Abstract
The presentation will address conflicts and trade-offs as catalyst, consequence and outcome of urban sustainability transformation. The discussion will highlight the underlying causes of conflicts and trade-offs by looking at their emergence, the consequences of their occurrence, the manner in which they are (or are not) addressed and the insights that can be gained from them for a more comprehensive and sophisticated understanding of transformation and a more effective approach to its realisation and implementation. The conceptual framework of the talk will examine the interconnections between urban transformation research and social conflict analysis, illustrating the potential for cross-fertilization. The presentation will include case studies from a number of empirical projects which address a variety of urban policy fields, including green space development, green gentrification and environmental injustices, local mobility transformation and urban land use conflicts.
Dr. Annegret Haase is an urban sociologist working at the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research – UFZ in Leipzig, Germany, at the Dept. of Urban and Environmental Sociology. Her main research foci are urban transformation within the context of crisis and conflict, socio-spatial and socio-environmental processes in cities, urban inequalities and justice issues, urban diversity, local governance and participation.
