Progettualità condivisa nel binomio norma-progetto

The regulations viewed as a system of recognised and agreed values must take into consideration the complexity of the relationship between humankind and the environment. This presents an ethical problem with regards to the collective moral conduct during the design of the project and the definition of adequate methodologies to support this dimension. The participatory formulae pursue this possibility but with solutions that are partially ineffective due to the asymmetry between the knowledge of the expert and of the non-expert, and the different resources available to institutional and non-institutional actors. The analysis of the regulations and a case study identifies certain critical issues and possible solutions to resolve them, which involve the role of the design architect in society.
