Rimettere in valore gli spazi pubblici del territorio agrigentino

2015

The contemporary city poses a question about regeneration which increasingly finds its answer within the open spaces, where values and potential are recognized not only in ecological and environmental terms but also in terms of agricultural production. However these areas may have consequences on global sustainability and local urban-welfare, provoking identification processes with the places and regenerating the local identities as the only guarantee of survival in a harmonic territory. The research hypothesis is that the coastal areas and peri-urban spaces could contribute substantially to society and sustainable urban development as well as having an impact on social, physical, environme…

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…

Italiani in Perú fra Otto e Novecento: marinai, commercianti, imprenditori di origine ligure

2015

Numericamente limitata, come del resto negli altri paesi della costa del Pacifico, l’immigrazione che dalla penisola italiana si dirige verso il Perú tra la metà dell’800 e l’inizio del ‘900 presenta alcuni tratti del tutto peculiari. Si tratta nella stragrande maggioranza di soggetti provenienti dalla Liguria, gente di mare che si muove non tanto sotto la spinta di specifici e contingenti fattori di espulsione e di attrazione, quanto piuttosto per quella “cultura della mobilità”, sia geografica che sociale, strettamente connaturata alle loro attività originarie di naviganti e commercianti. E in effetti il commercio, esercitato anche in imprese di modeste o modestissime dimensioni, costitui…

Early evolutionary colocalization of the nuclear ribosomal 5S and 45S gene families in seed plants: evidence from the living fossil gymnosperm Ginkgo…

2012

In seed plants, the colocalization of the 5S loci within the intergenic spacer (IGS) of the nuclear 45S tandem units is restricted to the phylogenetically derived Asteraceae family. However, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) colocalization of both multigene families has also been observed in other unrelated seed plant lineages. Previous work has identified colocalization of 45S and 5S loci in Ginkgo biloba using FISH, but these observations have not been confirmed recently by sequencing a 1.8 kb IGS. In this work, we report the presence of the 45S–5S linkage in G. biloba, suggesting that in seed plants the molecular events leading to the restructuring of the ribosomal loci are much o…

Urbacost: verso un riequilibrio territoriale tra costa ed aree interne nella Sicilia centrale

2009

il contributo mette in evidenza l'importanza del riequilibrio del rapporto di centralità urbana e territoriale tra la pianificazione delle aree interne e quelle costiere nel quadro della cooperazione tra le isttuzioni e le forze imprenditoriali agenti in territori deboli.

I paesaggi del lavoro

2013

Il patrimonio culturale, le risorse della natura, la potenza dei paesaggi: gli stessi attrattori che hanno richiamato i viaggiatori del Grand Tour, modificati da usi sempre più consapevoli e resi più accessibili logisticamente e culturalmente, sono gli assi portanti dell’attrattività turistica del contesto territoriale della punta occiddentale della Scilia, caso di studio preso in esame dalla ricerca PRIN ITATOUR. Gli elementi del paesaggio e del patrimonio culturale della punta occidentale siciliana raggiungono vette di eccellenza in molti settori; tuttavia essi dovrebbero essere colti, più che nella loro individualità, come componenti di un sistema integrato di relazioni funzionali e cult…

Predicting species richness of wood-inhabiting fungi, epiphytic bryophytes and lichens based on stand structure and indicator species

2015

Maailmanlaajuinen monimuotoisuuden vähentyminen on ollut suuri huolenaihe jo useiden vuosikymmenten ajan. Lauhkeat lehtimetsät ovat yksi eniten ihmisen vaikutuksesta kärsineistä biomeista ja eteenkin vanhat, luonnontilaiset metsät ovat vähentyneet huolestuttavasti. Ilmaston ja maisemallisten tekijöiden lisäksi metsän historia, häiriödynamiikka, metsätalous ja ekologinen jatkuvuus vaikuttavat metsän rakenteelliseen monimuotoisuuteen ja näin ollen myös lajirunsauteen. Monet lajiryhmät ovat kuitenkin huonosti tunnettuja ja vaikeasti havaittavissa, eikä lopullisia syitä lajin häviämiseen alueelta pystytä varmasti sanomaan. Tutkimukseni tarkoitus oli selvittää, mitkä elementit metsän rakenteessa…

De participació local. Una proposta metodològica desde la investigació-acció-participativa

2018

Citizen participation is an increasingly prevalent term in our society. In the process of deployment in the municipal area, progressively local corporations make efforts to innovate practices and develop experiences of citizen participation in defining policies and public affairs, and allocating budgets. While innovation has been advanced with regard to the tools and mechanisms to be used to promote participation, many of the initiatives and experiences have focused more on the implementation of the vote than in the different social processes inherent in the participation. Moreover, we are faced with the absence of a methodological guide that allows approaching a project or strategic plan o…

Idea samorządności w Polsce - próba aksjologicznej systematyzacji w ujęciu politologicznym

2014

Na przestrzeni dwóch dekad funkcjonowania samorządności w Polsce nastąpiły przeobrażenia w katalogu podstawowych wartoœci samorządu terytorialnego. W pierwszych dziesięciu latach, gdy budowano fundamenty samorządności w Polsce, najważniejsze były podstawowe, ustrojowe wartości, tj. wolność, równość czy powszechność. W drugim natomiast ustąpiły one miejsca wartościom fundamentalnym dla rozwoju samorządu terytorialnego takim, jak: więzi lokalne, poczucie wspólnoty, kapitał społeczny, inkluzja polityczna, czy wreszcie społeczeństwo obywatelskie. Równolegle następowały zmiany w wymaganiach stawianych pracownikom samorządowym. Pojawiły się i ulegały uściśleniu, akty prawne rangi ustawowej określ…
