Lo spazio di soglia tra città e accademia}, abstract={This paper mainly uses research of a bibliographical nature to investigate the forms of the third mission - or third stream - of universities by identifying some approaches to the issue and three possible ways of interpreting it. The main focus of the paper is on the ‘third mission family’ which concentrates on the social and cultural impact of exchange between universities and cities. Reference is made to the area of public engagement by universities and it reflects on the conditions under which it might be an important factor of both social and academic utility. In the background there is thinking on the relationship between cities and universities and on the possibility of defining a threshold area between these two terms that would be fruitful to both.} url={http://www.francoangeli.it/Riviste/Scheda_rivista.aspx?idArticolo=49093}, author={Francesca Cognetti} pages={18-22}, language={IT}}
