As part of the wider research program initiated by de Rosa in the 1980s (cfr inter alia: de Rosa,
1995, 1997, 2013; de Rosa, Antonelli & Calogero, 1995) on “Place-identity and Social
Representations of European Capitals in First Visitors of Six Different Nationalities”, this

Prendendo spunto dall’analisi della letteratura scientifica, dai dati di ri-cerca forniti da fonti secondarie, dal monitoraggio della programmazione televisiva e dalle suggestioni offerte dall’ambito della pubblicità e del marketing (apparentemente lontano, di fatto particolarmente affine sul piano delle strategie simboliche), il contributo si propone di arrivare a ri-baltare le regole della narrazione dei fatti terroristici, immaginando inedite strategie di restituzione e persino di contronarrazione degli stessi eventi drammatici che possano garantire un diverso empowerment del soggetto, a

Il presente contributo si propone di arrivare a ribaltare le regole della narrazione dei fatti terroristici, immaginando inedite strategie di restituzione e persino di contronarrazione degli stessi eventi drammatici. Strategie che possano garantire un diverso empowerment del soggetto, attenuando i decibel della paura e facendo della fiducia e della conoscenza rinnovate piattaforme di solidarietà e di sicurezza.
