Introduction to the SI
The COVID-19 pandemic constituted a profound disruption to urban life worldwide, sharply altering social practices, economic activity and demographic dynamics. While many studies have examined specific short-term consequences of the pandemic, comparatively little attention has been paid to how its effects interacted with other simultaneously unfolding crises and how disruptions might translate into permanent effects, embedded into a larger system…
Reclaiming Disruption
Disruptions increasingly constitute urban futures by interrupting established trajectories and influencing how cities are imagined, planned, and realised. This article challenges the prevailing assumption that urban disruption merely produces social fragmentation and catastrophic futures, positioning it instead as a catalyst for progressive urban transformation. Although disruption is widely discussed across politics, management, technology, and …
Reframing the Nexus Between Forced Migration and Urban Resilience
The relationship between forced migration and urban resilience is an under‐researched topic within both the local resilience and migration discourses. While discussions tend to focus on institutional and psychological resilience, we argue that forced migration should be considered a systemic component of urban resilience and the future of cities. As resilience is currently understood in many different ways, even in contrasting ways, we contend th…
Refugees as Urban Stakeholders
This article examines how reception and participation practices shape urban futures in Berlin and Leipzig, highlighting Ukrainian refugees as agents of urban change. We adopt a comparative approach to summarise and re‐analyse research carried out in several projects on the two cities. Through the lens of urban citizenship, we explore how civic engagement and participation among refugees can facilitate dialogue among urban stakeholders and support…
Not Just Shrinkage
While the existence of marginalized or left‐behind places is not a new phenomenon, both marginalization and socio‐economic, spatial, and political polarization have accelerated over the past decades as a central effect of neoliberal globalization, and in the case of eastern Germany, the process of German unification in that context. Economic marginalization, widely seen by those marginalized as driven by national and transnational elites, has led…
Greening cities while feeding injustices? Discussing the urban greening paradox
Urban greening has become a central pillar of contemporary sustainability agendas, promoted for its contributions to environmental performance, climate resilience and quality of life. Yet critical research shows that these interventions often generate inequitable outcomes: producing exclusions, displacement and affordability pressures that contradict their inclusive sustainability rhetoric. As a conceptual debate contribution, this article offers…
Understanding housing market challenges and barriers for the integration of forced migrants
This paper explores the challenges and barriers of forced migrants at the nexus of housing and social integration, presenting the outcomes of an international and interdisciplinary collaboration funded by the JPI Urban Europe programme. Research includes the case study cities Leipzig, Lund, Riga, and Vienna, utilizing primary and secondary data in a transdisciplinary process involving theoretical discussions and urban living labs with researchers…
Migrant housing struggle and racial discrimination
The civic mobilisation welcoming Ukrainian refugees after Russia’s invasion in February 2022 has shown how housing is a social infrastructure based on care and solidarity. But it has also shown its discriminatory face. By drawing on our recent collaborative research in Leipzig and Riga and conceptual reflections from previous research, this paper elaborates on how practices of welcoming and housing refugees intertwine with state racism and everyd…
Housing refugees from Ukraine
The Russian war of aggression against Ukraine caused an escape of >7 million people to other European countries. In this extreme context, the accommodation of refugees has been an urgent need and an unexpected challenge for the host cities and societies. This short paper discusses insights and learnings on housing and accommodation of Ukraine war refugees at the local scale. It summarises challenges within the general management of (housing) inte…
The (co-)production of arrival neighbourhoods. Processes governing housing markets in three german cities
In recent years, an emerging strand of research has focused on the role arrival neighbourhoods play for newcomers finding their footing in a new urban context. However, little is known about the underlying factors and drivers influencing their function(ing). This concerns in particular the role of the local housing market and its players in shaping their emergence and development. The paper deals with the question of how arrival neighbourhoods ar…
Science under pressure
In this comment, we scrutinize how research is being challenged by the 2030 Agenda and what may be required for research to contribute to transformative change toward sustainability. Building on the current debate and state of knowledge, we argue that we need a stronger engagement with norms and values within science. Conflicting goals, values and visions need to be made explicit and taken into account in the (co-)production of knowledge in a tra…
The permanent regime of temporary solutions
Periods of forced migration to and in Europe have been common in the past decade and show no expectation of stalling due to ongoing armed conflicts, global inequalities and the adverse effects of climate change. Nevertheless, the provision of accommodation for asylum seekers and refugees continues to depend on temporary, ad hoc solutions. In the context of housing financialisation and shortage of affordable housing across European cities, this de…
