Abstract The author gives a short overwiev of ”Military Operations in Urban Terrain” (MOUT) as known from history, especially from World War II, especially in Kyiv and Budapest. Some reflections on history and actual state of civil defence follow. After an overwiev of actual Ukrainian local government reform and planning legislation, a description of desirable legilatvie and financial action for the post-war time are described. A sort of ”Marsahll Plan” including the relevant institutions, and measures in the field of urban development, especially renewal, organisation of authorities, safeguarding plans, reallocation of property rights and - perhaps - betterment levy will be needed. Strategic environmental assessment should be introduced in acordance with EU legislation.

ABSTRACT A growing affordability problem in Canadian cities has prompted a renewed commitment of the federal government, complemented with provincial and municipal programs, to increase the supply of affordable rental housing. Recently, large Canadian cities have joined their efforts with non-profit and private organisations to provide affordable rental housing in mixed-income experimental projects. In this context, the research addresses a significant gap in the evaluation of partnerships, focusing on the nature of multi-agency collaborations in the provision process (design, build, finance, operate). Partnerships capitalise on the effective role of the public sector in the mobilization of resources, the efficiencies of private agencies in the development process (design, build) and the hybridity of the non-profit institutions (management, service delivery). The research develops a conceptual framework, based on the political market model to explain adoption of planning and housing policies by municipalities. It presents a typology of affordable housing partnerships using highlights from case studies in large Canadian cities – Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal.

ABSTRACT The city of Chongqing in Southwest China has recently attracted widespread attention for adopting a land-use policy, dipiao, which has radically transformed the rural and urban landscape. Previous research on the impacts of the new scheme on peasants remains inconclusive, which necessitates further qualitative study on whether the policy provides an equitable and sustainable solution to urbanisation. According to the results of semi-structured interviews conducted with 34 relocated peasants, the policy is equitable for all peasants regarding urbanisation. However, economically-disadvantaged peasants struggle with their livelihood after relocation. The findings enrich the understanding of the ongoing urbanisation process in China.

ABSTRACT Global economic restructuring since the 1970s, and the rollback of the welfare state in the Global North has been a major contributor to a reduction in the affordable housing stock. Similarly in the so-called Global South recent economic development has been accompanied by a lack of sustainable affordable housing and housing policies. In this short paper, I aim to analyse important policy papers from the central government of Turkey and local government of Istanbul focusing on the housing policies. I will use content and policy analysis to examine the legal and policy framework in the city of Istanbul and compare this with what is happening on the ground. These policy papers include Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Strategical Plan (2020–2024), Turkey 11th 5 year Development Plan Housing Politics (2019–2023), Urban Development Strategy (2010–2023) and Istanbul Regional Plan (2014–2023).

ABSTRACT Reducing citizen dissatisfaction with public services is a challenge for good urban governance. Using the case of Public Opinion 110 by Nanjing police, this article finds a new method to proactively, accurately, and timely measure citizen satisfaction and improve inadequate services. The findings confirm the importance of efficient two-way communication, the citizen-centered approach, and the combined use of technologies in improving citizen satisfaction. This article provides a feasible solution for urban governments facing the dilemma of citizen dissatisfaction with public services.

ABSTRACT Based on an analysis of plan-making processes in 12 Baltic cities, this study explores public engagement strategies and dominant ICT-enabled engagement approaches and processes in the post-socialist context. The results show that e-participation is an integral part of the city planning practices in all three Baltic States, primarily contributing to the diversification of informing and consulting processes. More meaningful participation is achieved by combining e-participation with follow-up deliberation, demonstrating the potential of blended and iterative participatory strategies. Moreover, ICT-enabled self-organization is forcing a shift towards greater transparency, accountability, and civic involvement that is transformative for the post-socialist context.

ABSTRACT The rise of poverty in Western European countries due to different processes such as the dualization and polarization of the labour market has led to different mechanisms of social exclusion. In this paper, low-income Colombian and Peruvian migrants in Brussels, Belgium) are the subject of study. This article highlights the different survival strategies employed by these households in different economic settings. Their survival strategies are analyzed in two municipalities – with different concentrations of Latin Americans – both located in socioeconomically disadvantaged areas. These urban settings offer different opportunities for social integration and community development, primarily related to the neighborhood resources.
