MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: It is a challenge for researchers - and for local policy-makers - to find a structured approach to identifying the effects of long-term processes of urban regeneration. Behind it is also the interest in identifying the various “drivers” of effects according to their fields and levels of action. Their interaction sets the framework for the consequences whether they be a “lack of upgrading or even downgrading” or “upgrading with or without displacement effects” (keyword “gentrification”). In a current project commissioned by the Municipality of Vienna - a promoter of the principle of “Soft Urban Regeneration” for forty years - the multidisciplinary team is examining these questions using various investigative strands (social and structural changes and the property market) to compare three inner-city areas over 25 years. The paper discusses experiences with methods in a first phase, whether initial conclusions can be drawn and the concept for a phase 2 of the research project.
