    Some of your chosen references do not mention Paolo Ceccarelli, others use works by him which might be references under certain circumstances. Let me try to explain that second point. If they manufactured vacuum cleaners, the cleaners would be their work. A vacuum cleaner could not be a reference for them, simply because it is the product they make. So it is with research, writings, etc. However, a review of their work by others tends to be a review of them and their methods, so is a reference, as is a peer reviewed paper a reference for their work.

Paolo Ceccarelli during the creation of the first university degree course in urban planning in Italy

Paolo Ceccarelli (Bari, 25 June 1934) is an Italian urban planner.

Biography[edit]

Paolo Ceccarelli is the son of Galeno, surgeon, and Olga Lotti, and brother of Marcello, physicist and astronomer. He is married to Laura Balbo, an Italian sociologist and politician.

Academic and research activity[edit]

He graduated in Architecture at the University Institute of Architecture of Venice in 1959 and obtained a lecturing post in urban territorial planning in 1967.

In the years immediately following his activity in the field of urban planning and territorial planning developed along two lines: on the one hand research and journalism (he founded and directed the Biblioteca di Architettura e Urbanistica (Library of Architecture and Urban Planning) of Marsilio Editori in which books such as L’Immagine della Città (the Image of the City) by Kevin Lynchof which he is the curator, or L’Architettura della città (the Architecture of the City), by Aldo Rossi; he collaborates with Casabella-Continuità directed by E.N. Rogers), on the other his professional activity (he works with Giancarlo De Carlo for example at the Plan of the Historical Center of Urbino) and finally the administrative one.

In 1963 he wins a Commonwealth Research Fellowship in the USA and was associated as a researcher at the Joint Center for Urban Studies Archived 2022-07-15 at the Wayback Machine of Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He works on urban planning problems in North and South America and the Mediterranean area.

Having returned from the USA, he deals with socio-economic development and territorial planning policies both in the South and in the Mediterranean basin, for example working on the Benghazi Master Plan and conducting research for the Ministero delle Partecipazioni Statali . At the same time he promotes the development of urban and regional studies in Italy. From this the Italian Association of Regional Sciences and Archivio di Studi Urbani e Regionali.[1] (Archive of Urban and Regional Studies) were born. He subsequently founded and directed The New Atlantis, the first international urban studies magazine made in Italy, and CittàClasse [2].

In 1968 he returned to university teaching both at the University Institute of Architecture of Venice (IUAV) and at the Politecnico di Milano,(Polytechnic of Milan), of which Bernardo Secch was Dean. In Venice he organizes courses and seminars collaborating with various figures of Italian culture, including Chiara Saraceno, Gian Enrico Rusconi, Francesco Indovina, Miro Allione, Bernardo Secchi.He was also part of the scientific committee of the Istituto lombardo di studi economici e sociali. [3] (Lombard Institute of Economic and Social Studies). These experiences led to the creation in 1972 of the first urban planning university degree course in Italy, founded and directed by vanni Astengo.

In the 1970s and 1980s he was a visiting professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, at the University of California,Berkeley and Santa Cruz and conducted research at Harvard University.

From 1982 to 1991 he was Rector of the IUAV. He also continues his professional activity in Italy and abroad, for example with the supervision of the Master Plan of the Metropolitan Region of Addis Ababa.[4] Since the 1990s he has been involved in cities, smaller towns and wide-area planning in Italy, Latin America and Asia.

He founded the Faculty of Architecture of the Università degli Studi di Ferrara,which he directed from 1991 to 2001.[5] In this period he was involved in the promotion and construction of research and training networks between European, American, Japanese universities and emerging countries in Asia and Latin America. This work led to the foundation in Quitoin 2003 of Red Alvar, a network made up of the main schools of architecture and urban planning in Latin America [6], and to the international MAPAUS (later Eco-Polis) [7] Master on the design of sustainable urban environments.

In 2005, after the death of the founder Giancarlo De Carlo, he took over the leadership of the International Laboratory of Architecture and Urban Design,, ILAUD. In this capacity, he opens ILAUD to collaboration with architecture and urban planning schools in Brazil, China, Japan, India and South Africa. The research and planning themes concern physical organisation, economic and social activity, cultural development and heritage conservation in different cultural contexts and development situations[8]

Until 2008 he continued his teaching activity as full professor of "Territorial Planning" at the Faculty of Architecture and coordinator of the doctorate in economics at the Università degli Studi di Ferrara.

Since 2008 he has held the UNESCO Chair in "Urban and territorial planning for local sustainable development" [1], and since 2016 he has also been the coordinator of the Mediterranean UNESCO Chairs Network (MUNCH)[9]. The urban planning activity continues in Italy (for example with the strategic plan of Urbino[10]) and abroad (as Team Leader of the Master Plan of Gerico[11][12]). Since 2017 he has been Professor Emeritus of Urban Planning at the Università degli Studi di Ferrara.

Political activity[edit]

He was a city councilor in Padua (1961-1963) for the Partito Socialista Italiano (Italian Socialist Party) and in Venice (1990-1991) as an independent elected in the Partito Comunista Italiano (Italian Communist Party).
