Alpine Industrial Landscapes
This Open Access book presents a pioneering research on brownfield redevelopment in mountain regions, and specifically in the European Alps. The origins and causes, the actual conditions as well as the future challenges and potentials of mountain brownfields are investigated from an interdisciplinary yet landscape-centered perspective. Through the reasoned combination of research-by-design methods and case-study analysis, the book explores the infrastructural relevance of these sites for the specific mountain territory, while advancing an innovative structuralist-systemic approach for their physical and functional transformation. The book includes, among others, a first transnational geo-mapping of Alpine brownfields, whose impressive outcomes in terms of site numbers and distribution can only confirm the urgency of this research. About the Author Dr. Marcello Modica, urban planner (Polytechnic University of Milan, 2012), was associate researcher at the Technical University of Munich, Department of Architecture until 2021.
Brownfield Transformation in Fragile Territories
This book presents and critically evaluates the results of a European territorial cooperation project addressing the planning challenge of brownfield transformation in fragile territories. Set against the backdrop of the current scenario of deindustrialisation in the European Alps, the book describes how to read and interpret the spatial condition of industrial brownfields in peripheral mountain areas as complex transformation sites. Through key theoretical references, well-documented experiences and field activities, the book explores and advances an innovative methodology of design-based participatory planning conceived specifically for fragile socioeconomic and environmental contexts. The empirical basis for such a methodological exploration is provided by four pilot sites distributed between Austria, Italy, France and Slovenia, identified in the cooperation project as highly representative and recurring situations. The book includes a comparative review of the work carried out for the pilot sites, as well as the planning outcomes generated, providing a clear and operative reference for scholars, professionals and public officers called to face similar experiences.
Tutti i colori dello zucchero
Ferrara, metà degli anni ’70, l’autunno caldo è ormai finito.Enrico è uno studente della sinistra extraparlamentare che vive con Donata. Cerca un impiego estivo per mantenersi agli studi, ma lavoro e affetti hanno tempi diversi. Viene assunto in un grande zuccherificio proprio quando Donata chiude la loro storia e va ad abitare con altre femministe.Tra nostalgia delle lotte e rifiuto dell’estremismo, Enrico scopre gli operai in carne e ossa e le tante facce del lavoro: le competenze, la fatica, i pericoli. L’anno prima in quella fabbrica è morto uno di loro, dilaniato dagli ingranaggi di una grande pompa. Enrico vuole capirne di più e inizia una difficile battaglia alla ricerca della verità contro le resistenze dei dirigenti, il silenzio dei sindacati e il fatalismo degli altri operai. Un romanzo di formazione alla vigilia del terrorismo.
