In some marginal contexts of Southern Italy, in light of specific economic, political and social conditions, certain relationships between ‘strong powers’ and ‘weak powers’ produce a suspension of norms/rights that is, paradoxically, ‘normalised’. This creates a particular spatial variation of Agamben’s (2005) state of exception concept: the ‘landscape of exception’. With respect to the possible conditions of ‘exception’, this article describes the ‘landscape of exception’ of the greenhouse system in South-Eastern Sicily. This ‘landscape of exception’ is generated by the greenhouses, in particular those dedicated to vegetable production, through an effective mechanism of spatial manipulation of the landscape and social control of migrant workers. In relation to these considerations, this work reflects on the ethical challenges and responsibilities of planning, highlighting (explicit and latent) conflicts and power inequalities in the ‘landscapes of exception’, where issues of environmental sustainability, social justice and the suspension of norms are closely intertwined.

在意大利南部的一些边缘地区，根据特定的经济，政治和社会条件，“强权”和“弱权”之间的某些关系产生了规范/权利的中止，这自相矛盾地是“规范化”。这创造了Agamben（2005）异常状态概念的特殊空间变化：“异常景观”。关于“例外”的可能条件，本文描述了西西里东南部温室系统的“例外景观”。这种“异常景观”是由温室（尤其是那些专门用于蔬菜生产的温室）通过有效地对景观进行空间操纵和对农民工进行社会控制而产生的。关于这些考虑因素，
