TY - THES A1 - Motalebi, Mahgol T1 - Immigrant's Home in the Making through Spatial Practice; The Case of Iranians in Berlin N2 - Due to the significant number of immigrants in Europe, especially Germany, integration is an ongoing subject of debate. Since the 1970s, with the emergence of the discussions on ‘place,’ it has also been realized that the immigrant experience is associated with location. Nevertheless, due to the challenges in capturing the place and migration relevance, there is a gap in understanding the role of the migrant’s geography of experiences and its outcomes (Phillips & Robinson, 2015). This research aims to investigate the extent to which both the process of objective integration and the socio-spatial practices of high-skilled Iranian immigrants in Berlin outline and influence their sense of belonging to Berlin as the new “home.” The embedded mixed-method design had employed for this study. The quantitative analysis through Pearson’s correlation technique measured the strength of the association between Iranians’ settlement distribution and the characteristics of Berlins’ districts. The quantitative analysis provides contextual data to get a greater level of understanding of the case study’s interaction with place. The units of place intend to demonstrate the case study’s presence and possible interaction with places around their settlement location that relatively shapes their perception. The qualitative analysis comprises ethnographic fieldwork and semi-structured in-depth interviews with a homogeneous sample of Iranian immigrants in Berlin that provide data on individual and ethnic behaviors and trajectories and analyze the complex interactions between the immigrant’s experience and the role of place. This research uncovers that Iranian highly skilled immigrants are successful in integrating objectively; However, in regards to their state of belonging, it illustrated the following: The role of socio-ethnic culture of the case study in denotation of home and belonging; Iranian high-skilled immigrants’ efforts towards reaching a level of upward mobility overshadow their attempt to shape social and spatial interaction with Berliners and Berlin itself, which manifests both in their perception and use of urban space; and finally, the identification practice and the boundary-making as an act of reassurance and self-protection against the generalization of adjacent nationalities, demonstrated in the intersection of demographical settlement distribution of Iranians in Berlin and the ethnic diversity, impact the sense of belonging and place-making.

Der Zugang zum Gegenstand verbindet Fragen der Stadtsoziologie und der Denkmalforschung. Im sozialen Feld der Stadterneuerung wird die Revitalisierung des ehemals von Leerstand und Rückbau betroffenen Baubestandes ausgehandelt. Die Positionen der Akteur:innen im Feld werden durch ihre Ausstattung mit ökonomischem, aber auch sozialem und kulturellem Kapital bestimmt. Angehörige der Planungs- und Denkmalbehörden verfügen über institutionalisiertes Kulturkapital und stehen damit Kleineigentümer:innen, häufig Autodidakt:innen, gegenüber. Baudenkmale können über ihre Funktion als Geldanlage und Wohnraum hinaus Status repräsentieren und symbolisch angeeignet werden. Denkmalschutz dient dem öffentlichen Interesse am Erhalt historischer Bausubstanz. Bei Sanierungen bestehen die Herausforderungen der Vereinbarkeit von Konservierung und Modernisierung, der Finanzierbarkeit für Eigentümer:innen und der Sozialverträglichkeit für Bewohnende. Eine Darstellung