La cultura ci salverà? Processi di touristification a base culturale nel centro storico di Palermo

2023

Negli ultimi tre decenni la cultura ha avuto un ruolo chiave nella costruzione delle politiche urbane, divenendo uno strumento decisivo nella definizione delle strategie di sviluppo economico e nell’accesso alla competizione globale che caratterizzano l’attuale regime di neoliberismo urbano (Miles e Paddison 2005). Anche nel sud Europa la cosiddetta rigenerazione a base culturale ha rappresentato e continua ancora oggi a rappresentare una vera e propria ortodossia urbana, che trova nel turismo tanto una ragione di esistenza quanto un campo di attuazione. In particolare, negli ultimi anni i centri storici di molte città sudeuropee sono stati oggetto di trasformazioni profonde in cui pratiche…

Within this framework Palermo and its historic center are no exception. The epicenter of these processes is represented here by the Kalsa district which since the early 2000s has been placed at the center of a precise strategy of culturally-based renewal called to drive the city's tourist renaissance (Vinci 2008). The culmination of this path came in 2018 when Palermo was named the Italian capital of culture and chosen as the venue for Manifesta one of the most prestigious traveling biennales of contemporary art. However the exponential increase in tourist arrivals in the last three years came to a halt with the outbreak of the pandemic which showed with unprecedented evidence the contradictions of the development strategies pursued in the historic center and the marks they leave on the territories. While this sudden interruption seems to offer an opportunity to radically rethink urban and cultural policies and find new curbs to the conditions of overtourism in which the historic centers of South European cities and beyond find themselves it could also prove to be an accelerator of the dynamics of commodification of these spaces representing the revival of tourism an easy escape route in times of crisis. The objective of this contribution is to critically explore the urban and social transformations that have crossed the Kalsa district of Palermo from the 2000s to the present using qualitative and quantitative techniques (analysis of statistical data in-depth interviews critical discourse analysis ...) with particular reference to the role that culture has played in these processes. While it is impossible to prefigure post-pandemic scenarios we will examine documents and discourses that trace possible development directions for South European cities and their historic centers.Settore ICAR/21 - UrbanisticaSettore M-GGR/01 - Geografia

La désindustrialisation comme vecteur de vulnérabilité territoriale

2019

La désindustrialisation et les fermetures de sites de production industrielle sont principalement analysés par le biais des mutations des appareils productifs, ou par leurs effets sur les trajectoires individuelles des travailleur·se·s de l’industrie. Nous proposons dans cet article de questionner ces phénomènes en tant que facteur de vulnérabilité des populations et des territoires pris dans leur ensemble.En nous centrant sur la Picardie, qui fut l’une des régions les plus industrielles de France, nous chercherons à caractériser la désindustrialisation des espaces qui la compose en mobilisant des données issues de différentes sources. Nous mettrons ensuite ces indices de la désindustrialis…

Introduction. The territorial dimensions of vulnerabilities

2019

Recouvrant de très nombreuses dimensions, qu’elles soient sanitaires, démographiques, économiques, géographiques, politiques, psychologiques, philosophiques ou encore sociologiques, la vulnérabilité est devenue l’objet de très nombreuses recherches pluri et inter-disciplinaires à l’échelle internationale (Thomas, 2008). Dans une société moderne souvent considérée comme une « société du risque » (Beck, 2001), la vulnérabilité touche des individus ou des groupes sociaux soumis à un contexte ext...

Branding4Resilience: Explorative and Collaborative Approaches for Inner Territories

2022

This article analyzes inner and marginal territories in four Italian peripheral contexts by first discussing some of the results and future steps of the “B4R Branding4Resilience” research project, funded by the Italian Ministry of Research from 2020 to 2023. The overall research is based on three phases: (1) the exploration phase to analyze socio-economic data and territorial dynamics; (2) the co-design phase involving local actors to develop ideas for a selected pilot case; (3) the co-visioning phase where a future transformative perspective for the whole area was shared with the institutions. The article focuses on phase 1 and presents some first results achieved by the application of a m…

I modelli urbani della ricostruzione post-sismica degli anni ‘60 a confronto con la contrazione demografica dei territori interni della Sicilia. Caso…

2021

Il contributo prende in esame gli esiti prodotti a lunga distanza dai modelli urbanistici adottati in Italia nel secondo dopoguerra, caratterizzati da dinamiche espansive e dotazioni di servizi pubblici dimensionati in base agli standard. Gli effetti della contrazione demografia su tali modelli insediativi, che dispiegano oggi una serie di problematiche che conducono alla necessità di una riorganizzazione spaziale, vengono osservati su un campione particolarmente significativo al riguardo rappresentato dalle città ricostruite ex-novo nel secondo Novecento a seguito di movimenti tellurici. Il caso in esame riguarda il terremoto della Valle del Belice del 1968 e descrive come le nuove città, …

Pour une approche cognitive et multiscalaire des conflits environnementaux

2011

Starting with artificial light as new object damage and emerging environmental problem, this paper intends to develop a general reflection showing the importance of a greater consideration of cognitive dimensions of the damage and risk analysis in environmental conflicting processes. We show how the cost-benefit analysis after the neoclassical theory of production, often used in the search for Pareto-optimal state and in the policies of monetary compensation to resolve environmental conflicts can - indeed must - be strongly challenged. Also, with this reasoning, we oppose an analysis in terms of cognitive interactions that groups develop around environmental goods and items of damage, thus …

Five insights from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019

2020

The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019 provides a rules-based synthesis of the available evidence on levels and trends in health outcomes, a diverse set of risk factors, and health system responses. GBD 2019 covered 204 countries and territories, as well as first administrative level disaggregations for 22 countries, from 1990 to 2019. Because GBD is highly standardised and comprehensive, spanning both fatal and non-fatal outcomes, and uses a mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive list of hierarchical disease and injury causes, the study provides a powerful basis for detailed and broad insights on global health trends and emerging challenges. GBD …

Scientific and methodical foundations of heat saving of rural territories on the basis of use of local biomass

2018

W ostatnich latach gaz ziemny na Ukrainie, a w szczególności w regionie połtawskim,wykorzystywany jest najczęściej do ogrzewania prywatnych domów. Niestety co roku państwo podnosi cenę gazu. Koszty ogrzewania stają się dla mieszkańców wsi dużym obciążeniem. Wcześniej na wsi tradycyjnie budowano domy o dużej powierzchni. Dlatego obecnie wspólnoty terytorialne szukają alternatywnych sposobów ogrzewania. W celu oszczędzania ciepła ważnymi dla nich stają się zagadnienia związane z izolacją budynków mieszkalnych, zakładów produkcyjnych. Głównym celem artykułu jest analiza możliwości wykorzystania biomasy jako materiału termoizolacyjnego oraz źródła energii alternatywnej. Przedstawiono doświadcze…
