Covid-19 as a systemic shock
The COVID-19 pandemic, originating as a health crisis but quickly expanding to other social spheres, had significant and asymmetric impacts across Europe, which potentially undermine territorial cohesion. Much has been written about the overall impact of the pandemic on the underlying thematic and budgetary focus of European Union-level policies with respect to territorial cohesion. However, it remains unclear to what extent policies implemented …
Bedolina
This article proposes a semiotic approach to interpreting the Valcamonica rock maps located in northern Italy, taking Bedolina Rock n. 1 as an example. Specifically, it uses cartographic semiosis, a theory formalized in Italy over the last decades, to suggest that prehistoric engravings are not mere representations of territory but also symbolic markers that record the relationship between the Camuni, an ancient Italian people, and their mountain…
Reflexive Cartography
Reflexive Cartography addresses the adaptation of cartography, including its digital forms (GIS, WebGIS, PPGIS), to the changing needs of society, and outlines the experimental context aimed at mapping a topological space. Using rigorous scientific analysis based on statement consistency, relevance of the proposals, and model accessibility, it charts the transition from topographical maps created by state agencies to open mapping produced by citi…
Towards a Theory of Interpretation
Over the last 10 years a new theory in the interpretation of cartography has taken shape. In her overview of the various interpretative approaches that have variously contributed to the present critical approach, the author identifies semiotics as one of the trails principally worth pursuing. A semiotic approach, namely a theory of cartographic semiosis, effectively shifts the emphasis from maps intended as a mediation of territory to maps taken …
Mythologies africaines dans la cartographie française au tournant du XIXe siècle
L'article essaie de montrer que, par le biais de la cartographie, sont créées des mythologies à propos de l'Afrique que nous pouvons baptiser « de retour », c'est-à-dire qu'elles sont créées par les Occidentaux et transférées dans le projet de domination comme s'il s'agissait de qualités africaines. La première mythologie concerne la transmission d'une Afrique riche de ressources et de possibilités d'exploitation; la seconde considère que c'est u…
