Condizioni abitative e salute nello scenario della transizione ecologica

2023 - Franco Angeli

181-195 p.

  • The ecological transition has brought to the forefront the issue of the environmental compatibility of the construction industry, both in terms of the sustainability of buildings and construction methods. However, recent years have seen paradoxical situations where the increased energy efficiency of buildings has unexpectedly resulted in negative impacts on the health of their occupants, and where urban regeneration initiatives have produced unforeseen consequences on local populations. The interplay between environmental sustainability of buildings and the health of occupants is a complex issue, and Sociology of Health can provide valuable insights in this field. By conducting a literature review, this article investigates the unintended effects of urban policies that lack foresight and fail to connect with public health policies. These aspects have been largely neglected in sociological research thus far. [Publisher's text].