der historischen Entwicklung des Leipziger Ostens zu Beginn der Analyse veranschaulicht die Abhängigkeit kultureller, sozialer und ökonomischer Werte des Baubestandes vom jeweiligen gesellschaftlichen Kontext. Planerische Konzepte für das Gebiet zeigen, dass eine sozioökonomische Stabilisierung und Imageverbesserung erreicht werden sollte durch das Aufgreifen von Potentialen, wie den denkmalgeschützten Bauten, dem zuziehenden alternativen Milieu und migrantischer Ökonomie. Es wird deutlich, dass nach einer initialen Ansässigkeit von Pionier:innen die öffentlichen Infrastrukturmaßnahmen und Denkmalausweisungen eine Inwertsetzung v. a. durch externe Anlegende vorbereiteten. Darauf aufbauend wurden anhand einer qualitativen Befragung die Erfahrungen von städtischen Mitarbeitenden, Fachleuten und im Quartier Engagierten denen von lokalen migrantischen Hausbesitzenden und im Bereich Sanierung Tätigen gegenübergestellt. Migrant:innengruppen haben den Stadtraum in einer Phase vorherrschender Abwanderung durch die Eröffnung von Geschäften und Institutionen sowie den Erwerb von Immobilien für sich erschlossen. Strukturelle Benachteiligungen, wie Diskriminierung auf dem Arbeitsmarkt, ihre Ansässigkeit im sozial stigmatisierten Gebiet sowie geringes ökonomisches Kapital versuchten sie durch den Einsatz von sozialem Kapital auszugleichen. Sanierungen erfolgten mit hoher Eigenleistung und Rückgriff auf private Netzwerke. Die Analyse des Erneuerungsprozesses im Leipziger Osten zeigt, dass in einer initialen Phase Pionier:innen von Planenden und der Denkmalpflege als essentiell für die Entwicklung angesehen wurden. Günstige Instandsetzungen durch Kleineigentümer:innen wurden akzeptiert, um Gebäude vor weiterem Verfall zu bewahren. Mit der zunehmenden Forderung nach Verwendung hochwertiger Materialen werden die Sanierungsleistungen nach ästhetischen und letztlich ökonomischen Kriterien bewertet. Gegenüber sozialen Folgen einer Aufwertung von Bausubstanz lässt sich eine unkritische Haltung der Denkmalpflege erkennen. Bei der Vermarktung der Bestände durch professionelle Investierende findet die Sozialgeschichte des Stadtteils wenig Berücksichtigung, positiv besetzte Merkmale des Quartiers, wie Multikulturalität werden selektiv aufgegriffen. Der Anteil migrantischer Akteur:innen an der Entwicklung wird durch die Öffentlichkeit unzureichend anerkannt. Auch die Wertschätzung von Planenden und im Quartier Engagierten erfolgt v. a. anhand des ökonomischen Status. Hohe Erwartungen an die Geschäftsstruktur und die Erscheinung des Straßenbildes können nicht erfüllt werden. Migrantische Hausbesitzende und im Bereich Sanierung Tätige benötigen für die Auseinandersetzung mit der Denkmalpflege kulturelles Kapital. Sie erkennen die Bedeutung des historischen Baubestandes für die Stadt und die Arbeit der Institution an, kritisieren jedoch Sanierungsauflagen bzw. Mitarbeitende der Denkmalpflege und können sich z. T. gegen diese behaupten. Lokale migrantische Kleineigentümer:innen leisten durch ihre Quartiersbindung einen Beitrag zur ökonomischen und sozialen Stabilisierung. Mit ihrer Aufstiegsorientierung fördern sie in der Vermietungspraxis jedoch nur bedingt die Integration anderer Migrant:innen und grenzen sich von statusniedrigen Gruppen im Quartier ab. Migrantische Hausbesitzende und Unternehmende nehmen sich selbst als erfolgreiche Vorreitende in einer heterogener werdenden ostdeutschen Stadtgesellschaft wahr. Sie erkannten frühzeitig das Entwicklungspotential und gehören zu den Initiierenden und Profitierenden der Inwertsetzung.

