Urban Resilience: A New Way to Live the Urban Space
2022
Since the dawn of the urban age, the issues and values of the urban settlement have varied considerably through the centuries, as well as the theory of ideal and perfect urban form, but the importance of urban spatial structure has never been erased. Nowadays, the city is still in the middle of our civilisation, but the relationships between nested socio-ecological systems are more complex because the human-environment interactions are not bidirectional. Last month news told us that the new coronavirus has not been the first case of a virus that skips the species, reaching up to man, but unlike other recent viruses it had been–and it still is–the first that after centuries has caused signif…
Il ruolo dello spazio pubblico nelle trasformazioni urbane
2018
In recent decades, important urban regeneration processes are changing the appearance of cities. The modern city, characterized by the spaces of industrial production, now renews its disused areas by introducing fast mobility systems, communication networks and mixed-use social spaces. It is a phenomenon in progress that renews the image of the contemporary city and allows its inhabitants to experiment with new styles of life.

Piazzetta Mediterraneo, Palermo
2020
Nello scenario post-crisi attuale, che ha visto la sensibile riduzione delle risorse pubbliche per i progetti di rigenerazione urbana, in molte realtà urbane italiane e non solo, stiamo assistendo alla crescita di una serie di pratiche urbane micro-spaziali che stanno ridisegnando gli spazi urbani. In questo quadro generale, particolarmente significative risultano le esperienze di rigenerazione avviate a Palermo in cui lo spazio pubblico urbano risulta essere l’esito di pratiche informali avviate dagli abitanti e, successivamente, “riconosciute” dalle politiche urbane ufficiali dell’Amministrazione comunale. In particolare, il contributo presenta l’esperienza di Piazzetta del Mediterraneo, …
Retorica dello spazio: il caso della street art
2014
La street art è un fenomeno capillare che si dispiega negli spazi urbani con stili e forme diverse. L’intervento prende in esame alcune operazioni artistiche analizzando le strategie retoriche utilizzate. Ricorrendo a diversi regimi di visibilità e utilizzando l’apostrofe, l’iperbole o ancora il camouflage gli artisti creano narrazioni imprevedibili e sollecitano continuamente l’attenzione del fruitore. Gli interventi di street art possono così considerarsi come campi di manovra che instaurano nello spazio urbano conflitti, sfide o complicità con i fruitori e in tal senso si rivela opportuno soffermarsi sui casi di riscrittura o di cancellazione delle opere.
Desafíos para el mantenimiento de una esfera pública democrática en la sociedad digital
2023
El presente trabajo se propone analizar cómo el creciente protagonismo de las redes sociales en el debate público puede implicar –de forma contraintiutiva- serios riesgos para la construcción y el mantenimiento de una esfera pública democrática. Para ello, en primer lugar, se identificarán las que hasta ahora han sido consideradas como características esenciales de una esfera pública democrática, exponiendo cómo dichas características han sido reconocidas y protegidas en los ordenamientos jurídicos –tomando como referencia el ordenamiento jurídico español. Enumeradas estas características, el trabajo analiza cómo la dinámica de las redes sociales puede poner en jaque cada una de ellas. Pres…
Children's participatory budgets as a civic learning methodology. An exploratory study on the Spanish experience.
2021
International audience; The present research work aims to analyze, in an exploratory way, the main characteristics of child participatory budgets during 2019 in eight Spanish municipalities. The experiences of child budgeting are not well institutionalized. In general terms, when a participatory process is finished, all informational traces usually disappear. This study uses the comparative methodology with a theoretical framework based on Hart’s participation ladder and democratic civic participation. Three hypotheses have been generated and, among the main preliminary conclusions, it is highlighted that in all the cases analyzed the educational and civic training component prevails, in wh…
Comunità e spazio pubblico. Come generare la dimensione spaziale della democrazia
2021
The contribution addresses the issue of the spatial dimension of democracy in the neo-cosmopolitan city, also as an expression of the communities living in it. By highlighting the inequalities still present, which translate into marginality of communities and urban spaces, the contribution claims the importance of public space in the relations between community and city and proposes operational methods through project examples in the city of Palermo.
Wymiar społeczny w projektowaniu zrównoważonego rozwoju miasta
2020
Artykuł zawiera rozważania na temat związku społecznie zrównoważonego rozwoju miasta i projektowania urbanistycznego. Wyrażając przekonanie, że równowaga społeczna jest jednym z podstawowych elementów zrównoważonego rozwoju miasta, autor zaznacza jednocześnie, że projektowanie urbanistyczne ukierunkowane na realizację celów zrównoważonego rozwoju może nie uzyskać akceptacji społecznej. W artykule wskazano na różne podejścia do zdefiniowania społecznie zrównoważonego rozwoju obszarów miejskich. Starano się również określić, które elementy projektowania urbanistycznego mają szczególne znaczenie dla jego realizacji, zwracając uwagę na przestrzenną formę miasta i kwestię dostępności przestrzeni…
THE CONCEPT OF COMPETENCE IN THE CONTEXT OF EDUCATION REFORM IN LATVIA
2019
The word competence is a key concept of ongoing education reform in Latvia - the ESF project “Competency approach in the curriculum” (hereafter: Project). The implementation of the idea of competence-based curriculum is related to significant changes in the structure of school and pre-school curriculum, the system of evaluation of learning outcomes, teacher education etc., which are widely clarified and discussed in expert groups and public space. Participating as experts in the development of a Project, the authors of the article find that the Latvian educational space lacks a common understanding of the meaning of the concept competence. Often the pedagogical terminology used by educators…
