Delle cause della grandezza delle citta
by Giovanni Botero, edited by Romain Descendre
Quali sono i fattori della crescita urbana? Per quali motivi alcune citta si sviluppano piu di altre? Come spiegare perche in certi casi la popolazione di un dato luogo cessa di aumentare? Sono domande che animano tuttora le scienze sociali, e che troviamo gia perfettamente enunciate in questo classico del pensiero urbano europeo, pubblicato da Giovanni Botero nel 1588. Stimolato dall’enorme ampliamento delle conoscenze in seguito alle scoperte geografiche cinquecentesche e fondato su un metodo comparativo allora inedito, questo libro – nel proporre un approccio “globale” alle questioni urbane – illustra una nuova, aurorale, idea di citta.
