ABSTRACT

May I introduce myself. I have received important acknowledgements (No.18 Patronages: Council of Europe, Italian Ministry of cultural heritage and environmental conservation, National Council of Architects, etc.) and prizes with my publication Architettura Rurale tra Villa Literno e Carinola (Caserta) - Alinea editrice, Florence 2006 (Italy). I was included of the World Heritage Centre UNESCO (Paris) in the Team International Research "The Rural Vernacular Heritage" (2007-2011).
The representation of the anthropic environment is influenced by the presence on the territory of actors (stakeholder analysis), that is protagonists being able to activate the circulation of innovations fit for the involvement of the entrepreneurial system with the research world (see you the MoMa - N.Y.C. and the Disney Concert Hall - Los Angeles).
On the other hand, the sustainability of the areas subtend the knowledge of the key connections (attraction indexes) and the relations between the citizen-consumer and the cultural and productive Institution.
In fact, the studies on the birth of the modern architecture such as those on the rural architecture in Caserta and adjoining territories (see you research Le trasformazioni dell'ambiente casertano of the author) were carried out by elaborating a grid of knowledges which pointed out the key connections (attraction indexes) with which the architectonic elements and their environment are enjoyed. From the key connections, where the exchange processes among urban environment, social culture and civil society are formalized, the extent characterizing the role of architecture arise, whose uniformity on the territory constitutes the districts (Urban Landscape Units) cultural, tourism, production having territorial, environmental and architectonic value.
The territory was investigated by identifying "characterizing aggregation systems" and their exchanges with nature and the anthropic reality. The great cultural-tourism-archaeological systems (villae rusticae, great farms, historical parks, archaeological excavations, rivers), transportation systems (Appia, Real Cammino, Strada Latina, systems centuration) "urban systems" (historical, environmental and economical housing) and the "productions systems" (agricultural, industrial, collective services, commercial and artisans centres) defining all together the "Roman system" and the "Modern system".
The above referred territorial systems interact among them, upstream and downstream of the road and railroad. Geometry of the interchanges or a high number of interchanges concentrated on the same knot express a difficult relationship with the urban and natural environments and the large archaeological areas protected. The collected material was duly divided in study areas being significant and equipped with the relevant synthetic files showed that a remarkable number of knots concentrated in a restricted place, plans, in points defined "critical knots" of the environment.
The Sites of Community Interest (SCI), the Cultural Assets (archaeological sites, archaeological remains, medieval nuclei, Bourbon sites, centuriations), the Special Protection Areas (SPAs), the UNESCO Sites show the development of a complex culture articulated until the Enlightenment ­ industrial period (San Leucio).
The creation of a "network system" of the Urban Landscape Units having natural and anthropic value in the area of the Alto Casertano favours a concrete readability and preservation of the complex productive and social organization developed from the Roman period.
