and ecosystem preservation remains an unattainable utopia. The theorization of a balanced welfare, inspired by the universal tendency of ecosystems to reach a steady state, has to go along with the defection from any economic gree
