ABSTRACT This study explored Vietnam’s urbanization process and spatial restructuring over the last 30 years to conceptualize a new phenomenon challenging the concept of desakota. We constructed socioeconomic and urban land cover data from 1987 to 2018. Furthermore, we compared the urbanization process with the economic transition and mapped urban land growth patterns. The study found the following urbanization features: (1) fluctuating process of urbanization by development stage in a transitional economy, (2) formation of heterogeneous spatial patterns in metropolitan regions, (3) dramatic landscape changes caused by capitalistic property developments, and (4) functional reordering among urban centers and newly urbanized areas.

ABSTRACT Local agency is marked by its structural boundedness including nation state strategies. We investigate the dynamic and mutually constitutive interrelationship between agency and state strategies to better understand and explain change in local development with the examples of four mining towns: Kiruna (Sweden), Zeitz (Germany), Most (Czechia) and Tatabánya (Hungary). They embody processes of industrial transition and mining activities that are heavily regulated by (supra-) national authorities and marked by constantly changing multiscalar power relations. We find local agency is constrained by rather specific relations and can be facilitated by more complementary ones, both on local level and between different scales.

ABSTRACT This comparative case study examines community self-governance in informal settlements in São Paulo, Brazil, through the Policy Arrangement Approach. Drawing on participant observation and semi-structured interviews, I highlight the importance of context in shaping self-governance and outcomes. Self-governance embodies power and politics, often not contained to the spatial boundaries of the informal settlements, and developed through intersecting nodes of people, organizations, institutions, resources, spaces. Ultimately, this study questions the notion of self-governance as a simplistic binary to propose self-governance as a dialectical continuum of self/non-self, recognizing the realities of governing communities as multiple, complex, and fluid.

ABSTRACT Prospering Stuttgart Region is facing a continuous population growth. Additional housing land is needed as densification and urban infill alone will not be sufficient. There is, however, an increasing skepticism about any type of new development. As local referendums on land use plans are possible in the state of Baden-Württemberg, plan proposals may be rejected. The assembly of the regional planning authority has decided on measures to encourage local authorities to make building land available. The package includes the use of instruments that go beyond statutory planning and comprises investment in local public transport and business development.

ABSTRACT This article examines the regulatory innovations and the way they were introduced by Russian federal authorities in the months leading up to the war in Ukraine. Following the standardization approach of the Soviet planning system, there was a rapid adoption of new and the modification of existing GOSTs. This article attempts to 1) trace and document how a hybrid regime state with a socialist planning heritage prepares the cities for war in the 21st century, and 2) propose an explanation for why the expert’s community has not reacted to such urgent policy changes.

ABSTRACT The article contributes to contemporary urban studies debates on the role of civil society in governance, by critically considering the possibilities and limitations the bottom-linked approach entails for inclusive urban governance. Through an empirical analysis of bottom-linked initiatives developed in the city of Athens, it investigates emergent forms of cooperation and conflict between institutional and civil society actors. Further, it offers an analysis of the different dimensions the bottom-linked model may acquire, contributing insights into the entangled dynamics of self-responsibilization and self-emancipation implicated with emergent notions of citizenship and governance in Southern European cities.

ABSTRACT The publicness of publicly owned public spaces is an important concept that needs further examination, especially in countres like China where most urban public spaces are publicly owned and managed. This case study of Chongqing People’s Square reveals that the transformation of municipal squares’ publicness in reform-era China is closely linked with the country’s shifting political and sociocultural contexts. We argue that despite traditionally valued public ownership and planning-design qualities, the crucial role of governance management in shaping the publicness of publicly owned and managed public space is not yet fully understood.

ABSTRACT This paper studies how residents in the neighbourhood Bospolder-Tussendijken (BoTu) have dealt with the COVID-19 restrictions. Prior to the pandemic, significant investments in community-building were made to increase resilience of individuals and communities in BoTu. This paper identifies the key assets BoTu residents had developed and actually during this ultimate challenge. Interviews with formal and informal actors in BoTu revealed that community leadership, engaged governance, problem-solving ability, and information sharing environment were essential to adequately respond to the crisis, and were successfully deployed. The paper concludes with five policy implications to help strengthen capacities and relationships needed for community resilience.
