| Summary: | <p>This paper shows the results of a research project on territorial conflicts in the Veneto region. The research describes the various types of conflict connected with territorial transformations. The number of conflicts and active committees suggests a lifelong interest in environmental issues as well as highlighting the significant role that land development and land use dynamics – which have occurred in the Veneto region in recent decades – are playing in this new phenomenon.</p><p>Conflicts should be interpreted not only as a public demand for more participation and involvement in territorial processes that have a direct impact on them and their standard of living, but also as a self-professed lack of confidence in a political class that has gradually reduced the capacity for political representation. </p> |