El Caso de barrio Güemes 2000-2016 T1 - Continuities, tensions and breakdowns in the inhabit practices, in the framework of the transformations of 'traditional' neighborhoods. The case of Güemes neighborhood 2000-2016 N2 - El presente trabajo se inscribe en el campo de los estudios urbanos y plantea como ejes estructurantes la intersección entre las políticas públicas, el barrio y las prácticas del habitar (de Certeau, 1996, 1999; Gravano, 2003) en el marco de las transformaciones del espacio urbano en los barrios pericentrales, también denominados tradicionales de la ciudad de Córdoba, particularmente lo acontecido en Barrio Güemes, durante el periodo 2010-2016. El propósito del abordaje se inscribe en conocer y realizar aportes generalizables a la comprensión de las prácticas del habitar como unidad de análisis. En ese marco, el problema de investigación se formula en el siguiente interrogante: ¿cómo se modifican las prácticas del habitar en el marco de las transformaciones urbanas, en un modo de producción capitalista? Se entiende a las prácticas como acciones elementales de las “artes de hacer” que las personas ordinarias ponen en marcha en su vida cotidiana: para circular, cocinar, trabajar, vincularse. También, a través de las mismas resignifican los espacios, les otorgan una valoración (positiva o negativa), se identifican como parte de la identidad y a su vez se reconocen lugares de (des)encuentro y vías de circulación. Para su abordaje se toma como unidad de estudio el caso de barrio Güemes. El recorte espacial (o físico) del trabajo empírico está localizado en la ciudad de Córdoba, y se sitúa en la periferia del área central. Esta localización permite comprender el surgimiento de las primeras expansiones urbanas como consecuencia del crecimiento demográfico y cómo estas, se transformaron en los primeros barrios. El recorte temporal se encuentra delimitado entre los años 2000 y 2016, respaldado intencionalmente por dos acontecimientos significativos: el censo de población (2001) y la celebración del Bicentenario de la Independencia en Argentina. Los cambios materializados en ciertos espacios urbanos, tanto en ciudades latinoamericanas (Buenos Aires, Salvador de Bahía en Brasil, México Distrito Federal, etc.) como en otras partes del mundo (New Orleans en los Estados Unidos, el distrito de Kreuzberg- Friedrichshain en Berlín, el puerto de Hamburgo en Alemania, etc.) demuestran cómo estos espacios se van transformado acorde al modo de reproducción capitalista. Pues, se trataba de espacios que en algún momento cumplieron funciones económicas-sociales jerarquizadas y luego por la dinámica misma del capitalismo, la sobreacumulación, dejan de ser rentables y pasan a ser espacios “obsoletos”. En ese sentido, la omisión de acciones públicas y/o privadas, la desatención y el crecimiento de situaciones sociales conflictivas (delitos, inseguridad, degradación) en estos espacios, funciona como argumento para que los gobiernos locales comiencen a planear el futuro y modernizarlos. De esta manera, se plantean políticas urbanas con el objetivo de impulsar acciones de renovación o rehabilitación para dinamizar económicamente determinados sectores. Dos elementos discursivos aparecen como posibilitadores del proceso de renovación urbana: el turismo y el patrimonio. En ese sentido, bajo la recuperación patrimonial de ciertos lugares se dinamizan los territorios, por lo que el turismo se vuelve una herramienta económica que produce un excedente de plusvalía. La puesta en valor de bienes tangibles e intangibles atrae la afluencia de visitantes y, a la vez, es rentable económicamente. Ahora bien, muchas veces los proyectos tienen en cuenta las variables morfológicas y físicas, dejando en un segundo plano el impacto en el espacio próximo y las relaciones entre los habitantes con su territorio. Actualmente los espacios elegidos por los municipios para la intervención pública y/o privada son los barrios, puesto que son espacios cercanos al centro y considerados estratégicos. Por lo general, el argumento es la necesidad de rehabilitar/renovar zonas poco aprovechadas o degradadas con el objetivo de mejorar la calidad de vida de la población y dinamizar el sector (Brites, 2017; Guevara, 2012). Desde los 2000 el barrio Güemes asiste a un proceso de crecimiento inusitado. La cantidad de artesanos se disparó y variedad de productos ofrecidos, emergieron los comercios que forman parte de la oferta comercial, gastronómica y cultural del barrio. Hace varios años, presenta nuevos actores económicos que se pueden observar en la apertura de galerías comerciales; ubicadas sobre el eje de las calles Belgrano, Achával Rodríguez, Fructuoso Rivera y la creciente aparición de edificaciones alrededor de la feria artesanal histórica; con la venta y exposición de piezas del arte plástico, gastronomía, negocios de diseñadores cordobeses y hasta la inclusión de la idea del del “desarrollo sustentable” en los techos de las galerías. La modificación del corpus normativo, la aparición de edificación en altura y el boom económico tuvieron como resultado, la valorización del suelo urbano, la retroalimentación en el espacio con el emplazamiento de nuevas actividades comerciales y servicios culturales. A la par, en el espacio barrial se presentan nuevos residentes con otros hábitos y prácticas que ponen en disputa los modos de habitar en el espacio. A riesgo de simplificar, estas transformaciones fueron producto de los cambios políticoideológicos, de los modelos e instrumentos de gestión urbana puestos en juego en los diversos momentos históricos y de las propias prácticas sociales y culturales de los habitantes. De esta manera, se centrará la mirada analítica en las transformaciones de las prácticas del habitar de los pobladores de los Barrios Güemes, en el marco de la metamorfosis del