La storia dei terremoti in Italia è lunga e ricca di esperienza alle spalle. Citando brevemente la storia sismica italiana l'obiettivo è scoprire quali progressi sono stati appresi nel corso degli anni dagli ultimi casi nazionali e quali sono stati gli errori da evitare in futuro. Per questo motivo, il terremoto che sarà studiato a fondo è quello de L'Aquila da cui sono trascorsi dieci anni, è quindi possibile stimare i risultati della ricostruzione fisica ed economica della città. Lo scopo di questa tesi è di indagare, principalmente, dal punto di vista economico la (ri)crescita della città, quali politiche di emergenza sono state applicate e se sono stati previsti parametri di resilienza. Principalmente quali sono stati i danni alle aziende, in base ai contenuti di produzione, se e quali contributi ci sono stati per questi ultimi, indagando anche su quale sia stato l'impatto sulle infrastrutture. Le domande per le quali cercherò di dare una risposta sono diverse, concentrandomi principalmente sulle occasioni che il terremoto ha portato nell'area. La ricostruzione de L'Aquila è avvenuta solo pensando agli edifici e alla ricostruzione fisica della città o sono state pianificate soluzioni anche dal punto di vista economico, delle infrastrutture e dei servizi? Uno dei punti di forza della ricostruzione de L'Aquila è stato il Progetto CASE, in questo caso, ad esempio, non c'erano servizi inclusi in queste aree, si è mai pensato a contributi economici per questo aspetto? Sapendo che L'Aquila era già in declino economico prima del terremoto - anche a causa della crisi economica del 2008 - la città e l'economia del luogo hanno avuto l'opportunità di ricrescere? Ci sono stati incentivi affinché le aziende potessero tornare nel loro luogo di origine? Se ci sono stati questi incentivi, si è deciso di indirizzarli verso soluzioni sostenibili? È possibile ricostruire un business resiliente e riportare le persone lavorando sull'aspetto economico? Quali sono stati i vantaggi o gli svantaggi per un imprenditore locale? In conclusione, è possibili dire che la ricerca dei dati ufficiali, utili all'approccio economico, non è stata cosa semplice da effettuare e non ha portato a grandi risultati. Gli incentivi per le piccole e medie aziende sono arrivati principalmente nel 2018 e nell'anno corrente. La maggior parte del lavoro e delle idee sono state adottate per la ricostruzione della città e non senza diversi problemi.

Abstract
Italy’s earthquake history is a long one, rich of experience behind. Citing briefly the Italian seismic history the goal is to find out what progresses have been learned over the years, what has been learned from the latest Italian cases and which one were the mistakes to be avoided in the future. For this reason, the earthquake that will be studied deeply is the one of L’Aquila. Ten years have passed since the earthquake in L'Aquila, so it is possible to estimate the results of the physical and economic reconstruction of the city. The purpose of this thesis is to be able to investigate, mostly, from the economic point of view the (re)growth of the city, which emergency policies have been applied and whether resilience parameters have been foreseen. Mainly what were the damages to the companies, based on the production contents, if and what contributions were there for the latter, also investigating what was the impact on the infrastructures. Through this thesis the questions for which I will try to give an answer are different focusing mainly on the occasions that the earthquake has brought to the area. Has the reconstruction of L’Aquila taken place only thinking about the buildings and the physical reconstruction of the city or have solutions been planned also from an economic, infrastructure and service point of view? One of the strengths of the reconstruction of L'Aquila was the CASE Project, in this case, for example, there were no services included in these areas, were any economic contributions designed for this aspect? Knowing that L'Aquila was already in economic decline even before the earthquake - also due to the economic crisis of 2008 - have the city and the local economy of the place had the opportunity to regrow? Were there incentives for companies to be able to return to their place of origin? If there have been these incentives, have we decided to direct them towards sustainable solutions? Is it possible to rebuild a resilient business and bring people back in by working on the economic aspect? What were the advantages or disadvantages for a local entrepreneur? In conclusion, it is possible to say that the research for official data, useful for the economic approach, was not an easy thing to do and did not lead to great results. The incentives for small and medium-sized companies came mainly in 2018 and in the current year. Most of the work and ideas have been adopted for the reconstruction of the city and not without various problems.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
