The landscape reflects the free creative action of Man upon nature. The human action aims at beautifying nature, as well as exploring the usefulness of the landscape Introduction Ethics Aesthetics Landscape

Agricultural practice within the urban space is a way to establish a relationship between production, protection and recreation. It’s a central activity if we consider the energy and food crisis present in our daily lives (with the expectation of an increase on both items in the near future) Why study allotment gardens?

Considering the idea of space as a vital experience crucial in the concept of landscape it is our aim to address, ethically and aesthetically, allotment gardens as a space of the landscape including that living experience (even from an observer’s point of view). Objectives

According to Ferriolo (2002), Landscape is an ethical reality, field of action, space of associated human life: it is a possible reality of resolutions and transformations. Its essence belongs to practical philosophy, so to ethics. Allotment gardens, as any other landscape are also an ethical reality. Why are allotment gardens an ethic reality?