espacio urbano (atravesado por tendencias de mediatización y mercantilización de la experiencia) que conjugó un proceso de intersección y asociatividad entre políticas públicas y expansión inmobiliaria. N2 - This work is part of the field of urban studies and proposes as structuring axes the intersection between public policies, the neighborhood and the inhabit practices (de Certeau, 1996, 1999; Gravano, 2003) in the framework of the transformations of the urban space in the pericentral neighborhoods, also known as traditional neighborhoods in the city of Córdoba, particularly what happened in Barrio Güemes, during the period 2010-2016. The purpose of the approach is inscribed in knowing and making generalizable contributions to the understanding of the inhabit practices as a unit of analysis. In this framework, the research problem is formulated in the following question: how are living practices modified in the framework of urban transformations, in a capitalist mode of production? The practices are understood as elementary actions of the "arts of doing" that ordinary people implement in their daily lives: to circulate, to cook, to work, to connect. Also, through them they resignify the spaces, give them an assessment (positive or negative), identify themselves as part of the identity and, in turn, recognize places of (dis) encounter and circulation path. For this approach, the case of Güemes neighborhood is taken as a unit of study. The spatial (or physical) clipping of the empirical work is located in the city of Córdoba, and is located on the periphery of the central area. This location allows us to understand the emergence of the first urban expansions as a consequence of demographic growth and how these were transformed into the first neighborhoods. The temporary cut is delimited between the years 2000 and 2016, intentionally supported by two significant events: the population census (2001) and the celebration of the Bicentenario de la Independencia de Argentina (Bicentennial of Independence in Argentina). The changes materialized in certain urban spaces, both in Latin American cities (Buenos Aires, Salvador de Bahía in Brazil, Mexico City, etc.) and in other parts of the world (New Orleans in the United States, the district of Kreuzberg-Friedrichshain in Berlin, the port of Hamburg in Germany, etc.) demonstrate how these spaces are transformed according to the capitalist mode of reproduction. Since these were spaces that at some point fulfilled hierarchical economic- social functions and later, due to the very dynamics of capitalism, the over-accumulation, they stopped being profitable and became “obsolete” spaces. In this sense, the omission of public and / or private actions, the neglect and growth of conflictive social situations (crime, insecurity, degradation) in these spaces, works as an argument for local governments to start planning the future and modernizing them. In this way, urban policies are proposed with the aim of promoting renovation or rehabilitation actions to economically boost certain sectors. Two discursive elements appear as enablers of the urban renewal process: tourism and patrimony. In this sense, under the patrimonial recovery of certain places, the territories are made more dynamic, so that tourism becomes an economic tool that produces an excess of surplus value. The punt in value of tangible and intangible assets attracts the influx of visitors and, at the same time, is economically profitable. However, projects often take into account morphological and physical variables, leaving in the background the impact on the nearby space and the relationships between the inhabitants and their territory. Currently the spaces chosen by the municipalities and for public and/or private intervention are the neighborhoods, since they are spaces close to the center and considered strategic. In general, the argument is the need to rehabilitate or renovate little-used or degraded areas in order to improve the quality of life of the population and boost the sector (Brites, 2017; Guevara, 2012). Since the 2000s, the neighborhood has witnessed an unusual growth process. The number of craftsmen skyrocketed and the variety of products offered, the businesses that are part of the commercial, gastronomic and cultural offer of the neighborhood emerged. For several years, it has introduced new economic actors that can be observed in the opening of commercial galleries; located on the axis of the streets Belgrano, Achával Rodríguez, Fructuoso Rivera and the growing appearance of buildings around the historic artisan fair; where it is sold and exhibited different pieces of plastic art, gastronomy, businesses of cordobes designers and even the inclusion of the idea of "sustainable development" in the ceilings of the galleries. The modification of the normative corpus, the appearance of high-rise buildings and the economic boom resulted in: the valorization of urban land, feedback in space with the location of new commercial activities and cultural services. At the same time, new residents appeared in the neighborhood space with other habits and practices that dispute the ways of living in the place. At the risk of simplification, these transformations were the product of the political-ideological changes, of the urban management models and instruments put into play in the various historical moments, and of the inhabitants' own social and cultural practices. In this way, the analytical look will focus on the transformations of the inhabitat practices of the residents of the Güemes neighbourhood, within the framework of the metamorphosis of the urban space (crossed by tendencies of mediatization and commercialization of the experience) that combined a process of intersection and associativity between public policies and real estate expansion.

