Vegetation series as a marker of interactions between rural settlements and landscape: new insights from the archaeological record in Western Sicily
2020
[EN] Plant communities are complex and dynamic elements of the landscape, intertwined with both natural factors and human activities. Vegetation series reflect the environmental characteristics of the landscape, but also the anthropic impact, one of the exogenous forces that most profoundly affects the landscape formation process. This paper aims to investigate the interactions between long-term human settlement catchment areas and vegetation series. The case study area of the Sicani Mountains (Central-Western Sicily) proved to be an ideal place to perform GIS-based spatial analysis in order to compare a data set of rural archaeological sites and land units created through the mapping of ve…
TERRITORI TRASVERSALI. Centri minori rurali e industriali in Sicilia e Spagna
2021
The orographic and natural conditions, together with small towns’ cultural, heritage and industrial conditions, have become the landscape of relationships between spaces where silence, slowing down and acceleration define the urban and human imaginary of these transversal territories. Although very different from each other in terms of topographical location, traditions and cultural and linguistic specificities, it is possible to find constants of criticality and potential. This essay illustrates new read¬ings and settles meanings to initiate a collaborative work in Sicily and Spain along the Trasversale Sicula and in the mining landscape of the Minas de La Reunión in the province of Sevill…
International distance learning design experiences. Above the clouds, a project for a temporary event in the Bolognetta valley

Territori sensibili. La Trasversale sicula e la rete dei Centri minori rurali in Sicilia
2021
La ricerca sui processi di spopolamento e di abbandono delle piccole città è essenziale per agire sulla situazione attuale e sulle sue prospettive proponendo nuovi scenari, sperimentando metodologie d'azione, fornendo formazione a professionisti, e lancio di opportunità di investimento. In questi luoghi, il paesaggio si intreccia con il mito, alimentando le connessioni tra storia antica e storia recente, da un lato, e sostenendo l'ipotesi di una trasformazione anche minima del paesaggio attraverso variazioni e interpretazioni di ciò che esiste, dall'altro. La riprogettazione del territorio della Trasversale Sicula coniuga situazioni materiali e immateriali e immaginari che trovano nella ret…
Produire, diffuser et transmettre des savoirs portant sur la pauvreté et l’intervention sociale en milieu rural
2018
Tout en reprenant les enseignements de travaux de recherche conduits en France au sujet de la pauvreté et de l’intervention sociale en milieu agricole et rural, ce texte montre les conditions d’élaboration de savoirs s’appuyant sur des connaissances issues des sciences humaines et sociales et sur des observations conduites par et avec des professionnels de l’action sociale. Au-delà du repérage de situations qui caractérisent les espaces ruraux, il souligne l’apport de différentes méthodes d’investigation pour affiner le regard sur les conditions de vie des plus pauvres, les capacités d’adaptation dont ils disposent et les dispositifs qui leur sont destinés.
Digital Influencers, Food and Tourism—A New Model of Open Innovation for Businesses in the Ho.Re.Ca. Sector
2022
The choice of influencer marketing as an endorser for promoting products and services is becoming a more and more effective communication strategy of open innovation. Their use of social media platforms, such as Instagram, allows them to be reached by millions of followers all over the world.

This study analyses Chiara Ferragni…
A idealização dose espaços rurais no ensino médio. Um estudo de representações sociais
2021
Resumen La teoría de las representaciones sociales contribuye a conocer los discursos que influyen en la vida de las personas y cómo los sujetos reproducen esos conocimientos para interpretar el mundo. El conocimiento que nos interesa en esta investigación es la cosmovisión que los estudiantes de 3.° de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO) y de 2.° de bachillerato de la provincia de Valencia (España) tienen acerca de los espacios rurales. Dicha cosmovisión proviene de diferentes fuentes y contextos de información, por lo que la aplicación de las representaciones sociales al campo de la didáctica de la geografía es pertinente en este estudio. En concreto, el enfoque fenomenológico de la Ge…
El món de la pilota i la ruralitat
2016
La pilota valenciana és considerada un tret cultural característic del poble valencià, un signe d’identitat que, internament, concita una rara i gojosa unanimitat com a element cultural propi i distintiu. Sovint s’ha presentat com una conseqüència de la ruralitat que explicaría la seua pervivència plurisecular. Per què s’associa el joc de la pilota al món rural? Per què la pilota concita una rara unanimitat? Aquest article tracta de respondre aqueixes qüestions, partint d’una suposició inicial: l’adscripció de la pilota i dels pilotaris, al món rural és una interpretació equívoca.
Town, industry and city
1995
Une première partie regroupera quelques réflexions conceptuelles et méthodologiques sur les économies d'agglomération et le phénomène d'agglomération. On y trouvera des précisions sur les sources, la nature et le classement des économies d'agglomération et des forces qui peuvent les contrarier, ainsi que sur la dynamique propre du phénomène d'agglomération. Dans une deuxième partie, nous examinerons plus précisément l'intérêt et les limites de l'assimilation entre l'agglomération de la production et la ville, en analysant comment la dimension productive est liée aux autres dimensions de la ville, notamment la dimension sociale. Nous chercherons en particulier quelles représentations de la v…
Définir la ville
1996
The city can hardly be grasped by a simple definition. Most of the available definitions are statistical or descriptive and they fail to represent the complex, multidimensional and changing nature of the urban phenomenon. The definition proposed in this paper is related to economic theory of city formation and is based on the agglomeration process and the diversity of agents and activities.
