The planning of rural lands in the Neapolitan metropolitan area: an impossible challenge?

  • Biagio Cillo

Abstract

In the Neapolitan metropolitan area the rural lands are often represented by close areas inside large conurbations, for which there isn’t any interest to cultivation, because of the most greater economic convenience of their transformation in built areas. Such development is stimulated by the control of the territory practiced by the organized crime (camorra) able to rule the urbanization process. It’s necessary to regain the control of these areas, through different actions, to preserve them such open spaces, to improve environmental conditions and to assure a high quality level to the metropolitan landscape.
