TY - THES A1 - Javanmardi, Leila T1 - URBANISM AND DICTATORSHIP. A Study on Urban Planning in Contemporary History of Iran, Second Pahlavi: 1941-1979 N2 - The evolution of urbanism under dictatorship forms the core of the current research. This thesis is part of a research network at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, which studies the 20th century's urbanism under different dictatorships. The network has provided a cross-cultural and cross-border environment and has enabled the author to communicate with other like-minded researchers. The 2015 published book of this group 'Urbanism and Dictatorship: A European Perspective' strengthens the foundation of this research's theoretical and methodological framework. This thesis investigates urban policies and plans leading to the advancement of urbanization and the transformation of urban space in Iran during the second Pahlavi (1941-1979) when the country faced a milestone in its history: Nationalization of the Iranian oil industry. By reflecting the influence of economic and socio‐political determinants of the time on urbanism and the urbanization process, this work intends to critically trace the effect of dictatorship on evolved urbanism before and after the oil nationalization in 1951. The research on the second Pahlavi's urbanism has been limitedly addressed and has only recently expanded. Most of the conducted studies date back to less than a decade ago and could not incorporate all the episodes of the second Pahlavi urbanism. These works have often investigated urbanism and architecture by focusing merely on the physical features and urban products in different years regardless of the importance of urbanism as a tool in the service of hegemony. In other words, the majority of the available literature does not intend to address the socio-economic and political roots of urban transformations and by questioning 'what has been built?' investigates the individual urban projects and plans designed by individual designers without interlinking these projects to the state's urban planning program and tracing the beneficiaries of those projects or questioning 'built for whom?' Moreover, some chapters of this modern urbanism have rarely been investigated. For instance, scant research has looked into the works of foreign designers and consultants involved in the projects such as Peter Georg Ahrens or Constantinos A. Doxiadis. Similarly, the urbanism of the first decade of the second Pahlavi, including the government of Mossadegh, has mainly been overlooked. Therefore, by critically analyzing the state's urban planning program and the process of urbanization in Iran during the second Pahlavi, this research aims to bridge the literature gap and to unravel the effect of the power structure on urban planning and products while seeking to find a pattern behind the regime's policies. The main body of this work is concentrated on studying the history of urbanism in Iran, of which collecting data and descriptions played a crucial role. To prevent the limitations associated with singular methods, this research's methodology is based on methodological triangulation (Denzin, 2017). With the triangulation scheme, the data is gathered by combining different qualitative and quantitative methods such as the library, archival and media research, online resources, non-participatory observation, and photography. For the empirical part, the city of Tehran is selected as the case study. Moreover, individual non-structured interviews with the locals were conducted to gain more insights regarding urban projects.

Dass die Quantität und Qualität der in natürlicher Umgebung wachsenden Makroalgen schwankt, reduziert jedoch deren Verwertbarkeit und erschwert die Erschließung hochpreisiger Marktsegmente. Zudem ist eine Ausweitung der Zucht in marinen und küstennahen Aquakulturen in Europa gegenwärtig wenig aussichtsreich, da vielversprechende Areale bereits zum Fischfang oder als Erholungs- bzw. Naturschutzgebiete ausgewiesen sind. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wird demzufolge ein geschlossenes Photobioreaktorsystem zur Makroalgenkultivierung entwickelt, welches eine umfassende Kontrolle der abiotischen Kultivierungsparameter und eine effektive Aufbereitung des Kulturmediums vorsieht, um eine standortunabhängige Algenproduktion zu ermöglichen. Zur Bilanzierung des Gesamtkonzeptes einer Kultivierung und Verwertung (stofflich oder energetisch) werden die spezifischen Wachstumsraten und Methanbildungspotentiale der Algenarten Ulva intestinalis, Fucus vesiculosus und Palmaria palmata in praktischen Versuchen ermittelt. Im Ergebnis wird für den gegenwärtigen Entwicklungsstand der Kultivierungsanlage eine positive Bilanz für die stoffliche Verwertung der Algenart Ulva intestinalis und eine negative Bilanz für die energetische Verwertung aller untersuchten Algenarten erzielt. Wird ein Optimalszenario betrachtet, indem die Besatzdichten und Wachstumsraten der Algen in der Zucht erhöht werden, bleibt die Energiebilanz negativ. Allerdings summieren sich die finanzielle Einnahmen durch einen Verkauf der Algen als Produkt auf jährlich 460.869€ für Ulva intestinalis, 4.010€ für Fucus vesiculosus und 16.913€ für Palmaria palmata. Im Ergebnis ist insbesondere eine stoffliche Verwertung der gezüchteten Grünalge Ulva intestinalis anzustreben und die Produktivität der Zuchtanlage im Sinne des Optimalszenarios