It was from the river Tagus that the Armies that would come to discover the world, making Portugal the richest country in Europe. Some monuments had been constructed to eternalize the Portuguese Discoveries, being the Torre de Belém (Tower of Belém) and Mosteiro de Jerónimos (Monastery of Jerónimos) the most emblematic ones. With the 1755 earthquake, the City of Lisbon was almost totally destroyed. Marquês de Pombal, the Prime-Minister of King D. José, reconstructed the city.

  • Discover Lisbon with Our Guide!
    The 7th Conference of European Survey Research Association welcomes you to the fashionable city of Lisbon! Lisbon, the most westerly capital in mainland Europe, is one of the few cities in the world to offer a unique natural landscape. It’s for sure one of the most impressively located, with a series of hills facing the Tejo estuary, one of the sunniest and probably one of the least expensive cities to discover. Being a city built on hills, from the various belvederes, installed in the highest points, can enjoy breathtaking views. We highlight the castle of S. Jorge, where we reach the cacilheiros in their crossing to the south bank, the 25th April bridge, Rossio, Carmo convent, Bairro Alto, Eduardo VII park, among other points of the city. Alongside the old city, with a very rich heritage, Lisbon is also a modern city that has been renewed in new cultural and leisure proposals.

  • A Statistical Analysis of the Effect of Risk and Scientific Literacy on the Attitude Towards a Waste Co-Incinerator in Italy
    DOI: 10.1515/irsr-2011-0020 IRSR INTERNATIONAL REVIEW of SOCIAL RESEARCH Volume 1, Issue 3, October 2011, 53-72 International Review of Social Research Among ‘Bananas’ and ‘Backyards’: A Statistical Analysis of the Effect of Risk and Scientific Literacy on the Attitude towards a Waste Co-incinerator in Italy Giuseppe TIPALDO• University of Turin Abstract: This paper, based on a social impact research and the possible NIMBY-effect of the Turin, Italy, co-incinerator, deals with risk perception, scientific literacy and their influence on the attitude towards high-tech and controversial industrial plants. The paper argues that plant and infrastructure settlements having a substantial ecological impact represent a highly sophisticated and diverse social phenomenon in which risk plays an important but not unique role. Taking into account some important concomitant variables (such as trust, mass media use, political culture in decision-making processes), it is first of all shown that risk is not a mono-dimensional concept, as assumed by the psychometric tradition, and that two dimensions of the concept are to be found. The collective dimension has a positive monotonic association with a critical attitude towards the co-incinerator, whereas the individual dimension has an unexpectedly negative correlation, which will be explained in further detail. It also demonstrates that scientific literacy has no statistical significance for attitude in our model, confirming the well-known limits of the so called ‘knowledge deficit’ model. Keywords: NIMBY, BANANA, risk, incinerators, urban waste, scientific literacy, knowledge deficit, trust. Introduction Gerbido area of Turin, Piedmont, Italy. Basically, it deals with risk perception This paper is derived from a still-on- and people’s scientific literacy, and on going research program started in 2007 their influence on the attitude towards on the social impact of the co-incinerator high-tech and controversial industrial presently under construction in the plants, an increasingly relevant theme, •e-mail: [email protected].
