La rigenerazione urbana nell’UE attraverso la relazione tra investimenti diretti esteri (FDI) e le smart cities
Abstract
Negli ultimi tre decenni l’Unione europea ha prestato sempre più attenzione al ruolo fondamentale che le città svolgono nello sviluppo del territorio europeo e il loro potenziale contributo per affrontare le sfide economiche, climatiche, ambientali e sociali con le quali l’UE continua a confrontarsi.Questa tendenza a collocare le città all’interno di scenari più ampi, anche sovranazionali, è imputabile al fatto che i fenomeni di globalizzazione e il predominio di un’economia ormai basata più sull’intangibile che sullo scambio di beni fisici, ha determinato una disintegrazione verticale di processi produttivi, cosa che apparentemente avrebbe potuto indebolire il ruolo delle città stesse, ma contemporaneamente ha innescato una iper-concentrazione di risorse nei nodi di gestione dei processi sovranazionali, con una conseguente amplificazione della valenza urbana. Tali nodi sono costituiti da città con determinate caratteristiche che le rendono, anche attraverso processi di rigenerazione urbana, città intelligenti.
Tale tema può essere approcciato con diverse metriche e sotto diversi punti di vista. Nel lavoro proposto l’analisi seguita è quella della ricerca della eventuale mutua correlazione tra investimenti diretti esteri e rigenerazione urbana secondo la prospettiva delle smart cities.
