Summary

This presentation is a theoretical approach of an existing, planed real word project. The city of Pécs is going to be European Capital of Culture in 2010. Enterprise and academic efforts are spend on to promote local people to participate and play communicative and open role in this process. Using scenas in virtual space for local communication is one of the possibilities to support collaboration for real actions. The concept of e-neighborhood seems to turn real. This thematic "walk" is about to show some connection between theories of tourism, locality and network communication.

Forms of Participation, Nimbyism and Local Knowledge.Notes about two case-studies in the Campania region

Summary:

The field of development is subject to shifts in paradigms, and it is important to examine how some new approaches are present in this partial change. The relationship between different forms of local participation and local knowledge is interesting for a new approach to the sustainable development. In this paper the attention is pointed on the different forms taken by local participation and knowledge in the practice of development, with regard to the politics of waste management. Two cases in the Campania region are studied: Ariano Irpino, in the province of Avellino, and Acerra, in the province of Naples. The general goal is to point in evidence how some forms of informal participation can produce and stimulate different and deeper knowledge about local environmental issues.

Territorio, inseguridad y ciudadanía. El caso del barrio Rincón Las Perlas en el Al Valle de Río Negro y Neuquén, Argentina.

Introducción:

La intención de este trabajo es indagar sobre el fenómeno de la inseguridad urbana, tan presente actualmente en los medios de comunicación, en el discurso político y en la opinión pública latinoamericana, particularmente en Argentina. Vincularemos la noción de inseguridad como construcción social (PEGORARO 2003) con enfoques contemporáneos sobre el territorio, entendido como lugares donde una diversidad de actores ponen en marcha procesos complejos de interacción (BOZZANO 2009) buscando líneas de interpretación que permitan hacer avances teórico-empíricos en relación con una problemática que impacta directamente sobre la calidad de vida de los ciudadanos y la construcción del espacio cotidiano.

Compostela, interactions, meaning, relations, sustainable development, tourism

Summary:

The Compostela Ways are fashionable. They are an interesting research object in an approach from an information and communication science perspective, focusing on theinteractions and the primacy of the relationship to meet with issues of Territorial Intelligence. We will study the Compostela Ways as a special ground for the meeting of Competitive Intelligence in its societal and cultural dimension with Territorial Intelligence, particularly as a revealing and an identity marker, with the importance of the question of meaning. We will then study in terms of sustainable economic development of the territories crossed.

Preamble

The areas of industrial tradition have to face many challenges, among which the reduction of unemployment, soil depollution, economic redeployment and urban revival are important issues. These basins are singularly affected by world and regional dynamics, in front of which the local actors, first concerned, feel penniless. More generally, one can consider that local territories are subjected to increasingly complex constraints and dynamics (delocalization, metropolisation, exurbanisation…). This makes essential the search for innovating solutions in order to ensure a harmonious development of territories respecting sustainable development principles.

Conscious of the fact that the economic redeployment cannot be considered under only one sectoral angle, but that it is necessary to adopt a systemic approach; the SEGEFA brought its methodological support and its expertise in order to create a project of territory which integrates economic, social and environmental dimensions. This final report must make it possible for the Commune to take specific measures for the concretization of a strategic development plan. Consequently, it constitutes a tool of decision-making aid. At the beginning of the project, the participation of citizens was privileged in order to enrich the diagnosis by a more perceptive approach, and to share the conclusions of the territorial project for the broadest adhesion possible. Consequently, territorial actors were recognized as experts of the real-life experience of their territories, essential component of the participative step.

The experiment carried on in Flémalle tends to engage a permanent process of territorial intelligence, through the actors and with the support of an expert assesment either internally or externally. The first part of this article will deal with the particular context of the research, which tends to justify the emergence of the concept of territorial intelligence in a metropolitan context. The second chapter will be related to the methods employed in order to implement the stages, before approaching the results of the latter in the third chapter. The last chapter will approach, finally, the keys of the success of the process and the added-value generated by a process of territorial intelligence, in view of the research undertaken in the coordination action of the European network of territorial intelligence (caENTI).

