Il volume offre un quadro analitico per interpretare la crisi ambientale da un punto di vista sociospaziale, nella convinzione che, per comprendere la società, e ancora di più i problemi socioecologici, lo spazio ha un ruolo rilevante. Dopo avere delineato le coordinate teoriche e concettuali, il libro individua i punti di incontro fra le teorie della sociologia dello sviluppo, l’ambiente e il territorio; si concentra sulla città, per indagare le relazioni tra dimensioni morfologiche e sostenibilità degli insediamenti urbani; si occupa di confini: da un lato, affrontando le diverse concezioni di sostenibilità che coesistono nella nostra società e utilizzando l’espediente dei confini cognitivi, dall’altro, guardando alla relazione tra i confini creati dall’uomo e quelli della natura; approfondisce il tema della giustizia ambientale, mostrando come essa si intersechi sempre con questioni sociospaziali. Infine, si focalizza sulle politiche, individuando i principali approcci con i quali esse fronteggiano la questione ambientale e mettendo in evidenza soprattutto quelli place-based. [Abstract translated by Google Translate: This is the abstract in English… The volume offers an analytical framework for interpreting the environmental crisis from a socio-spatial point of view, in the belief that, to understand society, and even more so socio-ecological problems, space has an important role. After having outlined the theoretical and conceptual coordinates, the book identifies the meeting points between the theories of development sociology, the environment and the territory; focuses on the city, to investigate the relationships between morphological dimensions and sustainability of urban settlements; deals with boundaries: on the one hand, addressing the different conceptions of sustainability that coexist in our society and using the expedient of cognitive boundaries, on the other, looking at the relationship between the boundaries created by man and those of nature; explores the theme of environmental justice, showing how it always intersects with socio-spatial issues. Finally, it focuses on policies, identifying the main approaches with which they tackle the environmental issue and highlighting above all place-based ones.]
