Climate change and eco-anxiety. Proximity tourism in Terminio Cervialto area. – Based on the presentation of the relationship between eco-anxiety and demand-side tourism behavior, the present research paper, first aims to carry out some critical considerations on the value (including future) of proximity tourism in the process of climate change mitigation. Empirical study – using a qualitative survey of a sample of residents in the Campania Region – will help to understand the determinants of travel destination choices and, in particular, the aspects that might determine a preference for proximity tourism.
In piena conformità alla dantesca citazione “Nomina sunt consequen-tia rerum”, il lavoro di Maria Giuseppina Lucia, Simona Epasto, Monica Maglio e Stefano Valdemarin si presenta ricco di implicazioni e di signifi-cati già a partire dal macro-titolo “Geografia finanziaria”.
E-participation in River Contracts in the Campania Region. The Case of the Tusciano River experience. – The paper explores the contribution of Information Communication Technologies to local participation in River Contracts. These forms of agreement enable the adoption of a system of rules in which environmental sustainability criteria are implemented through effective solutions for the redevelopment of river basins. The prerequisite for the establishing of a River Contract is the involvement of all interested parties at the various levels of management. However, the widespread distribution of experiences in River Basin Districts and the application of innovation are not homogeneous in Italy. In particular, in the Campania Region both notable delay and poor participation have been evidenced. The analysis of the case of the Tusciano river continues to confirm a wide gap between the rhetoric of participation and effective operational practice.
