Abstract
The history of Venice is specifically the history of a successful management of a complex environment, that required the lagoon community to exercise a perennial demiurgic tension that deeply influenced its mentality, its social cohesion, its governmental culture and its public spirit. One can see traces of the above-mentioned on a more general level, in the ability of the Venetian community to maintain a geopolitical position of the city that has a long-standing and complete exploitation of its potential, even beyond its very power: the centrality between East and West.
