1 SnowHydro 2020 International Conference on Snow Hydrology Challenges in Mountain Areas 28th – 31st January 2020, Bolzano/Bozen, Italy Responsible organizers Claudia Notarnicola – EURAC Research (Italy) – Scientific coordinator Giacomo Bertoldi – EURAC Research (Italy) – Scientific advisor María José Polo – University of Cordóba (Spain) – Scientific advisor Lucas Menzel – University of Heidelberg (Germany) – Scientific advisor Paola Winkler - EURAC Research (Italy) – Project manager Venue EURAC, lecture room “Auditorium”. 2 Welcome to the SnowHydro Conference in Bolzano/Bozen 2020 Snow is a dynamically changing water resource that plays an important role in the hydrological cycle in mountainous areas. Snow cover contributes to regulate the Earth surface temperature, and once it melts, the water helps fill rivers and reservoirs in many regions of the world. In terms of spatial extent, seasonal snow cover is the largest single component of the cryosphere and has a mean winter maximum areal extent of 47 million square kilometers, about 98% of which is located in the Northern Hemisphere. While on large scale snow cover changes affect the energy exchange between Earth’s surface and the atmosphere and are, thus, useful indicators of climatic variation, on a smaller scale, variations in snow cover can affect regional weather patterns. Therefore, snow cover is an important climate change variable because of its influence on energy and moisture budgets. The strong consequences of changes in snow amount on Earth's environment and population, have led scientists to develop ways for continuously measuring and monitoring snow and its properties. The traditional snow observations consist of in situ measurements during periodic field campaigns at fixed sites or through automatic nivological stations network recording snow parameters and often are coupled to weather stations. -

2017 ACTA UNIVERSITATIS CAROLINAE PAG. 11–34 STUDIA TERRITORIALIA 2 TRANSFORMING A CONTROVERSIAL HERITAGE: THE CASE OF THE FASCIST VICTORY MONUMENT IN SOUTH TYROL ANDREA CARLÀ EURAC RESEARCH – INSTITUTE FOR MINORITY RIGHTS JOHANNA MITTERHOFER EURAC RESEARCH – INSTITUTE FOR MINORITY RIGHTS Abstract Using a Fascist monument in South Tyrol, Northern Italy as a case study, this paper investigates the role of monuments in managing and negotiating interpretations of the past in culturally het- erogeneous societies. It explores approaches to overcoming the exclusionary potential of cultural heritage, reframing it in more inclusive, pluralist terms. It provides an in-depth analysis of a dialog- ical, pluralistic approach to heritage, which allows divergent, even contrary, interpretations of the past to coexist. Thus, the paper sheds light on how monuments (re)construct and contest memory and history. It provides insights into constructive ways of engaging with a controversial heritage in multiethnic societies. Keywords: cultural heritage; fascism; memory; monuments; reconciliation; South Tyrol; multi- ethnic societies DOI: 10.14712/23363231.2018.1 Introduction The Victory Monument in Bolzano/Bozen, a town in the province of South Tyrol in northern Italy, immediately reminds the visitor of the fascist period in which it was erected. Its columns resemble the lictoral fasces, which later became a model for a key element of fascist architecture.

Iceman – Quo Vadis?
Iceman – quo vadis? Virtual Symposium for the Icemans’s 30th anniversary Bolzano, Italy | 20th September 2021 ONLINE EVENT ONLINE On 19th September 1991, the 5300-year-old Iceman, commonly known as “Ötzi”, was discovered on the Tisenjoch in South Tyrol, Italy. Over the last 30 years, a wide range of studies have revealed all kinds of interesting details about the Iceman’s life circumstances and his state of health. To mark the 30th anniversary of the discovery of Ötzi, we will be holding the online “Iceman - quo vadis?” symposium and you are invited to join us for this special event. The purpose of this symposium is to look at challenges and opportunities for future research on the Iceman. The symposium will be held instead of this year’s World Congress on Mummy Studies, originally planned for September 2020, but now postponed until September 2022, due to the Covid 19 pandemic. Registration needed - NO participation fee If you are interested to participate, please register through this link by 17th September 2021 Language: English Contact: Eurac Research Institute for Mummy Studies [email protected] 20th September 2021 PROGRAM Moderation: Albert Zink – Eurac Research, Institute for Mummy Studies, Bolzano 13:00-13:15 Welcome Roland Psenner - President Eurac Research, Bolzano Albert Zink - Eurac Research, Institute for Mummy Studies, Bolzano 13.15-15:15 Presentations 13:15 Uncovering the ancient human Nicola Segata - University of Trento, microbiome Department of Cellular, Computational and Integrative Biology – CIBIO 13:35 The Short -
Agonistic Interventions Into Public Commemorative Art: an Innovative Form of Counter-Memorial Practice?

