Strategic Participatory Planning and Social Management for Clustering Maritime Cultural Heritage
Maritime cultural heritage (MCH) in Greece remains poorly explored and underutilized due to several key challenges, including the dispersed locations of heritage sites, limited community engagement in decision-making, and the absence of a well-structured decentralized governance framework. This paper addresses these issues by focusing on strategic planning and social management to better integrate coastal and maritime heritage sites into both tou…
Mechanism for the Optimal Location of a Business as a Lever for the Development of the Economic Strength and Resilience of a City
Today, the location of a business is more important than ever, as it contributes to its consolidation in the market and, in parallel, to the economic development of a city. Over the years, the theories about the optimal location of a business have undergone various changes, both financial and spatial. On the other hand, economic geography, as a discipline that studies the distribution of economic activities as well as the interactions between the…
Post-industrial Trajectories of Mediterranean European Cities
This paper deals with clusters of post-industrial urban economies and their impacts on the spatial restructuring and the relandscaping of the contemporary inner city. It investigates such impacts by studying recent economic, spatial and landscape transformations of Athens, a large Mediterranean city in the geographical and economic periphery of Europe. The first part of the paper reviews earlier research on clusters of post-industrial urban econo…
Dialogues in Urban and Regional Planning
This chapter examines landscape transformations in the post-industrial city. It attempts to portray, classify and understand the emerging landscapes in terms of land- use patterns, urban morphology and density. It is argued that the locational trends of flourishing post- industrial economic activities, along with the development of new urban governance strategies, tend to rearrange the landscapes of the postmodern city. The inner city is dominate…

Urban morphology and place identity in European cities
In the processes of economic and cultural globalization, European integration and the blur of national identities in Europe, place identity emerges as a central concern of both scholars and other people. This paper examines the ways specific aspects of urban morphology such as built heritage and the innovative design of space may contribute to place identity in European cities. First, it develops a theoretical conjecture that in post‐modern multi…
Glocalising” urban landscapes
European Cities in Competition and the New ' Uses ' of Urban Design
Throughout the history of urban forms, major urban design schemes and avant-garde design of space have been mostly an outcome of economic growth of cities and countries. Marking the era of globalization, a reverse procedure has taken place in the last decade or so; urban design appears to be consciously 'used' as a means of economic development of cities in the new competitive milieu. This paper seeks to investigate the new role of urban design i…
