Abstract [en]

Local resistance to controversial land uses is a common phenomenon occurring with increasing regularity in all democ-ratic countries. However, little is known at present about cognitive reactions to perceived injustice in such conflicts. Using as case study the Italian movement against the High Speed Railway (HSR), I performed two qualitative studies. In Study 1 content analysis revealed that ac-tivists perceived as unfair the outcomes, the procedures and the interactions with the decision-making agents and showed dietrological information processes. In Study 2 the results from Study 1 were confirmed and paranoid-like modes of misperception and misjudgement were identified. Limits and implications of this research are discussed.

Abstract [it]

La resistencia local en contra de los con-trovertidos usos del territorio es un fenó-meno común que se encuentra con una creciente regularidad en todos los países democráticos. No obstante, en este mo-mento, no se conocen muy bien las reac-ciones cognitivas a la percepción de in-justicia en este tipo de conflicto. A partir del estudio sobre el movimiento italiano contra las líneas de tren de alta velocidad, (LULU) se presentan dos estudios cualita-tivos. En el primero, el análisis de conte-nido muestra que los activistas percibie-ron las consecuencias, los procedimientos y las interacciones con los agentes que toman las decisiones como injustas y mostraron un proceso de información dietrológico. En el segundo se confirman los resultados del primero y se identifican modalidades parecidas de percepción. Por último, se plantean las implicaciones y limitaciones de la investigación realiza.