Email: [email protected] 1 INTRODUCTION Public monuments and memorials, which are erected in the urban environment in order to commemorate significant historical events and personalities, have been recognized by scholars as sites at which hegemonic understandings of the past are reinforced (Saunders, 2018: p. 33). They constitute symbols of “public memory” (Bodnar, 1993) and can take on the function of significant lieux de mémoire (Nora, 1989), giving concrete form to dominant conceptions of national history and identity. Given the resources that must be mobilized to create them, both monetary and political, such forms of public commemorative art (as we will term them here) have been acknowledged as a means by which “those with political power within a given society organize public space to convey (and thus teach the public) desired politi- cal lessons” (Levinson, 2018: 7). This hegemonic function of public commemorative art is most often associated with the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, in which emerging bourgeois democracies in capitalist nation states sought to establish the dominance of their values in an explosion of “statuomania” (Michalski, 1998: pp. -

Minorities Formation in Italy
Minorities Formation in Italy GIOVANNA CAMPANI Minorities Formation in Italy Introduction For historical reasons Italy has always been characterized as a linguistically and culturally fragmented society. Italy became a unifi ed nation-state in 1860 after having been divided, for centuries, into small regional states and having been dominated, in successive times, by different European countries (France, Spain, and Austria). As a result, two phenomena have marked and still mark the country: - the existence of important regional and local differences (from the cultural, but also economic and political point of view); the main difference is represented by the North-South divide (the question of the Mezzogiorno) that has strongly in- fl uenced Italian history and is still highly present in political debates; and - the presence of numerous “linguistic” minorities (around fi ve percent of the Italian population) that are very different from each other. In Italy, one commonly speaks of linguistic minorities: regional and local differences are expressed by the variety of languages and dialects that are still spoken in Italy. The term “ethnic” is scarcely used in Italy, even if it has been employed to defi ne minorities together with the term “tribes” (see GEO special issue “the tribes of Italy”). When minorities speak of themselves, they speak in terms of populations, peo- ples, languages, and cultures. The greatest concentration of minorities is in border areas in the northeast and northwest that have been at the centre of wars and controversies during the 20th century. Other minorities settled on the two main islands (where they can sometimes constitute a ma- 1 Giovanna Campani jority, such as the Sardinians). -

The South Tyrol Model: Ethnic Pacification in a Nutshell https://www.e-ir.info/2021/07/19/the-south-tyrol-model-ethnic-pacification-in-a-nutshell/ ROLAND BENEDIKTER, JUL 19 2021 Avoiding the return of tribal politics – and political tribes – by institutionalizing group diversity has become one priority in the age of re-globalization and populism. The unique diversity arrangement of the small autonomous area of South Tyrol, in the midst of the European Alps, provides a much sought-after counter-model to the return of political tribalism in the clothes of ethnonationalism. This model of ethnicity-inclusive territorial autonomy is not dependent on the daily goodwill of politicians and citizens as many others are but is institutionalized through the anchorage in the national Italian constitution and thus has the ability to impose “tolerance by law”. The international framework could not be more timely to make this model an example. The current trend of re- nationalization favors the return of mono-narratives of identity and ethnic belonging not only in Europe but on a global scale. Yet Europe, as the continent which over the past half-century has found some of the most successful models of politically and juridically arranging ethnic diversity and cultural difference, is particularly challenged by such a trend. -

The Dolomites the World Natural Heritage List Unesco
THE DOLOMITES THE WORLD NATURAL HERITAGE LIST UNESCO Nomination of the Dolomites for inscription on the World Natural Heritage List UNESCO Odle / Geisler O the mind, mind has mountains; cliffs of fall Frightful, sheer, no-manfathomed. Hold them cheap May who ne’er hung there 2 G.M. Hopkins (1844 - 1889) Nomination of the Dolomites for inscription on the World Natural Heritage List UNESCO THE TENTATIVE LIST AND THE NOMINATION OF THE DOLOMITES This Nomination Document is the answer to the Decision to defer the previous nomination of the Dolomites (2005) expressed by the World Heritage Commit- tee during the Thirty-first Session Christchurch, New Zealand (23 June – 2 July 2007). In detail, the World Heritage Committee having examined Documents WHC-07/31. COM/8B and WHC-07/31.COM/INF.8B.2, defers the examination of the nomina- tion of The Dolomites, Italy, to the World Heritage List on the basis of criteria (vii) and (viii). As outlined in the document licensed by the Word Heritage Committee at the end of the 29th session held in Durban, South Africa, in July 2005, Italy has proposed the Dolomites as one of the sites deserving consideration for a possible future nomination as a site of outstanding universal value. The request was included in annex 1 of the Tentative List dated march 31st 2005, whereas the denomination ‘Dolomites’ is defined in annex 2 “Tentative List Sub- mission in accordance with decision 27 Com 8a” and annex 3 (Properties ac- cepted as meeting the requirements for Tentative List), within the scope of the broader denomination ‘Alps’, which also includes a) Western Alps and c) Eastern Alps, under the category ‘Natural Sites’.
