The urbanization of transition: ideology and the urban experience

Abstract: a cardiff university -school of Geography and planning Glamorgan Building, cardiff, uK; b national research university higher school of Economics, moscow, russian Federation ABSTRACT This paper debates the relationships between transition and urbanization by problematizing the operation of transition on three inter-related levels.

“…The third challenge refers to the classical problem of research on socialist and post-socialist cities, which is how to make sense of, and to theorize, the relation between social change and urban space (Bouzarovski, Sýkora, and Matoušek 2016;Golubchikov 2016;Ouředníček 2016). This issue clearly remains important in stimulating new ideas and new conceptual tools in urban studies, reaching well beyond the field of research on post-socialist cities.…”

“…As Castells (1976, 60) explained, "[e]very science … consists of a mixture, which sometimes varies according to circumstances, of ideology and theory." The conceptual and theoretical debates on the postsocialist city raise our awareness of this intermingling, analyzing its influence on the state of the art produced in academia, and several contributions to this volume engage with this complication (Chelcea and Druţă 2016;Golubchikov 2016;Ferenčuhová 2016b).…”

“…Trubina (2014) focusing on the interplay of mega-events and their spatialities sees Sochi as an event through which Russian urban transformations become internationally connected and which as such will already have a lasting legacy. However, in line with the tendencies of post-socialist studies to see urban change as a projection of social change rather than a dimension of social change (Golubchikov 2016b), Trubina only treats Sochi as 'the most visible expression of the spatial dynamics of Russia' (p. 623), not as a vehicle of transformative changes. As Flyvbjerg (2014, p. 6) argues, however, mega-projects 'are designed to ambitiously change the structure of society, as opposed to smaller and more conventional projects that .…”

“… This is not to suggest that neoliberalism is no longer occasionally taken for granted. Examples drawn from our sample journals include Chelcea and Druţă (), Golubchikov (), Haase et al (), Schmiz (), Voiculescu and Jucu (), Bouzarovski et al () and others. However, the chosen timeframe also implies that we, as authors, reduce the risk of influencing the sample simply by taking an interest in the issue in focus.…”
