Aprite le finestre. In senso fisico e metaforico. Più aria per respirare meglio; e per rigenerare le idee che ci serviranno nel post pandemia». L’economista Richard Florida, professore alla School of Cities and Rotman School of Management dell’Università di Toronto, studia da vent’anni i motori propulsivi che portano alla continua trasformazione delle città. È diventato famoso, attirandosi anche molte critiche, per la sua analisi sull’importanza crescente, se non determinante, della classe creativa nei destini della socialità urbana.
