History is one of the main aspects that shapes a country’s culture and leaves its traces on the built environment in the form of an architectural heritage. Such a heritage records the existence of humans, their past endeavours and in doing so preserves their cultures and traditions for future generations and contributes to the formation of their identities by acting as an inspiration for their architectural achievements. From this perspective, conservation of architectural heritage becomes important to both current and future architectural endeavours. This book discusses several topics of great importance and relevance to the conservation of worldwide architectural heritage. From historic ...
At a time dominated by the disappearance of Future, as claimed by the French anthropologist Marc Augé, Utopia and Religion seem to be two different ways of giving back an inner horizon to mankind. Therefore this book, on the one hand, considers the importance of utopia as a tool and how it offers an economic and social resource to improve cities’ wealth, future and livability. On the other, it explores the impact of religious and cultural ideals on cities that have recently emerged in this context. Based on numerous observations, the book examines the intellectual legacy of utopian theory and practices across various academic disciplines. It also presents discussions, theories, and case studies addressing a range of issues and topics related to utopia.
«D’allà no me’n vaig emportar res de bo. Només un trauma etern que no me’l treurà ningú, un pòsit negatiu que et queda per sempre.» Una investigació esfereïdora que destapa uns fets ocults i silenciats durant dècades: els abusos sexuals, els maltractaments fÃsics i psÃquics, l’explotació laboral i les prà ctiques mèdiques dubtoses que van patir milers de nens als internats religiosos i de l’Estat durant el franquisme i fins ben entrada la democrà cia. Un exercici de periodisme de primer ordre, que dóna veu a vÃctimes i testimonis i denuncia amb noms i cognoms la suposada superioritat moral al servei de les més baixes passions. Montse Armengou i Ricard Belis, amb lâ...

This book outlines, within the Italian national framework, the current and potential paths oriented towards a new concept of Architectural Heritage, through actions referring to Innovation and Experimentation and Protection and Transformation of the Architectural Heritage. The development of the themes is articulated in two sessions dealing with the aspects related to the analysis and mapping of Architectural Heritage to face the context of the current Climate Crisis and the development of projects and experimentations oriented to the Green and Digital Transition. The evolution of the concept of Heritage, as conceived by the United Nations 2030 Agenda and in the Green Deal and New European B...
La question des villages et quartiers à risque d’abandon est une problématique aujourd’hui commune à des nombreuses régions de la Méditerranée, et est considérée comme un point stratégique dans les nouvelles politiques européennes. La dégradation progressive des zones intérieures est une constante dans les pays caractérisés par le sous-développement économique, favorisant phénomènes d’émigration et de fragmentation du patrimoine culturel. Cela entraîne des problèmes d’architecture et de gestion du territoire. Certains aspects de ce problème se retrouvent également dans différentes zones urbaines. L’objectif principal de ce travail de recherche est donc de créer un espace de discussion qui peut comprendre l’étude, les diagnostics et les restitutions graphiques du patrimoine architectural et du paysage ainsi que les témoignages démo-ethno-anthropologiques, les stratifications typologico-constructives, les matériaux et les technologies des bâtiments historiques.