zu steigern. N2 - Marine macroalgae have renown properties as feedstock for fuel, food or pharmaceuticals. However, since the quantity and quality of naturally grown algae vary widely, their exploitability is reduced – especially for producers in high priced markets. Moreover, the expansion of marine or shore-based cultivation systems is unlikely in Europe, since promising sites either lie in fishing zones, recreational areas or natural reserves. The aim of this thesis was therefore to develop a closed photobioreactor system enabling full control of abiotic environmental parameters and an effective reconditioning of the cultivation medium in order to produce marine macroalgae at sites distant from shore. Using environmental management accounting methods, the potential output of macroalgae cultivation and valorization (product- or energy-based) is being assessed based on the specific growth rates and methane yields achievable with the species Ulva intestinalis, Fucus vesiculosus and Palmaria palmata. The balancing results for the status quo of the developed cultivation system show a positive outcome for a product-based valorization of the species Ulva intestinalis and a negative outcome for an energy-based valorization of all species investigated. Considering an optimum scenario providing an increase of growth rates and culture density, the balance of an energy-based valorization remains negative for all three species. However, the financial income by selling the cultivated macroalgae as a product sums up to a yearly amount of 460.869€ for Ulva intestinalis, 4.010€ for Fucus vesiculosus and 16.913€ for Palmaria palmata. Concluding, a product-based valorization seems promising – especially for the green algae Ulva intestinalis – when the productivity of the developed cultivation system is increased in accordance to the framework of the optimum scenario.

Purely predictive material models are highly desirable to facilitate an optimized design scheme and to significantly reduce time and cost at the design stage, such as experimental characterization. The present study examined the role of three major tasks; a) single-objective optimization, b) sensitivity analyses and c) multi-objective optimization on proposed weave structures for woven fabric composites. For single-objective optimization task, the first goal is to optimize the elastic properties of proposed complex weave structure under unit cells basis based on periodic boundary conditions. We predict the geometric characteristics towards skewness of woven fabric composites via Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) and a parametric study. We also demonstrate the effect of complex weave structures on the fray tendency in woven fabric composites via tightness evaluation. We utilize a procedure which does not require a numerical averaging process for evaluating the elastic properties of woven fabric composites. The fray tendency and skewness of woven fabrics depends upon the behaviour of the floats which is related to the factor of weave. Results of this study may suggest a broader view for further research into the effects of complex weave structures or may provide an alternative to the fray and skewness problems of current weave structure in woven fabric composites. A comprehensive study is developed on the complex weave structure model which adopts the dry woven fabric of the most potential pattern in singleobjective optimization incorporating the uncertainties parameters of woven fabric composites. The comprehensive study covers the regression-based and variance-based sensitivity analyses. The second task goal is to introduce the fabric uncertainties parameters and elaborate how they can be incorporated into finite element models on macroscopic material parameters such as elastic modulus and shear modulus of dry woven fabric subjected to uni-axial and biaxial deformations. Significant correlations in the study, would indicate the need for a thorough investigation of woven fabric composites under uncertainties parameters. The study describes here could serve as an alternative to identify effective material properties without prolonged time consumption and expensive experimental tests. The last part focuses on a hierarchical stochastic multi-scale optimization approach (fine-scale and coarse-scale optimizations) under geometrical uncertainties parameters for hybrid composites considering complex weave structure. The fine-scale optimization is to determine the best lamina pattern that maximizes its macroscopic elastic properties, conducted by EA under the following uncertain mesoscopic parameters: yarn spacing, yarn height, yarn width and misalignment of yarn angle. The coarse-scale optimization has been carried out to optimize the stacking sequences of symmetric hybrid laminated composite plate with uncertain mesoscopic parameters by employing the Ant Colony Algorithm (ACO). The objective functions of the coarse-scale optimization are to minimize the cost (C) and weight (W) of the hybrid laminated composite plate considering the fundamental frequency and the buckling load factor as the design constraints. Based on the uncertainty criteria of the design parameters, the appropriate variation required for the structural design standards can be evaluated using the reliability tool, and then an optimized design decision in consideration of cost can be subsequently determined.

