Beschreibung:
<jats:p> Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) have evolved as an ‘innovation’ in urban governance supposed to function as a reaction to inner-city decay, emerging suburbs and the transformation of the retail industry owing to so-called ‘malling’ under ‘actually existing neoliberalism’. In the field of security, the interplay of public police and rent-a-cops being directed by ‘institutionalized lobbyism’ represents local governance regimes in exclusionary action. The paper analyses the concept of BIDs with regard to its controversial legal (constitutional), spatial and humanitarian impacts. Evidence for the critical challenges that are brought about by BIDs is taken from case studies in the City of Hamburg, Germany. </jats:p>
