Towards a New European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP): What Benefits of the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreements (DCFTAs) for Shared Prosperity a…
2016
This article examines the problem of the ENP countries’ integration with the EU market from two perspectives: the macroeconomic situation as an integral component of the overall transformation process and the integration with the EU markets, and the political economy of the regional integration perspectives of these countries. This methodological approach serves as a tool for integrating a number of main goals related to the EU’s soft power that require the development and support of civil society in the neighbouring states. This contribution aims to offer insight in the implementation of the regional arrangements, taking into consideration new political and economic realities in the Eurasi…
Le differenze territoriali
2019
Il testo analizza i dati sulla povertà educativa a Palermo, suddividendoli per Circoscrizione e, quando possibile, per quartiere. Ne esce fuori un quadro complesso e variegato, che mostra come le differenze territoriali siano profondamente marcate. Il testo utilizza i dati rilevati tramite un questionario organizzato da un gruppo di ricerca che comprende l'autore; inoltre, al testo sono allegate diverse mappe tematiche che esemplificano visivamente le differenze territoriali. The text analyses the data on educational poverty in Palermo, subdividing them by Circoscrizioni and, when possible, by neighbourhood. The result is a complex and varied picture that shows how the territorial differenc…
THE EXPECTED DEMOGRAPHIC INFLUENCES ON THE PROVISION OF EDUCATION SERVICES IN THE NEIGHBOURHOODS OF RIGA
2020
This paper discusses the spatial extent of population change and provides new insights into the relationships between demographic characteristics and the provision of education services in urban neighbourhoods of Riga. Thus, our empirical evidence confirms that the provision of social infrastructure is fundamentally dependent on the nature of demographic processes. The aim of this paper is twofold: to explore the spatial extent of changes in the number of pre-school and school-aged children in Riga, and to assess how the demographic change of particular age cohorts are associated with the provision of educational establishments at the neighbourhood level. Using available statistics and base…

Palermo, quartieri e periferie: “azioni guida” nel palinsesto urbano
2012
The method of choice for the local coordination work led by the Palermo unit interpreted the common requests for the National PRIN on “the upgrading and rehabilitation of the public housing sector”, focusing its attention on the multiple scenarios and using the architectural project as a powerful “working tool”. From the project examination on the specific cases and the theories put forward by the group of designers – considering the different design approaches – it seems possible to extrapolate some recurring actions – on the basis of the results achieved – which might be considered as a reference structure for the definition of those “guidelines” representing the final target of the resea…
La città di Alphabet. Architettura per prosumers.
2021
Attraverso alcuni aspetti salienti dell’ideazione, della produzione e dell’opposizione al progetto del Toronto Quayside di Sidewalk labs, l’articolo discute l’influenza delle infrastrutture digitali per l’informazione sul progetto della casa e del quartiere. L’ampliamento delle attività svolte da remoto nello spazio domestico, enfatizzato dal quotidiano della pandemia da Covid 19, costituisce per gli oligopolisti planetari degli urban data come Alphabet un utile volano pubblicitario e un acceleratore. La fusione dei nuovi vessilli della tecnoemancipazione e della sostenibilità in ipotesi sperimentali che mirano a costruirsi sia per intero che per parti realizza un nuovo orizzonte in cui lo …
Ambiti identitari di quartiere per la città del futuro
2013
How should we conceive a future city that is capable of avoiding the mistakes of the present? In order to redraw our urban spaces we have been looking for neighbourhood identity areas in Palermo, so that they can link the past to the future, development to conservation. The neighbourhood becomes the common ground between the private sphere (the house) and the public sphere (the city), and allows the citizens to embrace the active sphere of politics. This paper aims at identifying a way to overcome the administrative scheme which has so far been used: neighbourhoods urge citizens from the 21th century to rediscover society, conceived as the connecting ground between each other.
Green small technology for neighbourhood regeneration: a southern case-study.
2012
I rifiuti possono trasformarsi da problema ad opportunità se si transita da un’amministrazione del consumo e dello spreco ad una gestione che si proponga l’ottimizzazione nell’uso delle risorse e la valorizzazione degli scarti. Il trattamento della frazione organica dei rifiuti per la produzione di biogas, calore di processo e compost di qualità può rappresentarne un aspetto di forte rilievo. La scala di quartiere, indicata nel lavoro di ricerca che viene presentato, può consentire, per certi versi, la scomposizione della complessa realtà metropolitana e la declinazione efficiente del paradigma del principio di prossimità, dell’autosostentamento e del coinvolgimento delle comunità locali pe…
Adopt a Neighborhood: When Planners Meet Schoolchildren
2015
Throughout this paper we will present a project that revolves around the idea of the neighbourhood as an ‘identity container’ and aims at bridging the gap between traditional planning programmes and the new challenges linked both to the crisis of public spaces and to participatory planning. During the last two years, our University has been working in cooperation with the Municipality of Palermo and many primary and secondary schools of the city on a project called ‘La scuola adotta il quartiere’ (‘Schools Adopt Neighbourhoods’). Within the project, planning students from the University guided the schoolchildren (8- to 13-years old) to the discovery of their neighbourhood and its community.…
“Serpentone Reload” an Experience of Citizens Involvement in Regeneration of Peripheral Urban Spaces
2015
Suburbs are often very contradictory places. Despite great part of urban population live there, these parts of cities are mostly considered as degradation places. The topic of suburbs regeneration is relevant today. Nevertheless, often expensive interventions implemented by local authorities fail to regenerate their public spaces. This paper presents the experience of “Serpentone reload”, a workshop based on participatory reactivation of abandoned or underused spaces and buildings in “Cocuzzo/Serpentone” neighbourhood in Potenza (Basilicata, Italy). The workshop particularly focused on the reuse of the “Ship”, an underground building, completed in 2010, never used, because it has been perce…
