The topic of the thesis is an in-depth study of the issues and solutions for a more sustainable regeneration of the small centres on the Italian territory. The followed path starts from a first overview of the phenomenon of minor centres. The first step has been that to describe the evolution of the concept of the minor centres, presenting the different visions born over time. After this first step, the thesis focused on the verification of their consistency on the territory, checking objectively if there is a really need to carry out their regeneration. At the same time, has been presented the sectorial legislation, with which are currently managed the different towns, highlighting the various points in which it is possible to see problems. Subsequently, has been presented and reviewed the available management tools, from which gave rise the various ideas for improving the regeneration of the centres. Another aspect studied has been this to study economic aids and economic programs proposed to sustain initiatives from people and communities, with the aim to underline that the regeneration of the centres is economically possible, only if these actions are well framed through some tools that make easier to choose the locations in which do the regeneration. The proactive part of the thesis has dealt with the possibility of setting up a system through which facilitate the choice methods to implement the regeneration of the minor centres. In particular, the proposal followed by the thesis, is to build a management infrastructure, capable to support administrations in choosing where to act and how to act, allowing to optimizing available resources, avoiding wasting them and achieving the regeneration of the minor localities as soon as possible. Every centre is unique in itself, with its own characteristics that distinguish it, a uniqueness that objectively however, makes difficult to establish easily where it is necessary and possible to start with the regeneration. The proposed method define and use a series of values, through which to go to measure and know the centres objectively and in a shared way, in order to obtain indications on the places that deserve greater attentions. The proposed system provide to use a series of indicators through which local characteristics are measured, taking into account different sectors, through a multiscalar and multidisciplinary approach. From this has been studied a system for the management of information of the localities, with a series of practical modules that can be provided to the administrators, to manage the flow of the actions and information necessary to establish the priorities for the regeneration of Italian minor centres.

Partendo dalla constatazione che il principio di disgiunzione regna tra i diversi ambiti del sapere, facendo perdere di vista l’unità del fatto umano, si propone, di rimando, una visione sistemica e complessa dell’uomo stesso, che può essere gestita adeguatamente soltanto tramite un approccio multidisciplinare alla questione. Indagando il metodo complesso proposto da Morin e mettendone in luce anche punti critici, si osserva come esso possa essere applicato alla filosofia, intesa come consulenza filosofica, trovando in essa un significativo approccio agli interrogativi esistenziali che caratterizzano l’uomo contemporaneo. Le considerazioni di Achenbach vengono lette, poi, infatti, alla luce dell’esperienza professionale dell’autrice. Si giunge così a concludere che la filosofia, se intesa come esercizio libero e costante del pensiero complesso, può costituire un valido strumento di dialogo e di ricerca della verità. / Starting from the observation that the principle of disjunction reigning among the different fields of knowledge loses sight of the unity of the human fact, proposed, in return, is a systemic and complex vision of man himself, which can be properly handled only by a multidisciplinary approach to the issue. Investigating the complex method proposed by Morin and also highlighting critical points, we observe how it can be applied to philosophy, understood as a philosophical counseling, finding in it a significant approach to existential questions that characterize the contemporary man. Achenbach's considerations are read, then, in fact, in the light of the professional experience of the author. This leads to the conclusion that philosophy, if understood as an unhindered and free exercise away from the complex thought, may be a valuable tool for dialogue and the search for truth.
