Planning and Managing Historic Urban Landscapes
Francesco Siravo's essay ‘Planning and Managing Historic Urban Landscapes’, compares traditional urban planning methods and those needed to preserve the character and social structure of an historic environment. On the basis of an extensive experience in dealing with historic areas in Europe, Africa and Asia, he points to the components that a sensitive planning practice should avoid disrupting the physical and social environments, ranging from the analysis of land ownership and tenure to economic activities, infrastructure and services needs, as well as financial aspects.
This discussion id enriched by an interview with Mohsen Mostafavi on the challenges of urban transformation brings to our attention the risks of conservation approaches aimed at freezing the historic city, without considering its relationship with the broader urban, regional and ecological contexts.