Access to urban green spaces in Hannover
City dwellers' accessibility of urban green spaces (UGS) has recently gained immense interest in research and policy. Related scientific studies thus far have focused primarily on spatial distances, largely missing considerations of UGS qualities. We analysed the entire UGS setting of Hannover considering the recreational nature quality and potential demands to identify age-appropriate green spaces by applying a geographic information system anal…
Refugee migration from Ukraine to other parts of Europe
In the context of the massive refugee influx from Ukraine to its European neighbouring states over the last months, this update reflects on the experiences of two international exchanges led by HOUSE-IN: a JPI Urban Europe-funded project that deals with challenges at the housing-integration nexus. The exchanges revealed the impacts of this forced migration at the intersection of housing and integration in several European cities. The update analy…
Shifting spatial patterns in German population trends
The population development of German municipalities is characterized by pronounced regional disparities. We seek to shed new light on the shifting patterns of population development in Germany at the local level between 1990 and 2019 to understand better the drivers of population development at the local level and to initiate a debate on the (dis)advantages of longitudinal analyses of population change at the local level and the resulting methodo…

Visions for development and management of urban green and blue infrastructure
Ongoing urbanization leads to problems such as densification, loss of biodiversity, and social injustice in cities. For increasing urban populations, green–blue infrastructure (GBI) is an important element in compact cities contributing to human health, well-being, and the provision of important ecosystem services. We analyzed responses from two open-ended questions about visions, ideas, and topics for the development and management of GBI import…
Konflikte als Hoffnungsträger. Auseinandersetzungen um die postmigrantische Stadtgesellschaft
Aktuell werden Konflikte in der Migrationsdebatte neu bewertet. So wird ihr vermehrtes Auftreten als Zeichen für „gelingende Integration“ interpretiert. Konflikte sind hier als das Verbindungsband konzipiert, das offene, plurale Gesellschaften zusammenhalten kann. Zugetraut wird den Konflikten auch, dass sie einen Stimulus setzen für die demokratische Weiterentwicklung der als postmigrantisch bezeichneten Gesellschaft. Unser Artikel betrachtet in…
Making the Covid-19 crisis a real opportunity for environmental sustainability
An optimistic narrative has gained momentum during the first year of the pandemic: the COVID-19 crisis may have opened a window of opportunity to "rebuild better", to spur societal transitions towards environmental sustainability. In this comment, we review first evidence of individual and political changes made so far. Findings suggest that economies worldwide are not yet building back better. Against this background, we argue that a naïve oppor…
How the Covid-19 pandemic impacts social scientific research on sustainability
In a highly relevant contribution, Santana et al. (2021) outlined the challenges for qualitative enquiries during the pandemic. We agree that overcoming these challenges is very important since qualitative research is vital for understanding both the impacts of COVID-19 on human communities around the globe and its significance for sustainable futures. However, we argue that a more fundamental approach is needed to address problems within scienti…
Contextualizing small towns – trends of demographic spatial development in Germany 1961–2018
For the past ten years, the growth debate has been urban-centric, at least in Germany, while rural areas have been largely associated with depopulation. Despite their importance, small towns fall into a systematic perception gap in scientific and planning discourses. Against this background, this paper applies a threefold conceptualization of scalar relations paying analytical attention to (1) population trajectories, (2) the relation of spatial …
Factors driving the regrowth of European cities and the role of local and contextual impacts
This paper undertakes a comparison of two regrowing and two shrinking European cities in order to identify the factors driving demographic regrowth and economic recovery of cities and how and why those factors are at work in some cities that turned from population decline towards new growth while others did not. Our objectives are to systematically elaborate the factors that are influencing urban regrowth, explain how these factors interact and a…
Regionalentwicklung in Ostdeutschland – die humangeographische Perspektive
Der von Sören Becker und Matthias Naumann herausgegebene Band bietet einen breiten Überblick über die Entwicklung und aktuelle Lage in Ostdeutschland aus einer raumbezogenen und rauminteressierten Perspektive. Im Fokus der 38 Beiträge steht die humangeographische Perspektive. Der Band bietet eine Diagnose zum aktuellen Status Quo sowie zu Entwicklungen in Ostdeutschland in den vergangenen 30 Jahren
Leipzig’s Inner East as an Arrival Space? Exploring the Trajectory of a Diversifying Neighbourhood
The article analyses and discusses the development of Leipzig and especially its inner east as an ‘urban space of arrival’ since 1990. It represents a study about arrival in the post-socialist context that is fairly rare in the international debate so far, since most of the arrival debate builds on western European evidence. Leipzig’s inner east was characterised by shrinkage until the end of the 1990s and by new growth, especially after 2010, as…
