For the Return to the Civitas, the City of Souls: The Lesson of the Pandemic
摘要
The text identifies an exit strategy from the current entropic crisis triggered by the pandemic through a reflection on the future of the city, understood as a place of human life and not as a mere space of economic and financial transactions. The need for a cultural paradigm shift is identified by focusing on the city as the place of human relations and community identity. The text explores the history of Italian cities and their role in the construction of civilization by recalling the importance of an integrated approach that combines urban planning, ecology, and citizen participation to realize a vision of the city that is sustainable, inclusive, and able to adapt to future challenges.
