The design of the landscape, with its diverse territorial environments and its technical components, in relation to the paradigm of resilience, must be reinterpreted increasingly more as a process of technological-environmental transformation of inhabited space in its entirety and its consistency as a complex system of interaction between man, nature, artefacts and society.

Abstract
Initially employed by the material sciences and successively applied to ecological and cognitive disciplines, the notion of resilience was also defined by debate on complex systems of settlement. This introduced the first discussions of urban resilience, landscape resilience and even the resilience of buildings. The definitions attributed to the term as resilience of complex socio-ecological systems also suggest a shift in content and significance linked principally to the development of projects that take into account the conservation and regeneration of landscape values. In the short to medium-term, the acceptance and specific socio-ecological definition of the concept of resilience in the field of landscape design will undoubtedly comport a re-orientation, if not a true evolution in relations between inhabited space and building technologies, beginning precisely with new methodologies and the systemic theoretical-applied foundations of this new paradigm. The design of the landscape, with its diverse territorial environments and its technical components, in relation to the paradigm of resilience, must be reinterpreted increasingly more as a process of technological-environmental transformation of inhabited space in its entirety and its consistency as a complex system of interaction between man, nature, artefacts and society.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
