The 18Th Century Royal Palace at Caserta, with the Park, the Aqueduct of Vanvitelli, and the San Leucio Complex

WHC Nomination Documentation File name: 549.pdf UNESCO Region EUROPE SITE NAME ("TITLE") The 18th Century Royal Palace at Caserta, with the Park, the Aqueduct of Vanvitelli, and the San Leucio Complex DATE OF INSCRIPTION ("SUBJECT") 6/12/1997 STATE PARTY ("AUTHOR") ITALY CRITERIA ("KEY WORDS") C (i)(ii)(iii)(iv) DECISION OF THE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: 21st Session The Committee decided to inscribe this property on the basis of criteria (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv), considering that the monumental complex at Caserta, whilst cast in the same mould as other 18th century royal establishments, is exceptional for the broad sweep of its design, incorporating not only an imposing palace and park, but also much of the surrounding natural landscape and an ambitious new town laid out according to the urban planning precepts of its time. The industrial complex of the Belvedere, designed to produce silk, is also of outstanding interest because of the idealistic principles that underlay its original conception and management. BRIEF DESCRIPTION: The monumental complex at Caserta, created by Carlo Borbone in the mid 18th century to rival Versailles and Madrid, is exceptional for the way in which it brings together a sumptuous palace and its park and gardens, as well as natural woodland, hunting lodges, and an industrial establishment for the production of silk. It is an eloquent expression of the Enlightenment in material form, integrated into, rather than imposed upon, its natural landscape. 1.b. State, province or region: Italy, Campania, Provinces of Caserta and Benevento 1.d Exact location: Long. 14°02' E - Lat. 41°04' N f:/inhouse/DocCen/doc-archive.doc .

CITTÀ DI CAIAZZO - (Provincia Di Caserta) - Statuto Comunale - Modifiche
BOLLETTINO UFFICIALE DELLA REGIONE CAMPANIA - N. 19 DEL 24 APRILE 2006 STATUTI - MODIFICHE CITTÀ DI CAIAZZO - (Provincia di Caserta) - Statuto comunale - Modifiche. Le modifiche e le integrazioni, rispetto al precedente testo, vengono riportate in grassetto sottolineato Cenni storici Kahata, Kaiata, Kaiatia, Caiatia, Caiazzo. Città o Comune di Caiazzo? L’uso che l’Ente locale fa ancora del nome di «Città» e del noto antichissimo stemma indurrebbe a propendere per la prima tesi, di fronte alla carenza della legge cui sarebbe toccato il com- pito di dare una nuova, organica disciplina alla materia araldica concernente i Comuni, le Province e gli Enti morali, come previsto dalla XIV disposizione transitoria della Costituzione Italiana. Si tratta naturalmente di una attribuzione puramente onorifica e morale, che oggi non ha alcuna conse- guenza pratica, ma che sottolinea però la funzione che sempre la Città ha conservato come entità distinta dalla campagna circostante, anche nell’epoca in cui, scomparsi i «Municipia» (Caiatia era tale) per la crisi della socie- tà antica, sopravvisse la «Civitas» come complesso urbano vivo e vitale in cui si istituì la sede Vescovile. Città, quindi, che, quanto meno nel passato, ha convenientemente provveduto ad ogni pubblico servizio e che ascrive a suo merito personaggi, vicende ed emergenze architettoniche che, a dispetto dell’offesa e dell’indifferen- za del presente, restano insigni per ricordi. «Perantiquum oppidum» la definirono gli scrittori antichi. Ma antica di quanto? Impossibile da definire. Non sono certamente gli avanzi di mura megalitico-poligonali ad indicarne l’antichità, giacché esse stanno ad attestare solamente una fase di gran lunga più recente rispetto alla sua origine: addirittura di età romana, allor- quando, all’inizio del III sec.

Peace in Palestine Via the World Heritage Convention
. Michael K. Madison II. Peace in Palestine ..........through World Heritage Promoting Peace via Global Conventions - 1 - Peace in Palestine via the World Heritage Convention Promoting Peace via Global Conventions The Global Problem "Throughout history, religious differences have divided men and women from their neighbors and have served as justification for some of humankind's bloodiest conflicts. In the modern world, it has become clear that people of all religions must bridge these differences and work together, to ensure our survival and realize the vision of peace that all faiths share." -- H.R.H. Prince El-Hassan bin Talal, Jordan Moderator, WCRP Governing Board Tolerance, Economic Growth and Fear Global peace and harmony is not possible without religious tolerance. Unfortunately, there is no instant microwavable solution. We can’t just add water and/or milk to the current situation and hope that the world will ameliorate itself overnight. No. The world needs help. The problem is not the outliers; it is larger groups of people that need to change. Outliers will always be present. The world needs religious-minded policymakers to take giant steps that lead to peace, but in a mutually beneficial way. Indeed, peace for peace’s sake is not always enough incentive to all parties involved. Therefore, if the conflict cannot be resolved by tolerance, then let it be resolved by greed as we find a way to help the countries involved to achieve a better economic position. If the conflict cannot be resolved by boosting the corresponding economies, then let it be resolved by fear as we convince the nations involved that one false move means it will be - 2 - their country against the rest of the world and not just their “enemy of the day”.
