Abstract
The contribution starts with the acceptance of the inadequacy of the Gross Domestic Produc (GPD) index for the appraisal of “fairness”, in consistency with the famous quote stated by Kennedy in (Speech at Kansas University, 8 May 1968); then it investigates the relationship that occurs between economics and religion, focusing on the content of Pope Francis’s encyclical “Laudato Si”. Finally, it proposes a resemantization of the paradigm of sustainability based on Pope Francis’ thought expressed in his encyclical “Laudato Si” for the valuation of interventions on buildings, infrastructures, cities and territories. This latter aims at reducing the large number of techniques developed by the scientific community to a more structured vision and, mostly, at translating them into a common language, in consistency with the content of the encyclical.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