The main aim of this thesis is to reveal ‘the process of totalitarian city making in Pyongyang’, especially in the light of the interaction between the power and urban space. The totalitarian city of Pyongyang was born out of modernization in the process of masses formation. During the growth of colonial capitalism and Christian liberal ideas, Pyongyang was modernized and displayed the characteristics of a modern city with industrialization and urbanization. During the introduction of Japanese colonial capitalism, peasants, women, and slaves became the first masses and urban poor, and they later transformed into the mob; their violence was finally demonstrated during the Anti-Chinese Riot. After the 1945 independence, Kim’s regime formed the one-party state with a cry for revolution. They produced an atmosphere of imminent war to instill fear and hatred into the psyche of Pyongyang citizens. The regime eliminated all political opponents in 1967 and finally declared the totalitarian ideology in 1974. During this process, Pyongyang demonstrated two main characteristics of a totalitarian city: the space of terror and of ideology. The space of terror produces the fear of death and the space of ideology controls the thought and life of citizens. After entry to the market, to keep Kim’s controlling power, the regime used the strategy of location exchange. The camp, market, and Foreign Currency Shop were effective tools to prepare for executives’ gifts. However, the market also produces the desire not only for consumption but also for freedom and truth; it is tearing down the foundation of the totalitarian city of Pyongyang. This research focuses primarily on the interaction between political power and urban space. In the process of making a totalitarian city, the power produced urban space and it influenced the psyche of Pyongyang citizens. Even though this spatial transition has created the totalitarian city and helped maintain political power, it also led and produced intended or unintended social variation in Pyongyang society.

In recent decades, LIBs have caught tremendous attention in mobile communication, portable electronics, and electric vehicles. Furthermore, global warming has become a worldwide issue due to the ongoing production of greenhouse gases. It motivates solutions such as renewable sources of energy. Solar and wind energies are the most important ones in renewable energy sources. By technology progress, they will definitely require batteries to store the produced power to make a balance between power generation and consumption. Nowadays,rechargeable batteries such as LIBs are considered as one of the best solutions. They provide high specific energy and high rate performance while their rate of self-discharge is low. Performance of LIBs can be improved through the modification of battery characteristics. The size of solid particles in electrodes can impact the specific energy and the cyclability of batteries. It can improve the amount of lithium content in the electrode which is a vital parameter in capacity and capability of a battery. There exist diferent sources of heat generation in LIBs such as heat produced during electrochemical reactions, internal resistance in battery. The size of electrode's electroactive particles can directly affect the produced heat in battery. It will be shown that the smaller size of solid particle enhance the thermal characteristics of LIBs. Thermal issues such as overheating, temperature maldistribution in the battery, and thermal runaway have confined applications of LIBs. Such thermal challenges reduce the Life cycle of LIBs. As well, they may lead to dangerous conditions such as fire or even explosion in batteries. However, recent advances in fabrication of advanced materials such as graphene and carbon nanotubes with extraordinary thermal conductivity and electrical properties propose new opportunities to enhance their performance. Since experimental works are expensive, our objective is to use computational methods to investigate the thermal issues in LIBS. Dissipation of the heat produced in the battery can improve the cyclability and specific capacity of LIBs. In real applications, packs of LIB consist several battery cells that are used as the power source. Therefore, it is worth to investigate thermal characteristic of battery packs under their cycles of charging/discharging operations at different applied current rates. To remove the produced heat in batteries, they can be surrounded by materials with high thermal conductivity. Parafin wax absorbs high energy since it has a high latent heat. Absorption high amounts of energy occurs at constant temperature without phase change. As well, thermal conductivity of parafin can be magnified with nano-materials such as graphene, CNT, and fullerene to form a nano-composite medium. Improving the thermal conductivity of LIBs increase the heat dissipation from batteries which is a vital issue in systems of battery thermal management. The application of two-dimensional (2D) materials has been on the rise since exfoliation the graphene from bulk graphite. 2D materials are single-layered in an order of nanosizes which show superior thermal, mechanical, and optoelectronic properties. They are potential candidates for energy storage and supply, particularly in lithium ion batteries as electrode material. The high thermal conductivity of graphene and graphene-like materials can play a significant role in thermal management of batteries. However, defects always exist in nano-materials since there is no ideal fabrication process. One of the most important defects in materials are nano-crack which can dramatically weaken the mechanical properties of the materials. Newly synthesized crystalline carbon nitride with the stoichiometry of C3N have attracted many attentions due to its extraordinary mechanical and thermal properties. The other nano-material is phagraphene which shows anisotropic mechanical characteristics which is ideal in production of nanocomposite. It shows ductile fracture behavior when subjected under uniaxial loadings. It is worth to investigate their thermo-mechanical properties in its pristine and defective states. We hope that the findings of our work not only be useful for both experimental and theoretical researches but also help to design advanced electrodes for LIBs.