To answer that, the city needs to be recognized as both a physical and a social entity and urban theory and practice need to connect these (Hillier 2007). The present research aims to re-examine the complex correlation between spatial and social inequality manifestations in the city of Tehran regarding the concept of segregation. It observes the causes and consequences of segregation in Tehran and provides an insight into both concepts of socio-spatial segregation and neighborhood effects and creates a link between them. First, I argue when, where, and for whom spatial locations affect the chances of social networks in Tehran. Then, I discuss how neighborhood effects can emerge via social network mechanisms and thus affect the perceptions of residents in the neighborhoods.

Parallel zur schnell voranschreitenden Entwicklung alltäglicher Geräte, die mitgeführt werden, setzt der Übergang der bereits länger dauernden Entwicklung von Virtual-Reality-Technik in eine erweiterte und augmentierte Mixed Reality ein. In diesem Spannungsfeld untersucht die vorliegende Arbeit, inwieweit richtungsgebundene und binaural wiedergegebene Stereofonie die menschliche Bewegung im Raum beeinflussen kann und versucht zu erörtern, welche Potenziale in der Wiederentdeckung einer relativ lange bekannten Technik liegen. Der Autor hat im Rahmen dieser Arbeit eine binaurale mobile Applikation für richtungsgebundene Stereofonie entwickelt, mit der virtuelle bewegte oder statische Audio-Hotspots im Raum platziert werden können. So kann links, rechts oder 30 Meter vor einer Person ein virtueller oder tatsächlicher Klang im Raum verortet sein. Durch die in Echtzeit berechnete binaurale Wiedergabe der Klangquellen mit einem Stereo-Kopfhörer können diese räumlich verorteten Klänge mit zwei Ohren dreidimensional wahrgenommen werden, ähnlich dem räumlichen Sehen mit zwei Augen. Durch den Einsatz mehrerer lokalisierter Klangquellen als Soundscape entsteht eine augmentierte auditive Realität, die die physische Realität erweitert. Die Position und Navigation des Nutzers wird durch binaurale Lautstärkenmodulation (die Lautstärke nimmt bei abnehmender Distanz zur Quelle zu) und Stereopanning mit Laufzeitmodulation (die Richtung wird über ein Stereosignal auf beiden Ohren räumlich links-rechts-vorne verortet) interaktiv und kybernetisch beeinflusst. Die Nutzer navigieren — durch ihr Interesse an den hörbaren virtuellen Klangquellen geleitet — durch einen dynamisch erzeugten, dreidimensionalen akustischen Raum, der gleichzeitig ein virtueller und kybernetischer Raum ist, da die Repräsentation der Klänge an die Bewegung und Ausrichtung der Nutzer im Raum angepasst wird. Diese Arbeit untersucht, ob die Bewegung von Menschen durch (virtuelle) Klänge beeinflusst werden kann und wie groß oder messbar dieser Einfluss ist. Dabei können nicht alle künstlerischen, architektonischen und philosophischen Fragen im Rahmen der vorliegenden Schrift erörtert werden, obwohl sie dennoch als raumtheoretische Fragestellung von Interesse sind. Hauptgegenstand der vorliegenden Arbeit liegt in der Erforschung, ob richtungsgebundene Stereofonie einen relevanten Beitrag zur menschlichen Navigation, hauptsächlich zu Fuß, in urbanen Gebieten — vorwiegend im Außenraum — leisten kann. Der erste Teil gliedert sich in »Raum und Klang«, es werden raumtheoretische Überlegungen zur menschlichen Bewegung im Raum, Raumvorstellungen, räumliche Klänge und Klangwahrnehmung sowie die Entwicklung stereofoner Apparaturen und Aspekte der Augmented Audio Reality besprochen. Im zweiten Teil werden drei Demonstratoren als Anwendungsszenarien und drei Evaluierungen im Außenraum vorgestellt. Die Tests untersuchen, ob sich das Verfahren zur Navigation für Fußgänger eignet und inwieweit eine Einflussnahme auf das Bewegungsverhalten von Nutzern getroffen werden kann. Die Auswertungen der Tests zeigen, dass sich stereofone Klänge grundsätzlich als Navigationssystem eignen, da eine große Mehrzahl der Teilnehmer die akustisch markierten Ziele leicht gefunden hat. Ebenso zeigt sich ein klarer Einfluss auf die Bewegungsmuster, allerdings ist dieser abhängig von individuellen Interessen und Vorlieben. Abschließend werden die Ergebnisse der Untersuchungen im Kontext der vorgestellten Theorien diskutiert und die Potenziale stereofoner Anwendungen in einem Ausblick behandelt. Bei der Gestaltung, Erzeugung und Anwendung mobiler Systeme sind unterschiedliche mentale und räumliche Modelle und Vorstellungen der Entwickler und Anwender zu beachten. Da eine umfassende transdisziplinäre Betrachtung klare Begrifflichkeiten erfordert, werden Argumente für ein raumtheoretisches Vokabular diskutiert. Diese sind für einen gestalterischen Einsatz von richtungsgebundener Stereofonie — besonders im Kontext mobiler Navigation durch akustisch augmentierte Räume — äußerst relevant.

