Abstract

This paper aims at exploring the relationships between local actors’ mobilization and international openness in urban regeneration practices dealing with the self-organization ability of formal and informal citizens’ groups in the Italian context. It is drawn on the research frame of the so-called ‘mobile urbanism’, developed within assemblage thinking. Our main hypothesis is that assuming a deleuzian operational definition of assemblage as a multiplicity consisting of heterogeneous terms and establishing links, relationships between them, it is possible to highlight several mechanisms of urban policy ideas, tools and practices migrations through the international scene in order to overcome the idea of local/global as a dichotomy.