Varieties of shrinkage in European cities
The issue of urban shrinkage has become the new ‘normal’ across Europe: a large number of urban areas find themselves amongst the cities losing population. According to recent studies, almost 42 per cent of all large European cities are currently shrinking. In eastern Europe, shrinking cities have formed the overwhelming majority – here, three out of four cities report a decrease in population. Shrinkage has proved to be a very diverse and comple…
Conceptualizing Urban Shrinkage
Since the second half of the 20th century, urban shrinkage has become a common pathway of transformation for many large cities across the globe. Although the appearance of shrinkage is fairly universal-typically manifested in dwindling population, emerging vacant spaces, and the underuse of existing urban infrastructure, ranging from schools and parks to water pipelines-its essence is hidden from view. Phenomena related to shrinkage have been dis…
Greening cities – To be socially inclusive? About the alleged paradox of society and ecology in cities
Shrinking cities
Splintering Urban Populations
During the last three decades, the countries of the developed world have been engulfed by the 'second demographic transition', which involves new family relations, less and later marriage, declining fertility rates, population ageing, postponement of child-bearing and smaller households, among other trends. It is being increasingly argued that such population dynamics are having a powerful transformative effect on the inner city, by diversifying …
Emergent spaces of reurbanisation
European inner city areas are increasingly regaining their residential attractiveness after years of decline. Although the demographic dimensions of such residential shifts are gradually being acknowledged by urban scholars, they still remain under‐researched, especially with regard to the role of household‐driven processes in the stabilisation of inner‐city neighbourhoods and the reshaping of residential perceptions, wants and needs. Given this …
The shrinking city in comparative perspective
Demographic change as a future challenge for cities in east central europe
Contemporary cities in East Central Europe (ECE) represent a hybrid type of urban development which is still generally considered to be a special case and is only exceptionally referred to in the recently intensified debate over the European city. Our paper argues that such exclusion is short‐sighted because ECE cities face structural problems similar to those of their Western pendants. Therefore, the contextual frame of urban research needs to b…
Environmental justice in the context of urban green space availability, accessibility, and attractiveness in postsocialist cities
This article aims to position postsocialist cities in Central and Eastern Europe in the broader debate on urban environmental justice. The article crosscuts through all three dimensions of justice (distributive/distributional, procedural/participatory, and interactional/recognition) in the context of urban green and blue space provision. Environmental justice is still an emerging topic in postsocialist cities, constrained by market-orientation an…
Evolving Reurbanisation? Spatio-temporal Dynamics as Exemplified by the East German City of Leipzig
After a decade of tremendous population loss indicating severe decline, some large east German cities have been displaying signs of reurbanisation since the late 1990s. Using the city of Leipzig as an example, this paper identifies the major characteristics, progress and underlying spatio-temporal dynamics of reurbanisation, and examines whether it is a long-term process of urban living or features only short-term tendencies. Socio-demographic in…
Shrinking Cities in Post‐socialist Europe
In the final decades of the twentieth century, the post‐industrial regions of western Europe and the US were hot‐spots of urban shrinkage, and this also affected large areas in post‐socialist countries. Despite ongoing calls for a better integration of diverse global urban experiences into theorization, post‐socialist cities and their trajectories, as well as their experiences with rapid urban change, have been largely disregarded in general theo…

Urban shrinkage as an emerging concern for European policymaking
Across Europe, urban shrinkage has become an important phenomenon. According to recent studies, almost 42 % of all large European cities are currently shrinking, the largest number of them being situated in Eastern Europe. Across Europe, shrinkage affects all types of regions; in a way, Europe has become a shrinking continent. Shrinkage is not only a problem of larger cities, but has, in fact, become one of several pathways for European urban and…
Representing urban shrinkage — The importance of discourse as a frame for understanding conditions and policy
The influence of housing oversupply on residential segregation
In this article, we contribute to a better understanding of contextual differences related to residential segregation. We illuminate one specific contextual factor—housing oversupply—and how it intersects with historically inherited patterns of socio-spatial differentiation and other drivers of residential segregation. The study is based on an analysis of how segregation has developed over the last 20 years in the city of Leipzig, Germany. This c…
Population Decline in Polish and Czech Cities during Post-socialism? Looking Behind the Official Statistics
