"Mostro o meraviglia?" Un'analisi comparata della stampa dell'insediamento di un inceneritore di rifiuti urbani a Torino e a Trento

Plant and infrastructure settlements with a heavy ecological impact represent a highly sophisticated and diverse phenomenon. From a socio-communicative point of view, the variables to be monitored are very abundant and for each of them it is possible to found different interpretations, one of which will be put forward during this speech. In order to strategically break those deadlocks connected to settlement projects of works considered useful but unwanted, it is necessary to fully know the complex reciprocal and often synchronic influences among the three players belonging to the high public media ranks (political system, public opinion, and mass media). To this end, the most meaningful results of a comparative study carried out between Turin and Trento will be shown so as to examine the public debate regarding the project to build a big household waste incineration plant. The aim is to trace the prominent coordinates which have typified the debate staged on the media arena, embodied by the local daily press, concerning the incineration issue.;
