In recent years, there has been renewed interest in mountain territories, which for a long time occupied a marginal position within design culture and debates on territorial governance, struggling to gain recognition beyond specific cultural contexts. Today, however, the mountain has emerged in all its dramatic urgency, becoming a subject of broader public concern. This renewed attention is not merely a matter of changing trends, but rather the outcome of a gradual succession of developments that have prompted scholars, planners, designers, and public administrators to turn their attention towards mountain areas. This rediscovery has been marked by a series of events which, when viewed retrospectively, trace the coordinates of a progressive shift in perspective and open up new fields of action for planning and design.
Negli ultimi anni si assiste a un rinnovato interesse verso la montagna, che per lungo tempo ha occupato un ruolo marginale all’interno della cultura progettuale e nel dibattito sul governo del territorio, faticando a emergere al di fuori di determinati contesti culturali. Ora la montagna si è disvelata in tutta la sua drammatica urgenza, è diventata argomento di dominio pubblico. Non è solo una questione di tendenze, ma il risultato di un progressivo succedersi di cose che hanno portato studiosi, pianificatori, progettisti e amministratori a rivolgere il loro sguardo verso monte. È stata una riscoperta scandita da episodi che, riletti a posteriori, definiscono le coordinate di un progressivo cambio di prospettiva e di nuove sfere di operabilità progettuale.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been renewed interest in mountain territories, which for a long time occupied a marginal position within design culture and debates on territorial governance, struggling to gain recognition beyond specific cultural contexts. Today, however, the mountain has emerged in all its dramatic urgency, becoming a subject of broader public concern. This renewed attention is not merely a matter of changing trends, but rather the outcome of a gradual succession of developments that have prompted scholars, planners, designers, and public administrators to turn their attention towards mountain areas. This rediscovery has been marked by a series of events which, when viewed retrospectively, trace the coordinates of a progressive shift in perspective and open up new fields of action for planning and design.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
