This book explores the advantages of a linear model of planning in
reducing regional inequalities. Linear planning, commonly discussed
in the past as a method which plans the development of the city, is
completely redefined here in the form of a design approach inspired
by projects shaped by linear routes, such as cycle or walking
paths. Such concept is applied to the urgent topic of territorial
marginality which specifically neglects rural and mountainous areas
and recently is coped by European and National policies. The
analysis of these policies demonstrates the necessity of
alternative strategies equipped to deal with both the internal and
external causes that determine the critical conditions in these
fragile environments. By implementing the concept of linear
planning in these contexts, this book proposes to enlarge the
perspective of traditional policies contrasting the regional
inequalities that usually determine the design of projects just
within the boundaries of the marginal areas. Cycle and walking
paths are experimental cases of linear planning as they have not
been influenced or formed by political boundaries and therefore are
able to equally involve both the central and marginal zones. This
book presents a review of current issues such as regional
inequalities, with attention to their related policies, as well as
an analysis of the concept of linear planning as seen through the
study of one of the most famous cases of a walking path—the Way
of St. James in Spain.
