Abstract

In Belice Valley, in 1968, after the earthquake, due to the generally poor life conditions, people losing their homes, and a rather not very present State, popular mobilisation was the choice. In the post-earthquake reconstruction, the self-organisation process came back in vogue due to the previous example of Danilo Dolci's action in western Sicily, during the fifties. The Mayor Ludovico Corrao also referred to the revolutionary roots of Dolci's movement, including those values in his dream of city's rebirth, involved inhabitants, artists, and architects to "make the town".
