Global threats in the Anthropocene: from COVID-19 to the future
2021
The COVID-19 pandemic offers food for thought and an opportunity for humanities and science scholars who research our global condition to collaborate. The 21st century society is facing an unprecedented challenge right now: what can we learn from this challenge? Will everything really return to what we used to define as ‘normal’ at the end of the emergency? Probably not. Structural changes from political, economic, social, and environmental perspectives are already occuring, and impacting the fields of health, education, commerce, governance and travel. Concepts of social space are being redefined and rethought at various scales. Our society, unprepared for a global health emergency of this…

Living on Mount Etna Between Risk, Beauty and Need: A Field Survey on Villages Struck by 2018 Earthquake
2023
Sicily’s uneven geological structure is positioned within a system of tectonic plates. Its (very) active volcano, Mount Etna, has always made it prone to disasters. Nevertheless on the flanks of Etna there are many urbanized areas and the population living on the slopes of Etna has increased a lot in the last century, because there is an ancient and intimate relationship between the land and the people who live and work on the land. In this chapter I will try to investigate possible changes in the perception of the risks associated with the volcano by the resident population by conducting survey in the villages of Fleri, Pisano, Pennisi and Santa Maria la Stella. This study is part of a gro…

Temporary shop ed economia resiliente
2016
Cities are composed of different systems each one with its own life cycle. Retail systems contribute to cities’ sustainability. In Italy, during the last two decades, the retail system has suffered the threat of large-Scale retail trade and e-commerce. The consumer’s behaviour has changed during these years. In order to overcome the crisis that has made the historical center less interesting from a retailing and commercial point of view, in this paper we analyze crisis response strategies and in particular the proposal of temporary shops.
Innovazione e resilienza nella città intelligente. Pratiche fiorentine al tempo della pandemia
2021
La pandemia ha dato l’opportunità ad alcune città di dimostrare il grado di competitività raggiunto e di divenire un modello di riferimento. In questi contesti non ha prevalso l’immobilismo o la sterile attesa, ma una fervente attività propositiva e creativa. Il presente contributo si propone di approfondire solo una delle esperienze di creatività e di azione all’interno di una città certamente smart, Firenze. Il caso della Galleria degli Uffizi dimostra la capacità dei contesti ad elevato livello tecnologico e di competenze di superare con brillantezza le situazioni critiche che, nella loro diversificata configurazione, possono presentarsi. The pandemic has given some cities the opportunit…
