The Città Metropolitana as an Opportunity to Promote Integrated Development Between Central and Marginal Areas: The Case of Reggio Calabria
The role of metropolitan areas has been the subject of careful and profound reflection by European Union’s institutions which have revised their development and cohesion policies. Large metropolitan areas are a main driver for development, but at the same time they tend to grow and feed themselves at the expense of surrounding territory.
In Italy the choice to make the Città metropolitane coincide with the old province makes sense and reason only if the fate of weak and poorest areas should integrated with the one of the strongest and richest. In this sense Metropolitan City is intended as a vast and inclusive territory that need a strategy taking into account the specificities, potentials and legitimate aspirations of inner territories without privileging central core or coastal areas.
The hypothesis to be developed in the paper is that the Reggio Calabria metropolitan strategic plan should be characterized by a more flexible territorial planning capable of creating networked projects, outlining a long-term general framework and taking into account that with different objectives different perimeters may correspond. A “variable geometry” which, while taking into account the municipal or inter-municipal administrative limits, pursues an integrated method, able to ensure the coherence between sectoral policies and articulated according to the different territorial divisions.
