IBA Book 2: Civic Cultur

June 2005

There is currently an unprecedented need for citizens’ commitment – in planning, local politics, social and employment market policies. But what has become of initiatives, round table discussions and vociferous citizens’ intervention? This book sets out to investigate changes in civil culture and its potential for urban redevelopment: commercialisation and self-organised projects, transnational networks and fast-moving styles of leisure characterise the wide range of contemporary civil culture. And strategies of planning such as activation, empowerment and self-organisation may now be distinguished. The publication reflects the opportunities and constraints which these represent for urban redevelopment.