Unter Ausnutzung ihrer Puzzolanität soll ein erheblicher Teil der Klinkerkomponente im Zement ersetzt werden, wobei der zu ihrer Aktivierung notwendige Energiebedarf vergleichsweise niedrig ist. Wesentliche Vorteile der Tone sind ihre weltweit nahezu unbegrenzte Verfügbarkeit sowie der äußerst geringe rohstoffbedingte CO2-Ausstoß während der Calcinierung. Schwierigkeiten auf dem Weg der Umsetzung bestehen allerdings in der Vielseitigkeit des Systems, welches durch eine hohe Varietät der Rohtone und des daraus folgenden thermischen Verhaltens gekennzeichnet ist. Entsprechend schwierig ist die Übertragbarkeit von Erfahrungen mit bereits etablierten calcinierten Tonen wie dem Metakaolin, der sich durch hohe Reinheit, einen aufwendigen Aufbereitungsprozess und eine entsprechend hohe Reaktivität auszeichnet. Ziel der Arbeit ist es daher, den bereits erlangten Kenntnisstand auf andere, wirtschaftlich relevante Tone zu erweitern und deren Eignung für die Anwendung im Beton herauszuarbeiten. In einem mehrstufigen Arbeitsprogramm wurde untersucht, inwieweit großtechnisch nutzbare Tone aktivierbar sind und welche Eigenschaften sich daraus für Zement und Beton ergeben. Die dabei festgestellte Reihenfolge Kaolinit > Montmorillonit > Illit beschreibt sowohl die Reaktivität der Brennprodukte als auch umgekehrt die Höhe der optimalen Calciniertemperatur. Auch wandelt sich der Charakter der entstandenen Metaphasen in dieser Abfolge von röntgenamorph und hochreaktiv zu glasig und reaktionsträge. Trotz dieser Einordnung konnte selbst mit dem Illit eine mit Steinkohlenflugasche vergleichbare Puzzolanität festgestellt werden. Dies bestätigte sich anschließend in Parameterversuchen, bei denen die Einflüsse von Rohstoffqualität, Calcinierung, Aufbereitung und Zement hinsichtlich der Reaktivitätsausbeute bewertet wurden. Die Bandbreite der erzielbaren Qualitäten ist dabei immens und gipfelt nicht zuletzt in stark unterschiedlichen Wirkungen auf die Festbetoneigenschaften. Hier machte sich vor allem die für Puzzolane typische Porenverfeinerung bemerkbar, sodass viele von Transportvorgängen abhängige Schadmechanismen unterdrückt wurden. Andere Schadex-positionen wie der Frostangriff ließen sich durch Zusatzmaßnahmen wie dem Eintrag von Luftporen beherrschen. Zu bemängeln sind vor allem die schlechte Verarbeitbarkeit kaolinitischer Metatone wie auch die für Puzzolane stark ausgeprägte Carbonatisierungsneigung. Wesentliches Ergebnis der Arbeit ist, dass auch Tone, die bisher als geringwertig bezüglich des Aktivierungspotentials galten, nutzbare puzzolanische Eigenschaften entwickeln können. So kann selbst ein stark verunreinigter Illit-Ton die Qualität von Flugasche erreichen. Mit stei-gendem Tonmineralgehalt sowie bei Präsens thermisch instabilerer Tonminerale wie Mont-morillonit und Kaolinit erweitert sich das Spektrum nutzbarer Puzzolanitäten bis hin zur hochreaktiven Metakaolin-Qualität. Damit lassen sich gute bis sehr gute Betoneigenschaften erzielen, sodass die Leistungsfähigkeit etablierter Kompositmaterialien erreicht wird. Somit sind die Voraussetzungen für eine umfangreiche Nutzung der erheblichen Tonmengen im Zement und Beton gegeben. Entsprechend können Tone einen effektiven Beitrag zu einer gesteigerten Nachhaltigkeit in der Baustoffproduktion weltweit leisten.

