In this context, public and private transports can present high barriers to entry: timetables, routes and costs may preclude their use, especially among the most vulnerable and less autonomous sectors of the population. The City Council of San Casciano Val di Pesa (Italy) suffering in recent years from repeated cuts at the central and regional level to the financial resources needed to provide adequate public transportation, decided to share with its citizens not only the investment choices in new services but also to actively involve the local community and key stakeholders in the participatory design of an innovative integrated mobility network.

  • Codici Statistici Delle Unità Amministrative Territoriali
    30 giugno 2021 Codici statistici delle unità amministrative territoriali NOVITÀ PER L'ANNO 2021 1. Numero dei comuni 17 giugno 2021 Modifica confini regionali Con Legge n. 84/2021 è disposta la modifica dei confini delle Marche e dell’Emilia-Romagna a seguito del passaggio dei comuni di Montecopiolo e Sassofeltrio dalla Provincia di Pesaro e Urbino a quella di Rimini. 20 febbraio 2021 I comuni sono 7.904. Istituito il comune di Misiliscemi (TP) mediante scorporo dal comune di Trapani delle località Fontanasalsa, Guarrato, Rilievo, Locogrande, Marausa, Palma, Salinagrande e Pietretagliate. 2. Cambi denominazione Non si registrano variazioni fino alla data di riferimento del documento. 3. Le tipologie di ripartizioni sovracomunali Negli ultimi anni l’assetto amministrativo nazionale ha subìto numerosi cambiamenti, non solo in termini di numerosità di comuni, ma anche di organizzazione dei livelli gerarchici superiori (Province, Città metropolitane e Liberi consorzi di comuni). Cambiamenti che si ripercuotono sul tema delle unità territoriali da utilizzare, sia per la produzione di statistiche, sia come dimensione per la diffusione dell’informazione al livello territoriale intermedio tra Regione e Comune. Pertanto, a fronte dei cambiamenti amministrativi intervenuti, l’Istat introduce, il termine di Unità territoriale sovracomunale ad indicare le diverse tipologie di enti intermedi di secondo livello (Province, Città metropolitane e Liberi consorzi di comuni) in conseguenza delle leggi di riforma degli assetti territoriali. Restano invariati i loro codici statistici. L’Istat chiarisce, inoltre, che il termine di Unità territoriale sovracomunale ricomprende anche le “unità non amministrative”, ossia le ex-province di Trieste, Gorizia, Pordenone e Udine, dopo la soppressione degli Enti locali intermedi nella regione Friuli-Venezia Giulia.

  • Book Reviews Section
    Island Studies Journal, Vol. 1, No. 1, 2006, pp. 163-180 BOOK REVIEWS SECTION Albury, Paul (2004) The Paradise Island Story, 2nd edition, revised by Anne and Jim Lawlor, Oxford, Macmillan Caribbean, 136pp. (illus), $19.90 (hardcover). ISBN: 0333992571. The Story of Paradise Island is an innocent book. It wants to be a straightforward anecdotal narrative about the apotheosis of “Hog Island,” which forms a harbour for the Bahamian capital of Nassau, into “Paradise Island,” a wave-lapped Garden of Eden for heat-seeking tourists who like their creature comforts dosed with novelty. At one level, this slender book is just that. There is a sort of antiquarian frontispiece, full of pirates, privateers, and adventurers, before the arc of the narrative reaches the tourism era. There, after a few false starts and thwarted dreams, entrepreneurship and free enterprise triumph in the person of South African hotelier Sol Kerzner, “a man of single-minded vision” (a popular descriptor in the world of business, which, when it takes notice of the past at all, remains wedded to a “great men” version of it). At last count, Kerzner and his associates had invested something in the order of $1 billion in tourist accommodations, attractions, and infrastructure on the 850-acre island, turning it into one of the premiere tourist destinations in the Caribbean. What we have in this book, writes J. Barrie Farrington in a florid foreword, is not a critical examination of anything, really; rather it “is a journey of magical proportions through time and a series of financial adventures and escapades” (p.

  • Making Cities Resilient: Summary for Policymakers
    Making Cities Resilient: Summary for Policymakers A global snapshot of how local governments reduce disaster risk – April 2013 Photo cover: Alessandro Zanchini, Comune di Venezia. The City of Venice joined the Campaign as a Role Model for cultural heritage protection and climate change adaptation. Venice has developed a plan with both structural and bio-geomorphological management components, including coastal reinforcement, wetland reconstruction, reclamation of polluted sites, a system of mobile sea barriers, city pavement elevation, urban maintenance, flood monitoring, early warning and public awareness. Saint Mark’s Basilica: living with floods and tourists... Foreword “Building resilience is a forward looking, target driven approach to urban development that uses a wide range of measures addressing all elements of urban systems. Ensuring these targets are met demands all levels of communities and governments work together to ensure the safety of all people and protect the economic, social, environmental, and cultural assets and attributes which define the unique character of each city. As global leaders we must integrate disaster risk reduction criteria as a measure of progress for sustainable development plans and strategies. We must also strengthen local level capacity by reflecting the needs of local governments in international frameworks and promoting standards of resilience that can guide urban development and planning along a sustainable path.” Margareta Wahlström Special Representative of the Secretary General for Disaster Risk Reduction, UNISDR Dr. Joan Clos Under-Secretary General and Executive Director, UN-Habitat Making Cities Resilient Report 2013 Disclaimer The views expressed in this publication do not necessarily reflect the views of the United Nations Secretariat and are those of the authors and references cited.

    Supplementary Material S1: Additional information on the Local Administrative Unit and delimitation of each metropolitan area. To apply the PHI to the metropolitan areas it was deemed important to identify the adequated administrative level to provide evidence on urban inequalities. For this study the definition of a municipality from the Encyclopædia Britannica was applied (http://www.britannica.com/topic/municipality): «A municipality is a political subdivision of a state within which a municipal corporation has been established to provide general local government for a specific population concentration in a defined area (…). The municipality is one of several basic types of local government, the others being counties, townships, school districts, and special districts».). However, European countries have a diversified system of local government in which several different categories exist. For instance, the term municipality may be applied in France to the commune, in Italy to comune and in Portugal to município. EUROSTAT has set up a hierarchical system of Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) and Local Administrative Units (LAUs). NUTS are organized into four levels. NUTS 0 correspond to the 28 EU countries. NUTS 1 are the major socio-economic regions within a given country. NUTS 2 are basic regions for the application of regional policies and NUTS 3 are small regions for specific diagnoses. Below, the Local Administrative Units are also organized into two hierarchical levels: The upper LAU level (LAU level 1) and the lower LAU level (LAU level 2). For most European countries, LAU-2 corresponds to municipalities, except for Bulgaria and Hungary (Settlements), Ireland (Districts), Lithuania (Elderships), Malta (Councils), Denmark (Municipalities), Greece (Municipalities), Portugal (Parishes), and the United Kingdom (Wards) [47] (Table S1).

CEMFI Working Paper 1401 March 2014 SENDING THE PORK HOME: BIRTH TOWN BIAS IN TRANSFERS TO ITALIAN MUNICIPALITIES Abstract We ask whether the birthplaces of Italian members of Parliament are favoured in the allocation of central government transfers. Using a panel of municipalities for the years between 1994 and 2006, we find that municipal governments of legislators' birth towns receive larger transfers per capita. Exploiting the fact that some birth towns are outside of the district of election, we conclude that this result cannot be driven by re-election incentives. On the contrary, we show that these incentives discourage legislators from diverting resources to their birthplace.
