The Smart Land Paradigm in the Sicani Territorial Archipelago
2017
With the aim to identify the specific identities of the Sicani territory, to interpret them in a perspective of innovative development and to define strategies capable of intercepting programming in progress, it has been deepened the “territorial archipelago” theoretical framework , recognizing it into the Sicani territory and trying to use it as the base of a possible development of a Smart Land, as a “non-gravitational” paradigm able to recognize and to direct the new relations of the rur-urban local systems.
Fostering resilience in Inner Areas. The Sicani case study in Sicily
2022
In recent years, the theme of the regeneration of small centres in fragile and marginal areas has returned to the centre of the Italian debate and public policies, as well as resilience practices in which culturally-based regenera-tion projects, community cooperatives and resettlement processes are based on a spatial dimension capable of playing an active and unprecedented role. The COVID-19 pandemic we are currently experiencing has reignited the debate on fragile areas, reinforcing the perception of those territorial ine-qualities between metropolitan and inner areas exacerbated by the crisis. In fact, the pandemic has further highlighted the serious shortcomings in the provision of servi…
Aligning Inner Peripheries with rural development in Italy: Territorial evidence to support policy contextualization
2021
Abstract Inner Peripheries is a recent concept based on both peripherality and marginality features, thus far from the commonly adopted geographical notion of periphery. Inner Peripheries are fragile territories covering rural Europe, which suffer from depopulation, low economic potential, and weak territorial cohesion. However, these territories are extremely important for the provision of goods and services, and the stewardship of natural and semi-natural environments. Such dichotomous condition poses several challenges for planning in the EU context, particularly regarding the implementation of the Rural Development Policy. Therefore, current planning needs to contextualize the policy im…
Come le lucciole. Sperimentazioni artistiche e fermenti culturali tra margini territoriali e disciplinari
2019
La rincorsa al progresso, l'ossessione della crescita economica, l'enfatizzarsi del pensiero dicotomico, hanno portato a delle spaccature, delle 'discrepanze', sia dal punto di vista territoriale che disciplinare. Un processo di artificializzazione e desacralizzazione la cui deriva è rappresentata da una progressiva distruzione dello stesso habitat naturale, dalla rottura dei rapporti co-evolutivi tra uomo e ambiente e da una separazione esponenziale tra soggetto osservante e oggetto osservato, che ha portato a una epistemologia deterministica e tecnofila, con il progressivo abbandono e rifiuto dei linguaggi sensibili nel processo di analisi e produzione del territorio. Facendo ricorso alle…
Gli scenari di sviluppo nelle aree interne e rurali
2020
Le zone interne, spesso coincidenti con lo spazio rurale esprimono dimensioni sociali, politiche ed economiche, espressioni della cultura locale. La capacità di innescare processi che mirano contemporaneamente a creare economia, valore sociale e ambientale attraverso innovative formule organizzative indicano nuovi ruoli e responsabilità sono fondamentali. per la costruzione dello sviluppo L'innovazione deve prestare attenzione alla necessità di una transizione socio-ecologica della società e dell'economia. L'ambiente naturale e' considerato un elemento centrale nelle strategie di sviluppo, fonte insostituibile per la sopravvivenza stessa dell'uomo. Il lavoro schematizza una nuova visione de…
The Peripheri-City of the Inner Areas: Local Development in the Sicani Territory
2018
The inner peripheries are now subject to territorial and social metamorphosis in the sense that they are returning to be attractive places for younger generations through the rediscovery of the potential that they offer in terms of esources and propensity to change. Characterised by an ev-ergrowing number of bottom-up innovation experiences of both traditional crafts and agricultural production, and with abandoned sites in social and cultural places having been recovered, thus allowing the rediscovery the sense of sharing and conviviality typical of these places in the past to be rediscovered, these sites presently need to be discussed, described, and thought of in a new way. The experience…

Inner peripheries: dealing with peripherality and marginality issues within the European policy framework
2020
Abstract : Inner Peripheries is a complex and often misinterpreted concept, as demonstrated by current scientific evidence. Such complexity derives from the intrinsic peripherality and marginality characteristics of the Inner Peripheries. Despite Inner Peripheries suffer from geographical and socio-economic disparities, their environmental, social and economic potentialities are not fully expressed, and thus can be further strengthened by both the EU Cohesion and Rural Development Policies. However, there is currently a lack of knowledge about the linkages between the Inner Peripheries and both Cohesion and Rural Development Policies, which could limit the effectiveness of planning strategi…
Re-Inhabiting Inner Areas Triggering New Regeneration Trajectories: The Case Study of Sicani in Sicily
2022
The Italian debate on the so-called ‘inner areas’ has received a much-needed boost, following the COVID-19 pandemic, which has further highlighted the differences between metropolitan and inner areas. While the progressive depopulation of inner areas is a worrying phenomenon, the limits of incessant urbanisation and the concentration of settlement and infrastructure policies in large conurbations have become evident. Departing from the framework of the B4R-Branding4Resilience research project of national interest and, by continuing in the furrow initiated by the SNAI, but also surpassing it, the aim of the University of Palermo’s research is to define the requirement for a…
