- Abstract
This special issue focuses on the current interpretation of the bibliography that have been shared during the course “Studi urbani: Spazio e Comunità” (Department of Architecture, Roma Tre University, Professor Giovanni Caudo), started ten years ago. Although this bibliography has been meaningful to everyone in a different way, it explains the phenomenon of globalisation, started at the time of the Roman Empire, until the current process of re-localization. The contemporary urban condition is based on the idea of “overcoming” the natural condition, in order to build another “second nature” and the institutions to regulate it. The conflict between these reasons of Nature and our human ambition can be read in the tension between our body and our actions. The concept of in-between is the key to address this ambivalence and the related misunderstandings. Two important approaches emerge in this collective interpretation to understand the relationships within a community: the body, as the minimal frontier of the presence, and the perception of an absence/lack, as a space of possibilities.
