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”. -

Efficiency of wineries in and out of Sardinia’s wine routes Maria Giovanna Brandano°, Claudio Detotto*, Marco Vannini+ ° Corresponding author: University of Sassari and CRENoS (Italy), Via Muroni 23, 07100, Sassari-Italy, telephone number: +39079213511, ORCID ID: 0000-0001-9301-4505. Email: [email protected]. + University of Sassari and CRENoS (Italy). Email: [email protected] * University of Corsica (France) and CRENoS (Italy). Email: [email protected] Abstract The interest of travellers in wine tourism has been steadily increasing since the 1990s. Consequently, many regions around the world have adopted a variety of policies intended to promote eno-gastronomic tourism. In Sardinia (Italy) this form of tourism has shown a significant upward trend, and today provides a valuable opportunity to rural and often vulnerable inland communities to boost and diversify their economic structure. To encourage this type of tourism, in 2009 the Regional government identified some historic territories of the island and implemented the “wine routes programme” (WRP). These territories were selected according to their importance for growing local grape varieties and showcasing vineyards and winery establishments. The mandate of the routes was to create value around the local viticulture traditions, by sustaining the production of quality wines and by guiding visitors to the discovery of local produce, heritage landmarks and various expressions of the country's popular culture. Since winemakers play a pivotal role, the impact of the WRP on the performance of wineries is of paramount importance to achieve the final goal. -

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.

The Cagliari Airport Impact on Sardinia Tourism: a Logit-Based Analysis
Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences 54 ( 2012 ) 1010 – 1018 EWGT 2012 15th meeting of the EURO Working Group on Transportation The Cagliari Airport impact on Sardinia tourism: a Logit-based analysis Gabriele Benedettia, Luca Gobbatob, Guido Perbolib,c,*, Francesca Perfettib a BDS Consulting s.r.l., Turin,Italy b DAUIN – Politecnico di Torino, Turin, Italy c CIRRELT, Montreal, Canada Abstract In the field of air transportation management, traditionally, airlines have been the main actors in the process for deciding which new flights open in a given airport, while airports acted only as the managers of the operations. The changes in the market due to the introduction of low cost companies, with consequent reduction of the airports’ fares, as well as the increment of the density of regional airports in several European countries are modifying the mutual roles of airlines and airports. The final decision on new flight to be opened, in fact, is nowadays the result of a negotiation between airlines and airports. The airports must prove the sustainability on the new routes and forecast the economic impact on their catchment area. This paper contributes to advance the current state-of-the-art along two axes. From the pure transportation literature point of view, we introduce a Logit model able to predict the passengers flow in an airport when the management introduces a change in the flight schedule. The model is also able to predict the impact of this change on the airports in the surrounding areas. The second contribution is a case study on the tourist market of the Sardinia region, where we show how to use the results of the model to deduce the economic impact of the decisions of the management of the Cagliari airport on its catchment area in terms of tourists and economic growth. -

The Complex and Multidimensional Representation of the Landscape on the Volturno River Between Capua and Castel Volturno
The complex and multidimensional representation of the landscape on the Volturno River between Capua and Castel Volturno Alessandro CIAMBRONE1 (1) Department of Architecture and Industrial Design, Second University of Naples, Aversa (CE); Italy E-mail [email protected] Abstract The Volturno River – one of the main waterways of Southern Italy due to both its length and water flow – was the forced crossroad to many who, coming from the sea, wanted to reach the Port of Casilinum (today known as Capua). The reference territory for the analysis concerns the fluvial axis between Capua and Castel Volturno, which also includes the towns of Santa Maria La Fossa, Grazzanise and Cancello Arnone. The multi-disciplinary investigation, and the photographic report, focus on a landscape analysis related to the history, traditions, agricultural production as well as archaeological, natural, and cultural assets of the area. Furthermore, elements of degradation were considered, such as landfills and illegal constructions that have contributed, over the years, to undermining this part of the Ager Campanus defined the “Garden of Europe” by 18th century travellers. Nevertheless, the landscapes of the Volturno remain beautiful and can become a resource, not only aesthetic, but also for the area’s economic development, for example, through the creation of cultural and tourist routes. Thematic maps were developed by analyzing the historic, rural, flooded, urban and contemporary landscapes. From the analysis comes out the project for the establishment of a network between the fluvial axis and the cultural and landscape heritage of Campania, including the six World Heritage properties of the region [Caserta, Naples, Pompeii, Amalfi, Cilento, and Benevento (Italy Langobardorum)] as well as the emblematic places of the region: Mt.
