Klappentext zu „Advances in Utopian Studies and Sacred Architecture “
At a time dominated by the disappearance of Future, as claimed by the French anthropologist Marc Augé, Utopia and Religion seem to be two different ways of giving back an inner horizon to mankind. Therefore this book, on the one hand, considers the importance of utopia as a tool and how it offers an economic and social resource to improve cities' wealth, future and livability. On the other, it explores the impact of religious and cultural ideals on cities that have recently emerged in this context.
Based on numerous observations, the book examines the intellectual legacy of utopian theory and practices across various academic disciplines. It also presents discussions, theories, and case studies addressing a range of issues and topics related to utopia.

Autoren-Porträt
Claudio Gambardella (1953), architect and designer, is Associate Professor of Industrial Design at the Department of Architecture and Industrial Design (DADI) of the Università degli Studi della Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli" - formerly known as Seconda Università degli Studi di Napoli (SUN) - since 2010. He is currently working on two main research branches: the first one concerns a new concept of company museums, that he has been studying for years, to create a distinctive identity that differentiates them from other types of museums. On this topic he directed a series of publications for publishing company Alinea, being the author of the publication entitled "OFFICIAMUSEUM. The Regional Museum System of Design and Applied Arts" (2008). He is scientific advisor and artistic director for the project "Temporary Museum of Enterprise" product of excellence in Campania, under construction in Pompeii, under an agreement between the city of Pompeii and Vanvitelli University. The second research branch he is focusing on is about the preservation and enhancement of those forms of design that are capable of connecting with local craftsmanship, thus developing what Gambardella calls "Handmade in Italy", i.e. a kind of design that is strongly linked to local diversity over the country, competing with the more globalized "Made in Italy".
