Beschreibung:
Urban diversity has become de rigueur as a discursive line in contemporary contributions to urban development. However, the fact that this interplay of identities also influences social space has so far been overlooked. `As one calls into the forest, so it will resound' - this familiar German saying proves to be an unreliable maxim: that which townsfolk might call into `their' neighborhood only echoes back off its façades in a fragmentary fashion, as a wish, idealization or hope. Andreas Thiesen sketches out concepts of reflexive urban development, reveals errors in planning and renegotiates the `problem of participation', which even today is yet to be resolved.
Urbane Diversität ist als Diskurslinie aus den zeitgenössischen Beiträgen zur Stadtentwicklung nicht mehr wegzudenken. Allerdings wurde bislang übersehen, dass jenes Wechselspiel der Identitäten auch den Sozialraum beeinflusst.
