They all draw on an area based and cross-sectoral approach to urban problems, seeking to combine physical, economic and community interventions in order to tackle decay, deprivation and social exclusion in a comprehensive and encompassing way. As such an approach had been undertaken in various countries, neighbourhood regeneration strategies also drew increasing scholarly interest. However, the overwhelming majority of the existing studies on neighbourhood regeneration is limited to single cities or provides comparisons between cities within a single national context. Systematic cross-national comparison is rare - a notable exception is van Gent et al.’s (2009) study of neighbourhood regeneration in four different national contexts (Britain, the Netherlands, Spain and Sweden). The project “Regenerating urban neighbourhoods” (RUN), initiated by Prof. Clarence Stone (University of Maryland) in 2006, seeks to explore and understand cross-national variation in place-based policy response to neighbourhood distress in Europe and North America. The project brought together European and American scholars in a networked effort to investigate differences and similarities in patterns of policy intervention in distressed urban neighbourhoods across a broad range of countries. The aim of the project is a better understanding of policy intervention that involves sub-city residential areas experiencing distress. It is not concerned with explaining the underlying causes of distressed neighbourhoods or with evaluating the impact of policy initiatives, but with answering the questions of how and why policy choices were made and acted upon. In line with historical institutionalism (Steinmo et al., 1992), it is assumed that urban policy has institutional aspects, both intergovernmental and spatial, that are distinct (Brenner, 2004). The present working paper brings together eight case study reports on neighbourhood regeneration strategies in 17 deprived urban neighbourhoods, located in eight cities within six European countries (see Table 1 below). 4 Regenerating Urban Neighbourhoods in Europe Table 1: Case studies of neighbourhood regeneration strategies Country City Neighbourhoods Britain Manchester Beswick, Hulme Leicester Braunstone, St. Matthews and St. Marks Czech Republic Prague South City, Zizkov France Lille Lille sud, Bois Blancs Paris Porte de Clignancourt-Porte Montmartre, Portes du sud Germany Berlin Kotbusser Tor, Marzahn-Nord Netherlands Rotterdam Pendrecht, Tarwewijk, Afrikaanderwijk Switzerland Zurich Schwamendingen, Langstrasse Total: 6 Countries Total: 8 Cities Total: 17 Neighbourhoods The case studies explore neighbourhood regeneration strategies in eight large European cities: Berlin, Lille, Leicester, Manchester, Paris, Prague, Rotterdam, and Zurich. The case studies were conducted between 2006 and 2010 by national research teams on the basis of a common research protocol elaborated in the framework of the broader RUN research project in 2006 and further developed during the research process (see the model in the appendix). The common goal is to understand the politics of neighbourhood-based initiatives for the regeneration of urban areas. All eight case studies focus on how and why certain policy choices were made, why a particular neighbourhood approach has been selected over other possible interventions, how neighbourhood working does fit with other aspects of city politics and governance, what mechanisms have been put in place, and how neighbourhood interventions can be explained and interpreted. While all the city-teams collected original empirical data - mainly via documentary analysis and indepth interviews - to respond to these questions, the project guidelines were formulated open enough to allow case-oriented research strategies. Therefore, the structure of the case study presentations may differ quite substantially. But although the eight case studies did not follow exactly the same structure, they basically discuss the following common topics: • Neighbourhood distress as a topic of concern • Legacies of earlier neighbourhood policy • The citywide dimensions of socio-spatial inequality • Portrait of neighbourhoods selected for detailed study • Policy interventions in neighbourhoods chosen: Agenda standing, strategy, tools, and content • The local structure of politics and government • Resource availability • Institutional structure of intergovernmental supports • Mapping of potential major players • Understanding of the problem • Explaining and interpreting neighbourhood intervention In 2010, the authors of the eight European case studies and the project convenor, Prof. Clarence Stone, met in Zurich to discuss insights from the empirical work and to identify and discuss differences and similarities across the single cases, as well as emerging overarching themes. More precisely, the following overarching themes have been identified as Examples of such themes that emerged and could be investigated further in a cross-national perspective: Introduction 5 1. The convergence towards area-based policies in neighbourhood regeneration. The European case studies show a noticeable coincidence in the evolution of area-based regeneration policies. In several countries and cities, at the end of the 1990s, governments introduced, or set a strong focus on, neighbourhood regeneration policies (either at the national or at the local level): E.g. in German, English, Swiss, and Dutch cities, so-called integral policies had then a clearly territory-based focus, and were supposed to overcome merely physical interventions and sectorisation. In French cities, area-based regeneration policies have been introduced thirty years ago but neighbourhood interventions changed their focus with the neoliberal turn in European countries. In Prague, there are virtually no neighbourhood regeneration policies that would be territorially targeted and cross-sectoral as opposed to all other cities under scrutiny. Whereas in France an ongoing discussion and critique of place-oriented (in contrast to people-oriented) policies takes place, such policies in the German speaking countries hardly seem to be critically analysed. 2. From physical to more comprehensive neighbourhood regeneration strategies: variations in policy interventions. The case studies conducted in eight large European cities reveal a broad range of different interventions related to distressed neighbourhoods. However, it seems that in almost every city, neighbourhood regeneration policy developed from physical interventions to more comprehensive policies. In this new view, intervention strategies to counteract problems in distressed neighbourhoods intend to cover more than one policy at the same time and seek to go beyond merely physical interventions. Other variations however can be observed: E.g. image improvement strategies emerged as a new instrument for distressed neighbourhoods. And by the end of the 1990s and later on, some cities called for repressive and crime prevention policies instead of inequality

