Abstract

This study presents a novel methodological framework for analyzing circular economy potential in historic small towns, using Taurasi as an illustrative case to demonstrate framework applicability rather than providing a comprehensive quantitative assessment. The primary contribution is methodological: developing an integrated analytical framework that combines urban metabolism analysis, stakeholder engagement theory, and heritage preservation strategies. The framework addresses the specific challenges of implementing circular economy principles in heritage-rich contexts where traditional data collection methods may be insufficient. This research provides a replicable methodology for future comprehensive empirical studies in similar contexts.
