Descrizione

This paper focuses on the relationships between mobility and urban public spaces. Referring to the simmelian theory of sociability, we aim to answer to some fundamental questions: are public spaces still places of sociability? Through what practices can some mobile populations foster social interaction? Which may be the way to create public spaces in increasingly privatized contexts? In order to clarify these questions, the paper refers to the town of Alghero, as a relevant example, characterized by a strong presence of tourists. The public spaces are progressively losing their function of fostering the sociability which is performed by the third spaces or public spaces self-created by young people. Nevertheless, the presence of tourists is not significant for the local social life, because of their limited relationships with local people. Some other forms of sociability are activated both by those social actors who are connected to the public art and by the students.
