topic
A growing number of cities aim to become
iconic scenarios in global economy.
One of the main goals of the urban
regeneration policies has been the raise of interest for the development of
public space creation and renovation. As a result, the former spaces are
transformed by the new venues-places. The traditional open space expands into
new ways of public spaces internalization.
Due to the massive movement of tourists,
the concept of both public and private space has been changed.
Nowadays the design projects for the
regeneration or the improvement of the quality of public spaces within the
city, intended as new leisure spaces, can be a driving force for local
development. In this process tourism acts a main role, being a source of urban
transformation. Re-designed public spaces are often transformed in new iconic
places, attracting both local visitors and visitors from abroad, so becoming
– not always without conflicts – the main places of meeting between
tourists and inhabitants.
Currently, the citizens often put into
question the validity of collective and social spaces, because of the progressive
replacement of its socio-cultural function by an economic, touristic or private
one. According this some questions have arisen: which urban and architectural
strategies are capable of materializing public spaces? Which cultural values, collective memory or
social functions, are transmitted to the urban space? Which links do these
spaces establish with the rest of the urban fabric and the city life? How the
both commodification and the new commodization change the urban space?
