The new image of home
Residential high-rise buildings for the middle–upper middle-class population are increasingly prevalent in many parts of the world as part of the general vertical expansion of cities. This paper examines the new image of home that is associated with this housing typology, as evidenced by the marketing campaigns of new residential large urban developments in Israel. A qualitative and quantitative analysis of 50 marketing campaigns identified five …
Difficulties for Theorisation Within Planning Research and Practice – An Exploration of Key Dimensions of Planning Theories
The contribution by Benjamin Davy, Agnes Förster and Edward Shepherd sheds light on normative conflicts and the foundations of spatial planning in theories and practice. Here, the challenge of theorising lies in moving beyond individual moral-ethical positions. Instead of just referring to one set of individual planning ethics, the authors engage to reflect fundamentally on how planners can make clashing normative values visible and negotiable. T…

The digital power of the tower
Residential large urban developments are the dominant mode of housing development in many cities around the world. They introduce new technologies to the residential setting that reshape the dwelling experience. Using digital ethnography and in-depth interviews with residents of three residential large urban developments at the center of Israel, this paper portrays how the digital dimension is embedded in and reshapes the performance and experien…
The new urban neighbor
The problem of “power” in planning theory
Urban space of recognition
This paper examines urban design from the socio-political concept of recognition and formulates a framework of urban space of recognition. It aims to illuminate principles of urban design that enhance the recognition of misrecognized groups in public space. Based on an analysis of a public space shared by Arabs and Jews in the mixed city of Haifa, Israel, it proposes that the framework of urban space of recognition rests upon the visual display o…
The failure of urban forms under the Covid-19 epidemic
The outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic and the resulting mandatory socio-spatial practices trigger and pose some critical questions on the prevailing conventions of spatial planning approaches and the ways they shape our cities Most salient in this regard, though not exclusive, are the dominant planning approaches and movements of recent decades, such as New Urbanism and the various sustainability-related spatial-planning paradigms These approa…
Residential coexistence
This paper offers a new perspective on everyday life in an ethno-nationally mixed vertical urban setting. It focuses on the cultivation of a shared residential identity that, seemingly, can overcome the binational divide. Drawing on interviews with Jewish and Arab residents in a new middle-class high-rise complex (HRC) in Haifa, Israel, we illustrate that Arabs and Jews share many reasons for living in the HRC, reflecting similarities between the…
Theorizing urban social spaces and their interrelations
This paper proposes a new theoretical perspective for understanding urban social spaces and their interrelations. In an effort to understand these multifaceted, complex relations, an inquiry committed to a flat ontology was deployed. Accordingly, we draw our theorization on the Lacanian ontological lack, Harman’s object-oriented ontology, and Laclau and Mouffe’s discursivity of social reality. Thus, we propose that urban social spaces are discurs…
Planning by Scale
This article suggests that the domination of the scale of the neighborhood in planning distorts our understanding of urban phenomena and that a multiscalar approach is required. It examines the association of perceived scales with residential satisfaction. The findings suggest that the neighborhood is not the dominant scale with which people perceive and define their residential area, rather they consider smaller than the neighborhood scales. Mor…
Critical pedagogy for the new planner
Experiencing vertical living
This article argues that high-rise residential projects—a dominant form of contemporary cities—are playing a pivotal role in generating new urban experience for city dwellers. Drawing on an affect-based research approach, we empirically examine high-rise residential projects built from 1998 to 2016 in two medium-size cities in central Israel. We address three moments of new affective experience of residents: (1) the view and the practice of viewi…
Patterns of self-organization in the context of urban planning
This article unpacks the relations that exist between the planning institution and urban residents by examining processes of self-organization in planning. Approaching self-organization with the lens of assemblage, the article proposes three categories or patterns of self-organization of different urban actors and portrays how they act in different forms to induce urban change. The three self-organization categories are as follows: (1) self-organ…
Social Sustainability
There is a lack of theoretical and empirical studies regarding social sustainability. The literature reveals that the “social” was integrated late into debates on sustainable development. This paper aims to fill this gap and proposes a new conceptual framework of social sustainability. We suggest that risk is a constitutive concept of sustainability and that the contemporary conditions of risk resulting primarily from climate change and its ensui…
Getting to Know a Place
The literature on environmental walkability to date has mainly focused on walking and related health outcomes. While previous studies suggest associations between walking and spatial knowledge, the associations between environmental walkability and spatial knowledge is yet to be explored. The current study addresses this lacuna in research by exploring children's mental representations of their home-school (h-s) route, vis
Back to the (Visualization) Laboratory
This article introduces the immersive focus group as a mixed-methods approach in planning research. Using the immersive focus group we generate genuine knowledge of both quantitative and qualitative data about the diverse and nuanced perceptions of forest landscapes in order to then extract planning decisions. The article elaborates on the deployment of focus groups in a particular venue: the immersive theater laboratory. In doing so, we hope to …
Conceptualizing urban ontological security
Planning with communities in regeneration projects
This article explores the central role that gender plays across a variety of scales in the development of civic capacity among residents of Meonot-Yam neighborhood in Bat-Yam, Israel. The article proposes a new, gendered reading of civic capacity which involves transforming women’s and men’s ways of thinking and acting out of the ordinary in this regeneration project, with the aim of updating and revising the term as related to planning with comm…

Reconstructing urban image through cultural flagship events
Actually Existing Commons
This paper analyzes an urban space that functions, it is argued, as the commons in the neoliberal city. The space of community gardens in New York City is “unpacked” according to three Lefebvrian moments of space: the material space, representations of space, and the lived space. Engaging alternative conceptualizations of social relations in the urban space, it complicates and explicates the notion of the commons and its actually existing manifes…
The Changing Meaning of Community Space
This article examines two different models of space management, devised by NGOs to confront the marketization of public space in New York City through privatizing the land of community gardens. The Trust for Public Land promotes a model that emphasizes community ownership, while the New York Restoration Project promotes a model that emphasizes the preservation of land. The article compares the two models of NGO management of community gardens par…