The evolving debate on ‘urban shrinkage’ mirrors an increasing interest in demographic phenomena on the part of urban scholars. This paper discusses ambiguous evidence about recent population decline in the large cities of Poland and the Czech Republic, with a particular focus on Łódz and Brno in general and their inner cities more specifically. By applying a mixed-method approach, the paper identifies indications of inner-city repopulation and s…

Neighborhood change beyond clear storylines
Neighborhood research today is largely concerned with two central aspects of neighborhood development: gentrification and decline. This paper sets out to enrich the discourse on neighborhood change, especially that concerned with so-called declining neighborhoods, by drawing on assemblage and complexity theories. These approaches emphasize processes, interdependencies, uncertainties, surprising shifts, and feedback loops in the production of spec…
Household Structure, Migration Trends, and Residential Preferences in Inner-city León, Spain
This study examines the changing demography of the Spanish city of León, and aims to explore the manner in which its urban fabric was reshaped by processes of reurbanization, a dynamic whereby the inner city becomes more attractive to a wide variety of household types and social groups. We draw on sociodemographic analyses of municipal census data, as well as a customized questionnaire survey of local residents. Empirical evidence is provided bot…

Urban Population Development in Europe, 1991–2008
Across Europe, there is a complex mosaic of urban population development. Characterized by great diversity and heterogeneity, this development does not follow a common pattern and cannot be attributed to specific regional trends (e.g. Eastern or Western European geographic location, or post‐socialist, old industrial or developed capitalist economic models). In this article, we show how this mosaic can be explained, relating it to various driving …
Covid-19 as a Social Crisis and Justice Challenge for Cities
The article deals with Covid-19 as a social crisis and justice challenge for cities. It describes how Covid-19 shines a spotlight on the uneven distribution of goods and burdens, opportunities and resources that we find in most of the world's cities today; inequality and justice challenges arise from both the crisis itself and some of the policy reactions to it, such as the stay-at-home orders and economic lockdowns. It shows how exposure and vul…
Reurbanisation in Postsocialist Europe – A Comparative View of Eastern Germany, Poland, and the Czech Republic
Since the 1990s, reurbanisation has become an increasingly frequent trajectory for urban development. Many formerly shrinking cities have been able to stabilise their population or even see new growth. Especially prominent in regions like Germany and the UK, but also observed across the whole continent, a lively debate on reurbanisation has developed as a reality of today’s, and a potential trajectory for tomorrow’s, cities in Europe.Postsocialis…
Advancing integration or constructing new barriers to co‐operation? Stimuli and restrictions for cross‐border communication at the polish eastern border on the eve of EU enlargement
The upcoming enlargement of the EU in 2004 will impose a new framework on the regions on both sides of its future external border. On the one hand, the direct neighborhood at this border will encourage economic and infrastructural development in various ways in both the regions being integrated into the EU and those that will be newly adjacent to it. On the other hand, these regions and their inhabitants face the problem that new border regimes r…
Between Integration and Exclusion
Post-Socialist liberalisation has returned ethnic minorities in Central Eastern Europe to the spotlight. In border regions where inter-ethnic dialogue is burdened by historical conflicts that for over four decades were taboo, various developments now coincide. On the one hand, permeable borders and political transition have resulted in new legal rights for minorities coupled with vastly improved possibilities for contact and communication with th…

How does(n't) Urban Shrinkage get onto the Agenda? Experiences from L eipzig, L iverpool, G enoa and B ytom
This article discusses the question of how urban shrinkage gets onto the agenda of public‐policy agencies. It is based on a comparison of the agenda‐setting histories of four E uropean cities, L iverpool ( UK ), L eipzig ( G ermany), G enoa ( I taly) and B ytom ( P oland), which have all experienced severe population losses but show very different histories with respect to how local governments reacted to them. We use the political‐science concep…
The governance of urban shrinkage in cities of post-socialist Europe
This paper presents results of an international comparative research project ‘Smart governance of shrinking cities in a European context’. In recent years, many European cities have experienced urban shrinkage (population decline). Whereas there has been a wealth of research into the governance of growing cities, little consideration has been given to the governance of and policy responses to shrinking cities, particularly in relation to the decl…

The Contribution of Nature-Based Solutions to Socially Inclusive Urban Development– Some Reflections from a Social-environmental Perspective
Nature-based solutions have emerged to be a major approach or concept when discussing about the sustainable future four cities and are expected to represent solutions for societal problems. When looking closer at this approach, it becomes, however, obvious that the concept is loaded with too many expectations concerning the societal – and, what is more, the social – context of today’s urban reality. Furthermore, nature-based solutions are not inh…
