In order to verify the potential use of old transhumance routes as tourist resource, the paper intends to illustrate a methodology to assess their conservation state, both in terms of track accessibility and viability, as well as in terms of heritage presence, and shows the results of a survey conducted on the Castel di Sangro -Lucera route (Molise region, Southern Italy). The methodology proposed represents a first step for integrated tourism planning as to the old transhumance routes in Southern Italy, starting from the digitization of the Custom Office historic maps and continuing on through an urgently needed program of conservation and restoration of the tracks supported by cartography and satellite imagery techniques.

Senegalese Associationism in Italy: Social Practices and Territorialisation Dynamics. The article focuses on Senegalese associations in Italy, trying to identify the territorial factors that influenced its evolution, in particular the development of new projects and stronger, multi-located and institutionally recognized relational networks. The survey conducted in different Italian contexts brought out a diversified geography of Senegalese associations which offers some consideration about the possibility of considering these associations as real agents of territorial development, both in territories of origin than in those of destination, as well as evaluating the role that local policies, in the field of inter-culture, can play in encouraging the active participation of these organizations in local public life and in strengthening the territorial social capital.
