European Planning History in the 20th Century
The history of Europe in the 20th century is closely tied to the history of urban planning. Social and economic progress but also the brute treatment of people and nature throughout Europe were possible due to the use of urban planning and the other levels of spatial planning. Thereby, planning has constituted itself in Europe as an international subject. Since its emergence, through intense exchange but also competition, despite country differences, planning has developed as a European field of practice and scientific discipline. Planning is here much more than the addition of individual histories; however, historiography has treated this history very selective regarding geography and conte...
Corona und die Stadt
Die Corona-Krise stellt das städtische Zusammenleben auf eine harte Probe. Nicht nur sozialer Austausch, Kultur und Verkehr, sondern auch die kommunale Demokratie ist massiv beeinflusst. Wer kann in der Krise noch mitsprechen? Und wie verändert sie das Zusammenspiel von Verwaltung, Politik und Zivilgesellschaft? Die Beiträger*innen untersuchen anhand von Fallstudien die Auswirkungen der Krise auf die kommunale Beteiligungskultur. Sie fragen mit interdisziplinärem Blick nach der kommunalen Krisenbewältigung und erfolgreichen Governance-Strukturen im Kontext multipler Krisen. Ihr Ansatz der kritischen Urbanistik versteht sich dabei als Einladung zur Reflexion, Debatte und alternativen Praxis.

Donatien Grau. Living Museums
As places to enjoy art, as well as institutions that have become historic, museums can also be examined through the question of who exactly heads up these temples of art. What kinds of personalities have guided the fates of these large, traditional institutions? How have they done so, and what has motivated them? What galvanizes international curators or museum employees, and how have they risen to the challenge of opening their organizations to increasingly large numbers of visitors? Donatien Grau has conducted impressive conversations with influential museum operators. We have him to thank for these personal, art historical, cultural-political, and timely insights into museum operations, t...
