Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on 21st century geospatial technologies (GT). It highlights their broad range of capabilities and their essential role in effectively addressing and resolving critical everyday issues, such as environment, sustainability, climate change, urban planning, economy, culture and geopolitics. Featuring chapters written by leading international scientists, it discusses the application of GT tools and demonstrates that the problems requiring such tools transcend national boundaries, cultures, political systems and scientific backgrounds on a global scale. In addition, it enhances readers’ spatial understanding of, and geographical reasoning in connection with, societal issues. The book will appeal to scientists, teachers and students of geography, the earth sciences and related areas, as well as decision-makers interested in the application and capabilities of geospatial technologies and new, spatial methods for addressing important issues.

Book Patrimonio culturale e paesaggio

Download or read book Patrimonio culturale e paesaggio written by Maria Mautone and published by Gangemi Editore spa. This book was released on 2016-01-03T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il ruolo del patrimonio culturale e del paesaggio per la costruzione dell'identità territoriale è stato a lungo indagato dalle scienze umane che hanno chiarito le matrici di assetti consolidati, le valenze di componenti naturali e antropiche, i processi di attribuzione e arricchimento dei significati, le ragioni della conservazione e della valorizzazione. Superata questa fase, è necessario interrogarsi sulle modalità di gestione del "capitale culturale" affinché le potenzialità individuate possano esprimersi nei processi di pianificazione e nella programmazione economica; la riflessione scientifica deve, pertanto, focalizzarsi sulle ricadute applicative di impostazioni teorico-metodologiche solide e mature. In tale dibattito si inserisce il volume Patrimonio culturale e paesaggio: un approccio di filiera per la progettualità territoriale che propone un iter di ricerca basato sulla trasversalità e l'integrazione di competenze eterogenee, raccordate nelle fasi della "filiera culturale", al fine di superare la settorialità delle analisi e degli interventi. Per rispondere agli obiettivi della ricerca di base e di quella applicata, le scienze geografiche sono coinvolte in tutto lo spettro degli interessi disciplinari, dalla riflessione sull'essenza del paesaggio ai sistemi più innovativi della rappresentazione cartografica, dall'indagine dei fattori di pressione antropica e di omologazione paesaggistica alle nuove forme di una competitività territoriale perseguita nelle logiche della governance e del distretto culturale. Come un poliedro, il paesaggio va osservato da diverse angolazioni e prospettive per coglierne la molteplicità degli aspetti secondo un approccio multi-qualitativo (multi-quality approach). Analizzando mediante logiche di "filiera" il patrimonio culturale e ambientale, è possibile definire il quadro teorico-operativo a cui raccordare un articolato panel di competenze che, pur maturate negli ambiti specialistici della ricerca, possono costruire un articolato percorso d'indagine territoriale.

Book Smart Specialisation

Download or read book Smart Specialisation written by Dominique Foray and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-13 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book on a new policy approach that has been widely adopted in Europe and beyond. It analyses the concept of smart specialisation and discuss the need for smart specialisation strategies, explains why the approach is new and different from more standard policy processes and explores what are the conditions for successful implementation. Smart Specialisation: Opportunities and Challenges for Regional Innovation Policy describes the origin of the concept, explains when a smart specialisation policy is necessary, provides a detailed analysis of the design principles of the policy and discuss the pertinence of this approach according to regional development levels. Finally the book discuss the practical implementation phase of the process – based on the first feedback acquired from certain regions engaged in the preparation of their smart specialisation strategy. The book is original in that it provides the first full analysis of smart specialisation strategies both at theoretical and practical levels. It has been written at the critical period of the implementation of smart specialisation strategies in every region in Europe. The fact that the EU has adopted smart specialisation as a mandatory principle for every region and member states will make this book well received by and very useful for: i) policy makers in regional and national administrations in Europe, ii) policy makers in other parts of the world who are in charge of regional policy and have heard about the concept, iii) consultants, analysts and experts who are active on the "markets for smart specialisation diagnosis and expertise", iv) scholars, researchers and graduate students working in the field of regional studies, technology policy and geography of innovation.

