RESEARCH
Research interests and National and international research projects (selected)
Since 1997, he is member of the scientific coordination of several national and international, MIUR (PRIN - National Interest Research Programme), CNR researches and Researches contracts.
In recent years, his scientific activities have been focusing on:
1) The study, also with an interdisciplinary approach, of the relationships between urban practices and planning, the relationship between the overall processes of formation and evolution of the city and the everyday life, urban policies in areas of settlement expansion, the relationship between re-appropriation processes and sense of places. More recently, it has focused on the relationship between major processes (socio-economic, financial, structural, etc.) of the transformation of the city, urban policies and conditions of living, and on urban regeneration of the peripheries (especially in Rome and in social housing neighborhoods) even through action-research programs.
Related research programmes (selection):
PRIN:
- PRIN 2010-2011 (since 2013 up to 2016) Post-metropolitan territories as emergent forms of urban space: coping with sustainability, habitability, and governance, unit coordinator
- PRIN 2008-2010 The local territorial project: methods, techniques and experiences, member of the local research group
Sapienza University Research Programs:
- Spatial and policy implications of the socio-economic structure and dynamics of Rome. An innovative integrated approach (University Main Program, 2019, ongoing), scientific coordinator
- Understanding and rethinking Rome's development model. Proofing interdisciplinary methodologies at city-territory scale (University Main Program, 2017), co-scientific coordinator
- Empowering peripheries. Testing transdisciplinary and inclusive methodologies (University Main Program, 2015), scientific coordinator
- Roman peripheries and new narrative and planning forms (University Program, 2010), scientific coordinator
- New urban peripheries: evaluation of settlement’s expansion of Rome (University Program, 2008), scientific coordinator
Partner of the project Self Made Urbanism. Peripheries of a Cosmopolitan City, supported by NGBK (Neue Gesellschaft für Bildende Kunst), Berlin in collaboration with metroZones, Center for Urban Affairs, Berlin and urbanXchange, Rome (2012-2013)
2) The study and the experimentation, even through action-research experiences, of participative planning processes. His research has been focusing on the re-consideration of urban design and planning not only as institutional processes, rather as complex social processes and as expression of a collective construction of meaning. These researches have been focusing on themes such as the ‘project’ as a collective learning process, the sense and the role of urban actions, new policies and processes of interactive-design and ‘collaborative projects’.
Related research programmes (selection):
- CNRS – LOUEST PICRI-IDF Research Programme “Democratie participative en Europe: vers une democratie technique?” (2006-2008), scientific coordinators Professor. Y. Sintomer and prof. M.-H. Bacque – Coordinator of the Rome research group.
- Scientific coordinator of research projects funded by the Department of Architecture and Town Planning (DAU) of the University of Rome ‘La Sapienza’ and the 1st Municipality of Rome: Participatory Action Plan- Methodological and operational criteria (2005-2006), City House- Methodological and operational criteria (2006-2007)
He has promoted (since 2010) and developed together with other professors, researchers and scholars of other disciplines (anthropology, sociology, geography, etc.) and other universities (Ferrara, IUAV Venice, Padua, Polytechnic of Milan, etc.) the interdisciplinary research network Tracce Urbane, which among other things annually holds a national conference on the most advanced research topics in urban studies.
