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.

  • Indagine Etnografica Sulle Brigate Autonome Livornesi) Tesina Di Francesco Sanna
    “Il bisogno di identità” (indagine etnografica sulle Brigate Autonome Livornesi) tesina di Francesco Sanna In riferimento al corso di “Metodologia delle Scienze Sociali” tenuto dal Professor Davide Sparti nel secondo semestre dell’anno accademico 2002 – 2003 Corso di laurea in “Scienze della Comunicazione” Università di Siena ~ Unità d’analisi ~ Il tema che questa breve indagine etnografica ha come focus è la curva di uno stadio, come luogo di aggregazione e identificazione. A mio parere infatti, in un mondo dove perlopiù si tende a togliere ogni punto di riferimento oppositivo, negli stadi si cerca di preservare il senso di identità e quindi di differenziazione; aspetto che ritengo costitutivo dell’essere umano. Quest’ultimo presenta infatti un naturale istinto aggregativo fondato prettamente su percepite similarità di caratteristiche identificative (fisiche, culturali, psicologiche) e di obiettivi (scopi strumentali e finali). A seguito di tale impulso si vengono a creare le condizioni di creazione del gruppo, dell’insieme “omogeneo”, e quindi di difesa di un qualcosa, in questo caso la squadra, i suoi colori e le sue tradizioni che, per quanto riguarda le Brigate Autonome Livornesi (B.A.L.), si legano a quelle dell’intera città di Livorno. Entrando nello specifico direi che nelle curve degli stadi si arrivano a riproporre i temi del dualismo comunale del tardo medio-evo. Esiste un territorio da difendere e custodire, la città di appartenenza. Esiste un esercito regolare che cerca di imporre il proprio dominio: la squadra; unito a chi si fa’ portavoce dell’onore della bandiera qualora il risultato del campo non sia stato degno: l’esercito degli Ultras.

  • 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.
