The “South-Italian City” — a cultural-genetic type of city
The “South-Italian city” is characterized at four different levels as an independent cultural-genetic city-type:1.The characteristics arrangement of the functional areas and the residential areas of different social groups is represented in a model.2.From the model, developments and changes in the arrangement of the functional areas can be identified which clearly deviate from those which are derived from the universal city model.3.Some of the structural individuality can be directly explained by the peculiar features of the respective social and economic history.4.Some of the special features must, however, be traced back to a wider historico-cultural background. Through this run processes which flow through the universal city development in similar forms, to the deviating structure of the “South-Italian city”.
Italien - Grundzüge des wirtschaftsräumlichen Strukturwandels 1950-1988
Die heutigen Beziehungen der ApenninenHalbinsel zu Mitteleuropa sind vorläufiger Endpunkt einer wechselvollen historischen Ent wicklungsreihe. Im Ausklang der Antike wurde die Kulturlandschaftsgenese in Mittelund Westeuropa durch Impulse aus Gebieten südlich der Alpen nachhaltig beeinflußt. Während des Hochmittelalters überwogen umgekehrt Ein griffe des Nordens auf die Apenninen-Halbinsel und trugen zur Gestaltung des politischen sowie wirtschaftlichen Strukturgefüges wesent lich bei. Auf kulturellem Gebiet ist für den glei chen Zeitraum eine von Süden nach Norden ge richtete Einflußnahme erkennbar. Seitdem je doch die politischen und ökonomischen Aktivi tätszentren aus dem Mittelmeerraum nach Mittelund Westeuropa übergriffen, schwäch ten sich die Beziehungen der Apenninen-Halbinsel zu Zentraleuropa ab.
Capturing Crime in the Antipodes: Colonist Cultural Representation of Indigeneity
This chapter adopts a Southern criminological lens, which allows the authors to explore how colonialism has been constructed and depicted in museums within both regional and urban Australia. By studying spatial and historical silences in Australian museums, this chapter offers a consistent frame to chronologically chart Anglo-Australian depictions of Indigeneity, imperialism and violence wielded by the state. As this chapter will argue, museums can often reflect Westernized (white) conceptualizations about Indigeneity and the state violence involved in colonization, which actively re-enforces popular views and influences sociopolitical visions of identity, the state and justice.