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.

A morphological urban analysis of Zamālik, Ma‘ādī, and Heliopolis N2 - During the British occupation of Egypt in the beginning of the 20th century, several suburban developments were established on the periphery of the city of Cairo. These initially attracted the small British community and later foreigners and Egyptians, mainly from the elite community. These suburban developments, including Ma‘ādī, Zamālik, Heliopolis, Qubbah-Gardens, and Garden City, became the fashionable residential quarters of Cairo. Until now, some of these areas still represent the distinguishable residential settlements of the city. Ma‘ādī, Zamālik, and Heliopolis specifically are nostalgically appropriated in the design of recent suburban developments around Greater Cairo. Some of the 20th century suburban developments around Cairo are labeled or described as “garden cities.” During the early 20th century, two thriving British town planning movements emerged, namely, the garden city movement and the garden suburb movement. This study investigates the hypothesis that these suburban developments, are indeed “garden suburbs” like the British movement, despite that few are labeled or described as “garden cities,”. Although several studies have examined the historical development of such settlements, their relation, however, to the British planning movements and their transfer process received little attention from planning historians. Few studies also analyze the urban design aspects that made these suburban developments distinguishable since their foundation and until today. To guide the validity of this study’s hypothesis, a set of research questions are formulated: (1) What is the difference between the garden city and the garden suburb movements? (2) How were the British planning movements transferred to Egypt? (3) What are the urban design aspects that makes these suburban developments distinguishable as garden suburbs? To answer these research questions, a historical morphological urban analysis is conducted through case studies. The study first studies the difference between the garden city and the garden suburb movements, mainly in Britain, through the analysis of publications on the promoter of both movements: for the garden city, E. Howards’ book “The Garden City of Tomorrow,” published in 1902, and for the garden suburb, R. Unwin’s books “Town Planning in Practice,” published in 1909, and “Nothing Gained from Overcrowding,” published in 1912. Then a morphological urban analysis of Letchworth Garden City and Brentham Garden Suburb, considered the first examples of each movement, is conducted. In order to analyze the transfer process, the study adopts M. Volait and J. Nasr’s theory on transporting planning, through investigating the authority in power responsible for the establishment of these suburban developments. This is followed by the morphological urban analysis of three suburban developments around Cairo, namely, Zamālik, Ma‘ādī, and Heliopolis. The morphological analysis focuses on the background of their establishment, authority in power responsible for the development, design principles, urban context, street typology, residential block typology, social infrastructure, and social target group. Finally, the study compares between Brentham, Letchworth, Zamālik, Ma‘ādī, and Heliopolis. The comparative analysis aims to highlight the differences between the studied cases of Cairo and how they are different from or alike the British movements. This study concludes that the suburban developments around Cairo during the British occupation, are in fact garden suburbs, despite that some are being described or labeled as garden city. This movement was exported via urban land development companies with foreign European capital, rather than via colonial dominance. It finally highlights a set of urban design aspects that distinguish them as garden suburbs of Cairo. This study hopes to support future conservation plan of these areas and the design of future suburban developments.