This work deals with the assessment and development of models for aerodynamic and aeroelastic analyses of long-span bridges. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and semi-analytical aerodynamic models are employed to compute the bridge response due to both turbulent and laminar free-stream. For the assessment of these models, a comparative methodology is developed that consists of two steps, a qualitative and a quantitative one. The first, qualitative, step involves an extension of an existing approach based on Category Theory and its application to the field of bridge aerodynamics. Initially, the approach is extended to consider model comparability and completeness. Then, the complexity of the CFD and twelve semi-analytical models are evaluated based on their mathematical constructions, yielding a diagrammatic representation of model quality. In the second, quantitative, step of the comparative methodology, the discrepancy of a system response quantity for time-dependent aerodynamic models is quantified using comparison metrics for time-histories. Nine metrics are established on a uniform basis to quantify the discrepancies in local and global signal features that are of interest in bridge aerodynamics. These signal features involve quantities such as phase, time-varying frequency and magnitude content, probability density, non-stationarity, and nonlinearity. The two-dimensional (2D) Vortex Particle Method is used for the discretization of the Navier-Stokes equations including a Pseudo-three dimensional (Pseudo-3D) extension within an existing CFD solver. The Pseudo-3D Vortex Method considers the 3D structural behavior for aeroelastic analyses by positioning 2D fluid strips along a line-like structure. A novel turbulent Pseudo-3D Vortex Method is developed by combining the laminar Pseudo-3D VPM and a previously developed 2D method for the generation of free-stream turbulence. Using analytical derivations, it is shown that the fluid velocity correlation is maintained between the CFD strips. Furthermore, a new method is presented for the determination of the complex aerodynamic admittance under deterministic sinusoidal gusts using the Vortex Particle Method. The sinusoidal gusts are simulated by modeling the wakes of flapping airfoils in the CFD domain with inflow vortex particles. Positioning a section downstream yields sinusoidal forces that are used for determining all six components of the complex aerodynamic admittance. A closed-form analytical relation is derived, based on an existing analytical model. With this relation, the inflow particles’ strength can be related with the target gust amplitudes a priori. The developed methodologies are combined in a synergistic framework, which is applied to both fundamental examples and practical case studies. Where possible, the results are verified and validated. The outcome of this work is intended to shed some light on the complex wind–bridge interaction and suggest appropriate modeling strategies for an enhanced design.

Künstlerische Zuwendung zu den Dingen in den 1960er-Jahren N2 - Diese Dissertation beschäftigt sich mit Kunstwerken, die das alltägliche Ding in den Blick nehmen. Nährboden dieser Kunstform sind die soziokulturellen Entwicklungen des 20. Jahrhunderts, mit denen wesentliche Veränderungen hinsichtlich des Verhältnisses von Mensch und Ding einhergingen. Daraus resultierte eine allgemeine künstlerische Zuwendung zu den Dingen und eine einzigartige Kulmination aus verschiedenartigen Auseinandersetzungen mit ihnen als kunstfähige Gegenstände, über die sich die neue Dingwelt erschlossen wurde und deren Kunstwerke einen Spiegel dieser Entwicklungen darstellen. Die Dissertation stellt ebenfalls die Dinge selbst in den Fokus. Vier Aspekte von Dingen (Materialität, Funktionalität, Repräsentationalität und Relationalität) werden gesondert ins Auge gefasst und in den theoretischen Diskurs des 20. Jahrhunderts eingeordnet, um sie als Teil der gelebten Realität besser zu verstehen, von der sich der ästhetische Blick nicht trennen lässt. Anhand der künstlerischen Positionen von Robert Rauschenberg, Christo und Jeanne-Claude, Daniel Spoerri und Arman sowie Claes Oldenburg werden die verschiedenen Aspekte der Dinge näher betrachtet und analysiert, wie diese speziell in den Kunstwerken thematisiert werden und welche Relevanz sie für deren Rezeptionserfahrung haben. Die Korrelation dieser beiden Ebenen - die Dinge als konstitutiver Bestandteil im sozialen Raum und die Dinge als Elemente in Kunstwerken -, die im Fokus der vorliegenden Untersuchung steht, ermöglicht es, die künstlerische Zuwendung zu den Dingen in den 1960er-Jahren neu einzuordnen. Darüber hinaus wird dadurch ein differenziertes Bild von der Kunst dieser Zeit sowie den Dingen in der Kunst im Allgemeinen gezeichnet. N2 - This dissertation deals with works of art that focus on everyday things. The basis for this art form are the sociocultural developments of the 20th century, which have brought major changes in the relationship between people and things. This resulted in a general artistic devotion to things and a unique culmination of different confrontations with them as artful objects, through which the new world of things was opened up and whose works of art reflect these developments. Therefor the dissertation focuses on things themselves. Four aspects of things (materiality, functionality, representationality and Relationality) are considered separately and classified within the theoretical discourse of the 20th century in order to understand them as part of the everyday reality, from which the aesthetic view cannot be separated. Based on the artistic positions of Robert Rauschenberg, Christo and Jeanne-Claude, Daniel Spoerri and Arman as well as Claes Oldenburg the different aspects of things are examined and it is analyzed, how they are specifically highlighted in the artworks and how they become relevant for the art works reception experience. The correlation of these two levels - things as a constitutive component in social space and things as elements in works of art - makes it possible to classify this artistic devotion to things in the 1960s. It also creates a differentiated picture of the art of the time and of things in art in general.

