This book is a multi-faceted reflection on the links between territory and circular economy, a theme that revolutionizes our way of understanding the logic of produc- tion and consumption, of organizing social and urban structures, and of thinking about the principles and objectives of planning. The circular economy changes the forms of urban life: this volume intends to explore how the concept, starting from its origin and in relation to its possibilities of directing individual and collective choices and behaviors, reorients planning and territorial management models. “The circular economy is a resource-rich economic system and a device for inno- vation, bringing ongoing benefits to society, now and in the future. It is planned cradle to cradle, for an endless recirculation of clean technical and biological mate- rials, energy, water, and human ingenuity”. Innovation is the focus of our attention because it allows us to rethink the territory in terms of sustainability and relationships between city and environmental components, between society and ecology, as refer- ences to innovate objectives and methods of observation and description, models of prediction and design, forms of participation and evaluation, of contemporary urban planning.

Abstract
This book is a multi-faceted reflection on the links between territory and circular economy, a theme that revolutionizes our way of understanding the logic of produc- tion and consumption, of organizing social and urban structures, and of thinking about the principles and objectives of planning. The circular economy changes the forms of urban life: this volume intends to explore how the concept, starting from its origin and in relation to its possibilities of directing individual and collective choices and behaviors, reorients planning and territorial management models. “The circular economy is a resource-rich economic system and a device for inno- vation, bringing ongoing benefits to society, now and in the future. It is planned cradle to cradle, for an endless recirculation of clean technical and biological mate- rials, energy, water, and human ingenuity”. Innovation is the focus of our attention because it allows us to rethink the territory in terms of sustainability and relationships between city and environmental components, between society and ecology, as refer- ences to innovate objectives and methods of observation and description, models of prediction and design, forms of participation and evaluation, of contemporary urban planning.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