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.

An ‎approach was clear in ‎the literature, art, further in the way of rebuilding their cities; that mainly ‎has reflected on the ‎value of urban spaces and their role in narrating the country’s national ‎memory. Thanks to this ‎approach, which has supported the post-war European nations to invite ‎to an act of ‎ forgiveness rather than to forget. ‎ On the contrary, memory, in relation to architecture is a form of knowledge has been ‎neglected in Egypt, especially during the previous decades after the declaration of independence ‎from the colonial power, and since 1952 revolution. Recently, a rising debate about Egypt ‎national history and the need to renationalize the Egyptian historical consciousness has rapidly ‎grown up, due to the political transformation has occurred because of the 25th uprising, 2011, ‎which unveiled the power of public spaces in constituting the nation thoughts, especially Tahrir ‎square.‎ At the same time, this has unveiled the results of neglecting the past instead of overcoming it; unveiled a present carries the danger of conflict and repeating previous mistakes. Researchers, historians, politicians, governmental organization, have ‎worked in the purpose of revisiting the historical information, and have tried to document the ‎current transformation of the 25th uprising. There was a public demand for redesigning Tahrir square to reflect the ‎memory of the uprising as a symbol of the power of the public. However, after eight years, those ‎memories have faded as if the 25th uprising has never happened. ‎ Those circumstances are very relevant to the gap between urban design and the art of ‎memory-work, in the scientific field. Few studies in Egypt conducted the concept of memory in ‎relation to urban spaces, however, the matter requires more attention, to associate the need for renationalizing Egypt ‎memory, with viewing urban space as a mean of narrating the country’s national memory and ‎reflecting the citizens' current thoughts, as a try of nearing the distances between ‎competing ‎narratives. Therefore, the research aims at developing a methodological framework that should ‎contribute to renationalizing memory through urban space. Further, benefiting from the German experience by investigating lessons to learn. That is based on the hypothesis that, although there is no fixed formula for all countries to renationalize the historical ‎consciousness of memory through urban spaces, lessons to be learned from Germany experience ‎could be a driving dimension when designing Egyptian urban spaces with a concept of memory ‎as an essential factor. To guide the validity of the study’s hypothesis, a set of research questions are thus ‎formulated: Starting from why memory is an essential factor when designing urban spaces? ‎Regarding Egypt national memory, how it was constituted through history and how to read its ‎representation on urban spaces? Also, the study quests the means of nationalizing memory ‎through urban spaces? And What are the learned lessons from the German experience?‎ The study tries to answer those questions. Via an inductive ‎analytical ‎methodology ‎which ‎moves from the gap of knowledge and from a particular situation ‎in Egypt, to study the German ‎experience in renationalizing the concept of memory through urban spaces.‎ ‎ Within the scope of the study, exploring Egypt prevailing narratives and the inherited ‎concepts which influenced the national memory is essential. Moreover, the research develops ‎analytical political psychosocial model that could help reading memories in urban spaces, ‎memory’s actors, and memory influences. To validate this model, case studies are analysed in ‎light of the concluded aspects. Consequently, the expected result is to infer broad general ‎learned ‎lessons for the Egyptian case. ‎ Research findings and conclusions answer the research questions, interpret literature ‎review, recommend some guide points to three target groups: first, practice field; to encourage ‎designers to value the national and collective memories when designing urban spaces. Second, to ‎ask policymakers to take the public participation into consideration, when taking decisions related to urban ‎development. Third, the thesis recommends future researches of urban memory that connect ‎theoretical information with the practice field. ‎ Finally, enhancing the memory-work in relation to the national narrative, conveying a meaningful message, when ‎designing urban spaces could encourage citizens to learn, to interact, and to dissolve boundaries ‎between the competing narratives in post-conflict societies.‎ KW - Erinnerung KW - Denkmal KW - Kulturerbe KW - Ägypten KW - Designing Urban National Memory KW - Reading Urban National Memory KW - Prevailing/ Competing Narratives KW - Post-Conflict society KW - Learned Lessons Y1 - 2019 U6 - http://nbn-resolving.de/urn/resolver.pl?urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20191212-40489 ER -
