Rolul coaliţiilor de dezvoltare în regenerarea urbană. Cazul unui proiect de revitalizare a unei zone industriale din Bucureşti
Abstract
Urban Regeneration policies have been developed in Western countries in response to the negative effects cities were confronted with after undertaken processes of deindustrialization and suburban sprawl. The qualitative research I have conducted between 19 March-5 April 2006 was designed as an explorative case study focused on the development of an urban regeneration coalition targeting the regeneration of a formal industrial area located in Ravoha neighborhood in Bucharest. This study aims to contribute to the field of urban regeneration research in the post-socialist countries and analyses urban regeneration from the perspective of local and global factors.