Vilém Flussers Medienphilosophie N2 - In einer systematischen Interpretation von Vilém Flussers Werk schlägt die Arbeit vor, Flussers Ansatz als einen medienphilosophischen zu verstehen, insofern er das „wie“ der medienphilosophischen Fragestellung in den Mittelpunkt rückt. Medien werden nicht erst dann zu einem wesentlichen Bestandteil von Flussers Philosophie, wenn er sie explizit zum Gegenstand seiner Untersuchungen der gegenwärtigen Kultur und Gesellschaft oder historischer Rückblicke macht; Denken vollzieht sich immer in Medien oder medialen Praktiken, es wird nicht nur von ihnen (mit) geprägt – ohne Medien gäbe es kein Denken und umgekehrt verändert sich Philosophie mit den (jeweils) neuen Medien. Ausgehend von Begriffen oder eher Denkfiguren, die neben dem „was“ des jeweils verhandelten Themas auch das „wie“ der Reflexion selbst adressieren, wird der „Umbruch in der Struktur des Denkens“ zugleich als Beschreibung von Medienumbrüchen verstanden – mit dem Fluchtpunkt des Sprungs in das Universum der Komputation – und als Vollzug der gegenwärtigen Veränderung der „Methode des Denkens“. Flussers (Ver)Suche einer Reflexion, die nicht mehr durch das Medium Schrift strukturiert ist, sondern sowohl alten Medien wie dem Bild – bzw. Praktiken des Abbildens, Darstellens, Einbildens usw. – als auch neuen Medien – dem Komputieren – Geltung verschafft, laufen auf eine widersprüchliche Diagnose des neuen Universums der Komputation (anders: der technischen Bilder) hinaus : eine kybermetisch inspirierte Vision der frei modellierbaren Wirklichkeit(en) einerseits und die Dystopie einer Welt, in der Apparaten Denken, Wahrnehmen und Handeln beherrschen andererseits. Die Arbeit zeigt auf, wie Flusser zu dieser Aporie der Medienreflexion – die weit über Flussers Werk hinaus virulent bleibt – gelangt und wie sie, ausgehend von seiner Figur der Geste, im Sinne einer performativen Medienreflexion gelöst werden könnte.

I argue that architectural heritage is a medium where specific cultural and social decisions form its way of presentation, and it reflects the values and interests of the period. By the process of remembering and forgetting, the meanings between inhabitant and object in urban environment are practiced, and the meanings are created. To enable the research in narrative observation, cultural tourism management is chosen as the main research object, which reflects the alteration of interaction between the architectural heritage and urban identity. Identifying the role of heritage management, the definition of social resilience and the prospects of cultural heritage as a means of social resilience are addressed. Case region of the research is East Ger- many, thereby, the study examines the distinct approaches and objectives regarding heritage management under the different political systems along the German reunification process. The framework is based on various theoretical paradigms to investigate the broad research questions: 1) What is the role of historic urban quarters in the revitalisation of East German towns? 2) How was the transition processed by cultural heritage management? 3) How did policy affect residents’ lives? The case study is applied to macro level (city level: Gotha and Eisenach) and micro level study (object level: specific heritage sites), to analyse the performance of selective remembering and making tourist destination through giving significance to specific heritage. By means of site observations, archival research, qualitative inter- views, photographs, and discourse analysis on printed tourism materials, the study demonstrates that certain sites and characteristics of the city enable creating and focusing messages, which aids the social resilience. Combining theory and empirical studies this thesis attempts to widen the academic discussion regarding the practice of remembering and forgetting driven by cultural heritage. The thesis argues for cultural heritage tourism as an element of social resilience and one that embraces the historic and cultural identity of the inhabitants.
