摘要

意大利关于城市和内部地区关系的辩论围绕着一些对立的立场——以及某种程度上简化的立场——两极分化。一方面,存在着针对“村庄”的言论,这些“村庄”旨在成为逃避大流行的重新居住的偏远地方。另一方面是对大都市的叙述,它被设想为一个支点,从这里重新开始——遵循已知的增长和集中模式——尽管新冠病毒暴露了脆弱性。为了克服这些并列的方法,我们的工作想要阐明“中间领土”的重要性,作为在新的边缘地理中重新思考的优先场所。在意大利,这种被称为\emph{Italia di mezzo}的中间地区占据了一半的国土面积,拥有一半以上的人口。此外,它们体现了极其清晰的地理:它们包括20世纪城市化的一部分(如沿海定居点、工业区、“城市扩散”的各种特征)、具有不同行政和功能中心性水平的中型城市、大都市带的部分以及平原和丘陵上的大量农村地区。面对当代状况的根本风险和不确定性,必须照顾好这些领土,不仅因为它们迫切需要投资,以解决被遗忘的关键问题(从必要的生产链重新转换到气候变化的影响)。这些领土由于具有弹性和可塑性的特点,在面对危机现象时也能发挥战略性的积极作用。如果我们从关系的角度来看它们——而不仅仅是从拓扑的角度来看——这些中间区域可以扮演双边“中介”和“铰链”的角色。“一方面,他们可以准备向内陆和人口较少的地区提供援助和支持;另一方面,通过利用其基础设施和社会资本,它们可以为污染最严重的大都市地区提供缓解拥堵的机会,并提供更便利的生活和工作条件。

Italia di mezzo
The Italian debate concerning the relationship between cities and inner areas polarized around a few dichotomous - and somehow simplifying - positions. On the one hand exists the rhetoric addressing the ``villages'', intended as remote places to re-inhabit, escaping from the pandemic. On the other hand is the narrative of the metropolis, envisioned as a place-fulcrum from which to start again -- following the already-known patterns of growth and concentration -- despite the fragilities made explicit by Covid. In order to overcome these juxtaposed approaches, our work wants to shed light on the importance of ``intermediate territories'' intended as priority places to rethink within a new geography of marginality. In Italy, such intermediate territories, named \emph{Italia di mezzo}, occupy half of the national surface and host more than half of the population. Moreover, they embody extremely articulated geography: they include portions of twentieth-century urbanization (such as coastal settlements, industrial districts, various traits of ``città diffusa''), medium-sized cities with different administrative and functional centrality levels, sectors of metropolitan belts and a substantial share of rural areas in plains and hills. Faced with the radical risks and uncertainties that characterize the contemporary condition, it is essential to take care of these territories not only because they urgently need investments aimed at solving forgotten critical issues (from the necessary reconversion of production chains to the impact of climate change). These territories can also play a strategic positive role in the face of crisis phenomena thanks to their characteristics of elasticity and plasticity. If we look at them from a relational point of view - and not only from a topological one - these intermediate territories can play the role of two-sided ``intermediaries'' and ``hinges.'' On the one hand, they can be prepared to provide assistance and support to the inner and less densely populated areas; on the other hand, by taking advantage of their infrastructural and social capital, they can offer decongesting opportunities for most polluted metropolitan areas and more accessible living and working conditions.
