Introduzione
La tendenza, ormai consolidata, di considerare il territorio come un complesso sistema adattivo comporta difficoltà sia nel generalizzare modelli e approcci di gestione che nel valutarne risultati ed effetti. In tale ottica, è proprio l'attributo di "complessità" del territorio che ha stimolato maggiormente l'adozione di un approccio multidisciplinare nella conduzione delle due indagini commissionate ai ricercatori del Centro Interdipartimentale per la diffusione delle Scienze Umane e Sociali e per la costruzione di capitale umano (CISUS) dell'Università degli Studi di Salerno. I due studi, condotti nei comuni del GAL Irpinia, hanno avuto un duplice obiettivo: da un lato, la definizione delle dimensioni storiche, sociali ed economiche che caratterizzano la vocazione degli antichi mestieri e dell'artigianato artistico, dall'altro la descrizione dei tratti salienti che contraddistinguono il settore economico legato al benessere psicofisico in tale territorio. Il percorso di ricerca descritto nel volume ha consentito di far emergere processi di spoliazione, modificazione e/o adattamento di saperi ponendosi come base per una più adeguata azione dell'ars aedificandi del territorio irpino, con l'obiettivo di definire le condizioni in base alle quali creare i presupposti per la riappropriazione individuale e collettiva di saperi, memorie e culture locali. Un territorio considerato anche come uno "spazio semantico", in grado di esprimere segni, simboli e valori culturali che, in un'ottica sistemica, rappresentano condizioni di comunanza con gli interlocutori locali: i due studi consegnano così al lettore un insieme di indicazioni per creare un modello di sviluppo consapevole e sostenibile del territorio irpino
La patrimonializzazione dei paesaggi culturali in Tunisia. Il paesaggio minirario di M'dhilla esempio di Studio
In our research, we focused on the heritagization of cultural landscapes, due to the importance of reconsidering heritage as a combination of material and immaterial elements that interact, thereby elevating heritage to the status of socio-economic development leverage sectors. To do this, we chose to specify our research on mining landscapes, which, despite being evolving and dynamic, face a significant risk of disappearance simply due to the loss of function and the lack of awareness of their cultural and historical value.
This research project allows us to understand that the history of industrial areas, especially mining ones, warns us against dependence on limited natural resources and encourages us to consider alternative solutions. The cessation of mining activities poses significant socio-economic and environmental challenges that could become uncontrollable due to unemployment, poverty, and health problems related to pollution, rendering regions almost uninhabited and uninhabitable. This prompted other Western countries, notably Italy and France, to develop a new concept that defines the phase immediately following the cessation of mining operations: "post-mining".
To address the research questions of (1) whether the M'dhilla mining landscape is heritagizable and (2) whether it is possible to heritagize the M'dhilla mining landscape while it is still active, it was essential to study these past experiences to draw lessons and develop strategies adapted to the Tunisian reality, while considering local specificities and the needs of the population to ensure a successful transition to the post-mine era.
Our research is indeed a qualitative study that we conducted; therefore, we chose to highlight data collection and analysis methods that serve the intended research outcomes.
This research represents a modest reflection aiming at the heritagization of mining landscapes in Tunisia through attempts to propose adding new functions to the ongoing mining activities. The insights and outcomes, both methodological and prescriptive, provide new avenues for exploration regarding the strategies and modalities of heritagization for this type of landscape, by anticipating the end of mining activity, through an effective participatory approach which contributes to the socio-economic and cultural local developpement.

Co-authorship networks and scientific performance. Evidences from a case study by using different bibliographic archives
The present contribution aims at exploring the effects of collaborative behaviours on scholar scientific performance. Mainly thanks to the availability of international bibliographic archives, seminal studies in various fields have been focused on co-authorship networks as a proxy of scholars' collaborative skills. To this purpose, several data sources are available but they present some drawbacks, especially when a specific discipline or community is under analysis. For instance, international archives might not be able to cover all kinds of scientific production, especially for social sciences where papers can be published in books or in national-oriented journals.
In this scenario, we gathered co-authorship data on the scientific community of Italian academic statisticians as recorded in the Italian Ministry of University and Research database at March 2010. We used three bibliographic archives covering top-international journals as well as thematic and nationally oriented publications: Web of Science (WoS), Current Index to Statistics (CIS), and bibliographic information related to nationally funded research projects (PRIN). Since each data source showed peculiar characteristics influencing both network properties and performance results, we also discussed the main issues and the practical implications on merging data sources (i.e., record linkage and author name disambiguation) improving the bibliographic data quality for reconstruct an unified co-authorship network.
Both network and individual covariates are used to model individual h-index by Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution. Our results provided evidence of our hypotheses on distinct collaboration patterns among statisticians, as well as distinct effects of scientist network positions on scientific performance, by both Statistics subfield and data source.

Factorial Contiguity Maps to Explore Relational Data Patterns
Over the past few decades Social Network Analysis has found increasing application in many social research areas to describe relational ties among social entities. In this paper, we propose to use Multidimensional Data Analysis in the framework of SNA in order to explore the structural properties of a network. In particular, we refer to Contiguity Analysis in order to deal with relational data defined by ties among the actors and described by
network centrality and clustering coefficients. The expected results consist of the definition of a network meta-analysis able to synthesise and visualise the pattern of social relationships
in a metric space where the related data structure is described. The proposed method is applied to an illustrative example in the context of a virtual learning community