  • Cities and the “Multicultural State”: Immigration, Multi
    CITIES AND THE “MULTICULTURAL STATE”: IMMIGRATION, MULTI- ETHNIC NEIGHBORHOODS, AND THE SOCIO-SPATIAL NEGOTIATION OF POLICY IN THE NETHERLANDS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fullfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Annemarie Bodaar, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Mei-Po Kwan, Advisor Approved by: Dr. Eugene J. McCann Dr. Nancy Ettlinger _____________ Dr. Galey Modan Advisor Graduate Program in Geography Copyright by Annemarie Bodaar 2008 ABSTRACT Immigration is widely acknowledged to be a major social issue in Western European countries. In this context, the Netherlands was one of the few countries to commit itself to the ideal of a ‗multicultural state‘. While this policy ideal was intended to maintain the coherence of the increasingly multi-ethnic state, alleviate growing fear and suspicion of immigrants among sections of Dutch society, and overcome growing ethnic segregation in major cities, its implementation has produced a number of contradictions, however. There has been both a massive political shift in favor of anti- immigrant parties, and increases in segregation in the big cities. In this context the Nethelands has recently reconsidered its multicultural programs. While assimilation is gaining ground as the dominant discourse of immigrant integration in a number of liberal states, the Netherlands has experienced the most profound change away from multiculturalism. Dutch cities therefore could be considered laboratories for the analysis of changes in the way state actors and residents across the world are negotiating immigrant incorporation. This dissertation explores how policies aimed at immigrant integration developed, were implemented and how they were negotiated when implemented in specific multi- ethnic neighborhoods and its effects for neighborhoods, cities and the nation.

Introduction Gentrification has become the preferred urban policy instrument of choice for states all over the world. Public-private partnerships of city governments and property developers actively intervene in neighborhoods in order to change its socio-economic profile. The make-up of the neighborhoods changes, replacing the penniless by the more fortunate. From a sporadic process restricted to the city-center of a few cities, it has spread both vertically and laterally. It is no longer exclusively found in central urban areas, but also in peripheral neighborhoods. Occurrences are not limited to the large cities of the Anglo- sphere, the phenomenon can now also be found in Rio de Janeiro or in Rotterdam (Smith, 2002: 439). In Rotterdam, 'urban restructuring' is on the forefront of the policy agenda. The municipal city government and housing associations seduce private developers to invest in owner-occupied housing disadvantaged neighborhoods.

  • Residents Experience the Effects of Gentrification in Middelland and Katendrecht
    [I] “You cannot live with the present, if you forget the past” An insight on how ‘in between’ residents experience the effects of gentrification in Middelland and Katendrecht Bachelor thesis Geography, Planning & Environment Marijke Clarisse S4394682 Mentor: Ritske Dankert Radboud University Nijmegen Faculty of Management August 2016 [II] Preface To Complete my third year and thus the baChelor SoCial Geography, Spatial Planning and Environment at the Radboud University of Nijmegen, I have been working on my bachelor thesis for the last semester. The researCh I did was on the experienCes of gentrifiCation in Rotterdam for residents that are not taken into aCCount in the theories and how the positive governmental poliCy on gentrifiCation Could influenCe this: First of all I would like to thanks my mentor Ritske Dankert who guided me through the proCess of writing this thesis in the many feedbaCk sessions. I also would like to thank the people who took the time and effort to help me by providing me with the information needed through interviews. And all people who helped me through the past three years and especially the last few months: thank you! Marijke Clarisse Nijmegen, 12 augustus [III] Summary GentrifiCation has reCeived a lot of attention in the last Couple of years. Not only the United States of AmeriCa or the United Kingdom are dealing with gentrifiCation, the phenomenon has reaChed the Netherlands as well. In the Netherlands gentrifiCation is used by the government as a strategy for solving the problem of segregation in Certain neighbourhoods, whiCh makes those neighbourhoods less liveable. If the government wants to keep using gentrifiCation as a way to revitalise disadvantaged neighbourhoods in the City, it will have to find a way to meet the needs of both the middle class newcomers to the area, as well as the indigenous residents that want to keep living there.

  • Europe # Muslims
    OSI.MIE.PARISEN.PF1_Layout 1 2012.07.16. 14:39 Page 1 AT HOME IN EUROPE # MUSLIMS IN PARIS Muslims in Paris Whether citizens or migrants, native born or newly-arrived, Muslims are a growing and varied population that presents Europe with challenges and opportunities. The crucial tests facing Europe’s commitment to open society will be how it treats minorities such as Muslims and ensures equal rights for all in a climate of rapidly expanding diversity. The Open Society Foundations’ At Home in Europe project is working to address these issues through monitoring and advocacy activities that examine the position of Muslims and other minorities in Europe. One of the project’s key efforts is this series of reports on Muslim communities in the 11 EU cities of Amsterdam, Antwerp, Berlin, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Leicester, London, Marseille, Paris, Rotterdam, and Stockholm. The reports aim to increase understanding of the needs and aspirations of diverse Muslim communities by examining how public policies in selected cities have helped or hindered the political, social, and economic participation of Muslims. By fostering new dialogue and policy initiatives between Muslim communities, local officials, and international policymakers, the At Home in Europe project seeks to improve the participation and inclusion of Muslims in the wider society while enabling them to preserve the cultural, linguistic, and religious practices that are important to their identities. muslims-in-paris-incover-EN-publish-20120716_publish.qxd 2012.07.17. 19:02 Page 1 Muslims in Paris At Home in Europe Project TABLE OF CONTENTS Table of Contents Acknowledgements ....................................................................... 5 Preface .......................................................................................... 7 Muslims in Paris ..........................................................................
