HOW MARGINAL IS MEDIUM-SIZED CITIES’ INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE? A COMPARISON BETWEEN HERITAGE POLICIES IN SCHIO (ITALY) AND VIERZON (FRANCE) This contribution inquires into heritage policies in European medium- and small-sized cities, through the cases of Schio (Italy) and Vierzon (France) and on the basis of available literature and data, as well as feld research carried out between May and November 2021. Despite signifcant differences in economic, demografc and political terms, which highlight a certain variety among medium sized cities as a category, Schio and Vierzon are both characterized by a relevant industrial heritage, which local authorities have sought to promote since the 1970s. Such heritage often appears compelled by regulations and fnancial limitations, as much as disputed between divergent concepts and perspectives. However, Schio and Vierzon’s similar size seems less relevant than their respective industrial history, heritage policies and evolving regulatory, fnancial and symbolic framework at various scales.

Abstract

HOW MARGINAL IS MEDIUM-SIZED CITIES’ INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE? A COMPARISON BETWEEN HERITAGE POLICIES IN SCHIO (ITALY) AND VIERZON (FRANCE) This contribution inquires into heritage policies in European medium- and small-sized cities, through the cases of Schio (Italy) and Vierzon (France) and on the basis of available literature and data, as well as feld research carried out between May and November 2021. Despite signifcant differences in economic, demografc and political terms, which highlight a certain variety among medium sized cities as a category, Schio and Vierzon are both characterized by a relevant industrial heritage, which local authorities have sought to promote since the 1970s. Such heritage often appears compelled by regulations and fnancial limitations, as much as disputed between divergent concepts and perspectives. However, Schio and Vierzon’s similar size seems less relevant than their respective industrial history, heritage policies and evolving regulatory, fnancial and symbolic framework at various scales.
