Relazioni funzionali tra la costa e l'interno in una visione sistemica dello spazio costiero brindisino

The analysis considers the recent evolution of Brindisi coastal space. It argues that a greater territorial integration between coastal and inland areas dynamics is required. This would be positive for the agricultural areas, which are quite disadvantaged, but with remarkable productive and qualitative levels, for the industrial ones as well as for the development of tourism in the region. New territorial policies are therefore needed in order to assign new functions and spatial organisation to the existing acrivities, and to regenerate Brindisi from urban point of view. In fact the city reperesents the essential pole of this coastal region.