INTRODUCTION

The reasoning that proposed the magical triad of growth, progress and development through the 20th century have been gradually losing ground when confronted to phenomena associated to the expansion of the western model, such as the increase in risks and inequalities between countries and regions, or the tremendous transformation of a considerable percentage of global ecosystems, that characterizes the current worldwide ecological crisis. This, together with market hegemony, the intensification of economic globalization and the influence of transnational companies over national territories, have been eroding the notion of governance, based until today on the political concept of sovereignty.

Introduction:

This paper lies within the framework of a line of research of the TAG Team - UNLP, originating group of the Latin American network www.territoriosposibles.org, where it is part of the actions related to territorial knowledge.

This work complements others1 that constitute part of the scientific production of the TAG Team, also presented in the International Conference of Territorial Intelligence ENTI Salerno 2009. Its general objective is to apply the TERRITORII method (Bozzano, 2009) to a concrete case study and test the theoretic-methodological principles that support it. This constitutes an analytic and reflective exercise to determine the degree in which theoretic and methodological principles are present to orient concrete action in a case study with territorial application.

In this context, the findings of this paper expect to constitute a contribution to the evaluation of the feasibility for the application of the TERRITORII method, oriented towards the standardization and systematization of results in the process of research of territorial applicability, within the framework of an interactive platform for the Social Sciences.

1. Introduction

1.1. Theory and objectives

In countries which can be characterised by market economy there is a naturally concomitant rate of minor or major presence of unemployment. In Hungary basically at the same time with the political transformation the open unemployment. Inside the country the socio-economic processes of the transformation were not going on equally in space and time so the appearance, culmination and fluctuation of unemployment shows significant differences. A gradual decrease could be observed in the country’s Western regions after the nationwide peak point of unemployment in 1993. Despite in the Ormánság and the micro-region of Sellye within - examined by me - the rate of unemployment by the first years of the XXI. century remained over 30%., moreover more people get out from the labour market and become inactive in the area, which takes part in the marginalisation of the areas.

This research refers to an ongoing investigation related to an urban industrial port area which is located on the south bank of the estuary of the Río de la Plata, 10 km from the capital city of the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. From Territories, Actors and Governance Team (TAG), a useful academic contribution to institutions and social actors involved in the Territories and places described. We will try to offer, therefore, some contributions in line with the methods outlined in the heart of the Possible Territories Network, Territoring Method, related to investigation and intervention. Taking as starting point a conceptual territorial base though not exclusive, we complement this view with input and tools from social, economic, environmental disciplines, among others. In this research the recent territorial transformations (ordering of uses and functions, land use, investments, etc.) are analized in relation to the port jurisdiction of La Plata. Particularly, we will study the logic displayed by social, political, economic actors and their patterns of occupation and ownership of the space. (Santos, M: 1996, 2000) (Karol, J: 2004).The resulting dispute over the use and appropriation of space between different activities (productive and unproductive) accentuate the complex overlapping of jurisdictions and agencies with potential competition authority. In this port area there are long-standing conflicts due to the complex network of actors with different interests in space...

Abstract:

A new field of research and experimentation is the cultural dimension of territorial intelligence, which means the analysis of the cultural conditions of a sustainable development.

Theses conditions are at least cultural diversity and social cohesion. Some significant works have been done concerning the link between culture, territory and identity; cultural diversity is very often considered from the point of view of cultural industries, but it must refer firstly to different people living in the same territory. A very important question is how diversity can be taken into account in the field of heritage and cultural wealth. After his very important work about « places of memory », Pierre Nora explains that there are three ages of the national heritage in France (but it is true elsewhere).

In the first Era (before 1980), the aim was to take inventory of exceptional and outstanding monuments and masterpieces of art and architecture.

After 1980, it was admitted that cultural heritage had to be enlarged to landscapes, but also to all human kinds of culture, including local heritage, minorities heritages, oral tradition and intangible culture (such as Unesco does for the list of world heritage). Since the beginning of the new century, because of digital technologies, everything can be conserved, everything can be added to common heritage, like billions of photographs available on the web.

This re evaluation of what we call cultural heritage has consequences on identities, and also on the link between culture and development. More and more, economists take into account the value of immaterial assets. It can be also proven that cultural heritage can be a source of local developmentand social cohesion. But local actors could work more efficiently if they had tools able to mobilisecultural resources in local developments projects. It could be a track for discussion in Enti Program.
