This book presents a new paradigm of knowledge and action with respect to urban waterfronts and the "fluid city paradigm," explaining its methodological framework and describing an integrated and creative planning approach in which waterfront regeneration is pursued as a key urban-renewal strategy. It focuses especially on the WATERFRONT project ("Water And Territorial policiEs for integRation oF multisectoRial develOpmeNT"), which was funded jointly by Italy and Malta with the goal of developing common guidelines, strategies, and operational tools for the planning of coastal areas, based...
