Sotto il ponte : per una lettura socio-ecologica del disastro

The article proposes a reading based on the socio-spatial ecology of the the Morandi bridge's collapse, allowing to focus sociologically on the area mainly affected by the event and highlighting the importance of not consider it as a homogeneous whole, but instead recognizing its differences, at least in the two administrative sub areas, Certosa and Campasso, the most affected ones. Following this approach it is possible to delineate a before, during and after the disaster (disaster cycle) not only in terms of socio-demographic characteristics but also of territorial social capital, assuming that the differences found play a role in the future of the areas themselves. This allows the researchers to relate the consequences of the disaster with the territorial context, profiling worst scenarios precisely where territorial capital is lower [Publisher's Text].