Book Tutela e valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale

Download or read book Tutela e valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale written by FREGNI MARIA CECILIA and published by G Giappichelli Editore. This book was released on 2021-12-17 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il patrimonio culturale contribuisce alla piena realizzazione di ogni essere umano e deve essere considerato un bene comune, da custodire e valorizzare a beneficio delle generazioni presenti e future. Il volume analizza le principali e più attuali tematiche che la gestione e valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale presenta da un punto di vista giuridico, seguendo un approccio interdisciplinare e prestando particolare attenzione agli aspetti applicativi degli istituti normativi, esaminati anche in riferimento ad alcuni concreti beni d’eccezionale valore. I saggi contenuti nel volume sono redatti da studiosi specializzati nelle diverse discipline giuridiche che concorrono alla regolamentazione della materia (diritto internazionale, costituzionale, amministrativo, tributario, penale, ecclesiastico, dell’Unione europea) nonché da esperti con importanti funzioni operative; essi analizzano tanto questioni di carattere generale, affrontate comunque in una prospettiva attenta ai più recenti sviluppi (il significato e la portata della tutela del patrimonio culturale nella Costituzione, l’impatto delle norme internazionali sulla tutela dei beni culturali sia in tempo di pace che in tempo di conflitto armato, il ruolo della repressione penale nella protezione dei beni culturali) sia problemi più specifici emergenti nell’attuale dibattito giuridico (l’istituto della “impresa culturale e creativa”; le sponsorizzazioni di beni culturali; la diversità linguistica come componente del patrimonio culturale, la disciplina dei cammini e delle vie di pellegrinaggio; la sentenza della Corte penale internazionale relativa al caso di Timbuktu). Caratterizzano altresì l’opera alcuni saggi volti ad illustrare i problemi e le prospettive che si evidenziano nella gestione concreta di alcuni beni di particolare rilevanza, caratterizzanti il territorio, quali il sito Unesco di Modena (inserito, in ragione dell’eccezionale valore universale, nella Lista del patrimonio mondiale istituita dalla Convenzione di Parigi del 1972) e i musei universitari. Ciò allo scopo di favorire un dialogo tra studiosi e operatori, dal quale possano emergere nuove linee di sviluppo della regolamentazione giuridica.

Download or read book Smart Cities written by Antoine Picon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-11-16 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As cities compete globally, the Smart City has been touted as the important new strategic driver for regeneration and growth. Smart Cities are employing information and communication technologies in the quest for sustainable economic development and the fostering of new forms of collective life. This has made the Smart City an essential focus for engineers, architects, urban designers, urban planners, and politicians, as well as businesses such as CISCO, IBM and Siemens. Despite its broad appeal, few comprehensive books have been devoted to the subject so far, and even fewer have tried to relate it to cultural issues and to assume a truly critical stance by trying to decipher its consequences on urban space and experience. This cultural and critical lens is all the more important as the Smart City is as much an ideal permeated by Utopian beliefs as a concrete process of urban transformation. This ideal possesses a strong self-fulfilling character: our cities will become 'Smart' because we want them to. This book opens with an examination of the technological reality on which Smart Cities are built, from the chips and sensors that enable us to monitor what happens within the infrastructure to the smartphones that connect individuals. Through these technologies, the urban space appears as activated, almost sentient. This activation generates two contrasting visions: on the one hand, a neo-cybernetic ambition to steer the city in the most efficient way; and on the other, a more bottom-up, participative approach in which empowered individuals invent new modes of cooperation. A thorough analysis of these two trends reveals them to be complementary. The Smart City of the near future will result from their mutual adjustment. In this process, urban space plays a decisive role. Smart Cities are contemporary with a 'spatial turn' of the digital. Based on key technological developments like geo-localisation and augmented reality, the rising importance of space explains the strategic role of mapping in the evolution of the urban experience. Throughout this exploration of some of the key dimensions of the Smart City, this book constantly moves from the technological to the spatial as well as from a critical assessment of existing experiments to speculations on the rise of a new form of collective intelligence. In the future, cities will become smarter in a much more literal way than what is often currently assumed.

Download or read book Maciunas Learning Machines written by Astrit Schmidt-Burkhardt and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-06-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The art of cross-linked thinking consists in facilitating dealing with complexity and admitting new insights. This approach, prevailing in all realms of knowledge, determines also the artistic praxis of Fluxus initiator George Maciunas. This book shows some hundred diagrams and maps related to history from antiquity to postmodernism; they serve to visualize artistic, political, and economic correlations. If it were up to Maciunas, there wouldn’t be any real concept of the past without percepts. With his maps, diagrams, and tables, a big part of which is published for the first time, he tries to draw a picture of history in a different way. The result seems fascinating both on a scientific and artistic level. It opens insights into eye-opening correlations between dates and facts as well as makes appear completely novel forms of knowledge transfer.
