- Abstract
Starting from the relationship between urban planning and mobility management, TeMA has gradually expanded the view of the covered topics, always remaining in the groove of rigorous scientific in-depth analysis. This section of the Journal, Review Notes, is the expression of a continuous updating of emerging topics concerning relationships between urban planning, mobility and environment, through a collection of short scientific papers written by young researchers. The Review Notes are made of four parts. Each section examines a specific aspect of the broader information storage within the main interests of TeMA Journal. In particular, the Urban planning literature review section aims at presenting recent books and journals, within global scientific panorama, on selected topics and issues. This first contribution aims to outline the scenario of climate risks faced by cities on the Mediterranean coasts. The mare nostrum region is particularly sensitive to global warming-related phenomena, both because of its position exposed to oceanic, Saharan and polar currents, and because of its intrinsic vulnerability, the roots of which are to be found in the history of conflicts and migrations, of development visions that are antithetic yet complementary. The first contribution of the Review Notes for TeMa vo. 15 highlights the need for integrated action to address the climate crisis in the Mediterranean region, bringing together the strengths and weaknesses of its shores, despite social, economic and political differences.
