Due to the transformation of the economic structure and the intensification of the urbanization process, some factories that no longer meet the development needs of the urban age are forced to stop production and close down, and some factories and enterprises that have a role in promoting the development of the real economy have to move out of their original sites, resulting in a large number of unused Industrial legacy. Many industrial relics have high artistic value and are unique heritage in the city. However, most of the industrial heritage is facing the threat of fading, and the task of protecting industrial heritage is very urgent. Therefore, the revitalization of industrial heritage has become an important topic of urban research. At present, the revitalization of industrial heritage around the world has achieved certain results, but there are also many problems such as rigid model, cold management, low popularity, etc., leading to the crisis of lack of vitality in industrial heritage revitalization projects. To alleviate this problem, this thesis conducts research on industrial heritage revitalization strictly in accordance with actor network theory (ANT). ANT theory considers as actor both “human” and “non-human”, and emphasizes then role of human and non-human actors in explaining the outcome of social phenomena. ANT challenges many traditional approaches by defining nonhumans as actors equal to humans. It is hard to deny that in society or in any social activity and network, man is not the only factor or contributor; this is why this theory underlines the need to reconstruct the network of people, machines, animals, and any other objects. This coincides with the value concept of collaborative governance of multiple subjects in urban planning. Among them, translation is the construction process of the industrial heritage activation network, and it is also the key to the stability of the actor network. The translation process pays attention to the expression of the interests of each component of the network, including nonhuman actors, which can fully stimulate the initiative of each subject and promote the effective realization of the goal of industrial heritage activation. Secondly, according to the established industrial heritage activation actor network, our research divides the vitality of industrial heritage into four categories: Policy Vitality, Internal Vitality, External Vitality, and Eigenvalue Vitality, corresponding to the four main actors in the actor network. Then these four types of vitality are further decomposed to: establish an industrial heritage vitality evaluation system, use the questionnaire survey method to obtain the weight of the vitality evaluation factors, and use the SPSS social science statistical software to conduct scientific and systematic analysis and interpretation of the collected data. Finally, we selected the 1905 Cultural and Creative Industrial Park in Shenyang City, Liaoning Province, China as the research object, made a comprehensive evaluation of its vitality, and gave some suggestions for the revitalization of industrial heritage based on the evaluation results.
A causa della trasformazione della struttura economica e dell’intensificarsi del processo di urbanizzazione, alcune fabbriche che non rispondono più alle esigenze di sviluppo dell’era urbana sono costrette a cessare la produzione e chiudere, e alcune fabbriche e imprese che hanno un ruolo nella promozione della lo sviluppo dell’economia reale deve uscire dai suoi siti originari, con il risultato di un gran numero di eredità industriali. Molti cimeli industriali hanno un alto valore artistico e costituiscono un patrimonio unico in città. Tuttavia, la maggior parte del patrimonio industriale sta affrontando la minaccia di svanire e il compito di proteggere il patrimonio industriale è molto urgente. Pertanto, la rivitalizzazione del patrimonio industriale è diventata un tema importante della ricerca urbana. Attualmente, la rivitalizzazione del patrimonio industriale in tutto il mondo ha raggiunto alcuni risultati, ma ci sono anche molti problemi, come un modello rigido, una gestione fredda, una scarsa popolarità, ecc. Per alleviare questo problema, questa tesi conduce una ricerca sulla rivitalizzazione del patrimonio industriale utilizzando come approccio la teoria delle reti di attori (ANT, Actors Network Theory). La ANT considera allo stesso modo come componenti di un network sia attori “umani” sia attori “non umani” ed anzi enfatizza l’uguaglianza tra attori umani e non umani. In tal modo, la ANT sfida molti approcci tradizionali, definendo la componente non umana come attore uguali a quella umana. È difficile negare che nella società o in qualsiasi attività e rete sociale, l’uomo non è l’unico fattore o contributore, così che è importante considerare che le reti di attori come composte da persone, macchine, animali, e qualsiasi altro oggetto. Questo coincide con il concetto di valore della governance collaborativa di più soggetti nella pianificazione urbana. Tra questi, la traslazione è il processo di costruzione della rete di attivazione del patrimonio industriale ed è anche la chiave della stabilità della rete di attori. Il processo di traslazione presta attenzione all’espressione degli interessi di ciascun attore, compresi gli attori non umani, che possono stimolare pienamente l’iniziativa di ciascun soggetto e promuovere l’effettiva realizzazione dell’obiettivo dell’attivazione del patrimonio industriale. In secondo luogo, secondo la consolidata rete di attori di attivazione del patrimonio industriale, la nostra ricerca suddivide la vitalità del patrimonio industriale in quattro categorie: vitalità politica, vitalità interna, vitalità esterna e vitalità dell’autovalore, corrispondenti ai quattro attori principali della rete di attori. Quindi questi quattro tipi di vitalità sono stati ulteriormente scomposti e trattati al fine di: stabilire un sistema di valutazione della vitalità del patrimonio industriale, utilizzare il metodo di indagine del questionario per ottenere il peso dei fattori di valutazione della vitalità e utilizzare il software statistico di scienze sociali SPSS per condurre analisi e interpretazioni scientifiche e sistematiche dei dati raccolti. Infine, abbiamo selezionato il Parco industriale culturale e creativo ‘1905’ localizzato nella città di Shenyang, provincia di Liaoning (Cina) come oggetto di ricerca; abbiamo fatto una valutazione completa della sua vitalità e abbiamo dato alcuni suggerimenti per la rivitalizzazione del patrimonio industriale sulla base dei risultati della valutazione.

Abstract
Due to the transformation of the economic structure and the intensification of the urbanization process, some factories that no longer meet the development needs of the urban age are forced to stop production and close down, and some factories and enterprises that have a role in promoting the development of the real economy have to move out of their original sites, resulting in a large number of unused Industrial legacy. Many industrial relics have high artistic value and are unique heritage in the city. However, most of the industrial heritage is facing the threat of fading, and the task of protecting industrial heritage is very urgent. Therefore, the revitalization of industrial heritage has become an important topic of urban research. At present, the revitalization of industrial heritage around the world has achieved certain results, but there are also many problems such as rigid model, cold management, low popularity, etc., leading to the crisis of lack of vitality in industrial heritage revitalization projects. To alleviate this problem, this thesis conducts research on industrial heritage revitalization strictly in accordance with actor network theory (ANT). ANT theory considers as actor both “human” and “non-human”, and emphasizes then role of human and non-human actors in explaining the outcome of social phenomena.
