Nonprofit Landlord Types on the Housing Market—A Key to Rising Displacement in Berlin
Displacement research emphasizes the importance of housing market processes and their consequences for tenants.In recent years, a lively discussion in housing studies has emerged around policy mechanisms to promote permanently decommodified housing and nonprofit landlord types.This article picks up on the two strands of research and links them to our own empirical material from two studies on the city of Berlin that respond to two questions: (a) …
Towards a regional geography of health
This article aims to show how a geographically informed concept of social innovation can contribute to current debates on both the health and care crisis in peripheral regions and on Planetary Health. It does so by highlighting social resources and novel governance arrangements emerging within the care sector. In this way, it supports the formation and organisation of coalitions that enable or strengthen care work. Our argument builds on selected…
Assessing displacement in a tight housing market
Displacement from one’s home is a contested issue, not only in actual urban politics but also in urban research. Empirical studies rely on rather different notions of displacement, which makes a coherent picture of the phenomenon difficult to obtain. In this article, we first deal with the conceptual ambiguities in the debate on displacement so as to carve out an empirically viable definition of direct displacement that focuses on the decision-ma…
Migrant Economies Beyond Metropolitan Cities
Research has highly valued the contribution of migrant economies to the development of mainly top‐scale metropolises. Migrant economies are considered a crucial asset when it comes to positioning cities internationally, revitalising neighbourhoods and generally securing the social, economic and political inclusion of migrants. Nevertheless, there is a major research gap in empirical evidence on migrant economies beyond metropolitan cities and the…
"Migrantische Ökonomien zwischen Potentialorientierung und Differenzmarkierung. Konzeption und Erträge eines „prä-postmigrantischen" Forschungsgegenstands
In public discourse, issues of migration and immigration were for a long time perceived "only" as an integration problem. Nevertheless, a potential-oriented view of migration has been postulated recently and also implemented in practice. Thus, especially in large cities, various political programmes have been adopted that aim at commodifying the potential of migrant economies for urban development. This potential-oriented perspective is, however,…
Concurring urbanizations? Understanding the simultaneity of sub- and re-urbanization trends with the help of migration figures in Berlin
Most classical models of urban development conceptualize suburbanization and reurbanization as opposing processes of in-and out-migration. The article at hand starts from the understanding that this linear interpretation of migration figures falls short of the mark. Drawing on different approaches to op-erationalize reurbanization, case-specific migration-data from Berlin illustrates a population development where decline and revival do not exclu…
Urban Policy and Spatial Planning in a Globalized City—A Stakeholder View of Santiago de Chile
Taking Santiago de Chile as an example, this practice review explores urban policy-making and spatial planning in a globalized city. Based on an empirical study, it presents insights into the experiences, observations and recommendations of urban development stakeholders from the public, private and civil society sectors. First of all, the article highlights the main characteristics of public policies and spatial planning in Santiago as well as t…
Privatization of the Fringes — A Latin American Version of Post-suburbia? The Case of Santiago de Chile
Latin America is one of the most urbanized regions worldwide (UN, 2008). Urban expansion and suburbanization are well-established and common phenomena, particularly in the larger agglomerations and megacities in the region. However, the profound social, ecological and economic implications of these processes have only recently — with some delay in comparison to the United States (US) or Europe — started to become a major concern of urban analysts…
Fresh Wind or Hot Air—Does the Governance Discourse Have Something to Offer to Spatial Planning
Governance is broadly speaking about the regulation of publicly relevant affairs. In this respect, spatial planning is certainly a part of governance. This article explores whether spatial planning can benefit from the rich debates that have evolved around the governance concept. It provides an overview of the principal variants of the governance concept and discusses their potential implications for planning. Using a concrete planning case, the …
Dispersión urbana y nuevos desafíos para la gobernanza (metropolitana) en América Latina
Massive expansion of urban areas is not a new experience to Latin American cities. However, the profound social, ecological and economic implications of urban sprawl are only today starting to become a major concern in the continent's big agglomerations. By taking Santiago de Chile as an example this paper discusses the challenges posed to urban governance by urban sprawl. It fi rst summarizes recent trends in residential housing production where…

Decline and sprawl
Much of the empirical research on urban sprawl has been carried out in North America and most theoretical studies on this problem have been concerned with expanding urban areas. This study differs, firstly in that it is concerned with sprawl in two European cities, Liverpool in England and Leipzig in Germany, and secondly because both these cities are in decline. This presents an opportunity to explore whether the process of urban sprawl is someh…
The ‘production’ of urban sprawl in eastern Germany as a phenomenon of post-socialist transformation
Trust in a ‘Post-Socialist Region’
As trust is essential for close mutual cooperation, trust between entrepreneurs running SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) has been increasingly acknowledged as an important factor in regional economic development. However, one of the main problems of post-socialist economies is that the increased need for entrepreneurial trust is thwarted by conditions discouraging the creation of trust. In order to investigate this problem, an empirical …
Vertrauen — Kooperation — Netzwerkbildung
Das Buch gibt einen regional- und unternehmenssoziologischen Einblick in die Transformationswerkstatt ostdeutscher und polnischer Unternehmensgründer im klein- und mittelständischen Wirtschaftssegment. Umfassende Interviews und Fallstudien in verschiedenen Branchen (Informationstechnik, Bau, Textil) bilden das anschauliche Material, an Hand dessen kognitive und biografische Ressourcen für die Herstellung von Vertrauensbeziehungen, Kooperationen u…
Bausteine des Vertrauens — eine Begriffsanalyse
Weiterbildung und „regionale Lernprozesse”
The notion of the „Learning Region” refers to the question whether „life long learning” could foster regional development. This is, however, seldom acknowledged in recent literature. Hence, the presented paper summarises different arguments that could he put forward to prove how important adult education is for the Performance of regions. Consequently, the „Learning Region” will beneflt from adult education as well, because the latter is not only…
