Abstract

Thanks to its pedoclimatic pre-conditions and the great anthropogenic modification of the natural environment of the coastal plain due to the integral reclamation (1930-1950), the territory of the Sibari plain (CS), within a few decades, from marshy and malarial, has turned into one of the most valuable area of citrus production. It is here that the 50% of the total Italian production of clementines is produced (Ismea, 2016). The study of the clementinization of the Sibari plain, in this case, is an expedient to understand how and in what way, the territorialization processes in the specific place and in the long run, have been useful in building social capital. Moreover, the role that the specific social capital plays in the citrus economy of the Plain, especially in building cooperative networks for citrus marketing.
