Die neue Attraktivität von Städten ist ein faszinierendes Thema für Stadtplaner und -politiker, für Investoren, für Stadtnutzer und Wissenschaftler. Sie alle verfolgen aufmerksam, inwieweit unsere Städte wieder interessant werden - und haben Fragen: Ist diese neue Attraktivität der Städte mehr als eine Modeerscheinung? Erleben wir einen Perspektivwechsel zu Suburbia? Wie stellt sich das konkret in unseren städtischen Strukturen dar - mit welchen Begleiterscheinungen? Wie kann Reurbanisierung programmatisch unterstützt werden? Wie sieht es damit in Städten aus, die Reurbanisierung bereits erleben? Zu diesen Aspekten und für diese Interessenten bietet dieses Buch fundierte Grundlagen und Informationen zum Reurbanisierungsdiskurs.

Der demografische Wandel erweist sich für lokale Wohnungsmärkte als eine zentrale Herausforderung, die - jenseits vermeintlicher Megatrends - insbesondere aus seinen vielfältigen, kleinräumig differenzierten Entwicklungsprozessen resultiert, einen erhöhten Anpassungsdruck innerhalb komplexer Marktdynamiken erzeugt und zugleich vielerorts auf sinkende kommunale Handlungsspielräume trifft. Die vorliegende Untersuchung von Strategien und Instrumenten lokaler Wohnungs- und Stadtentwicklungspolitik konzentriert sich auf die Region Nordhessen jenseits der Großstadt Kassel - und damit auf einen ländlichen Raum 'zwischen den Extremen', der weder von spürbarem Wachstum noch (bislang) von drastischen Schrumpfungsprozessen gekennzeichnet ist. Es zeigt sich, dass hier nicht etwa die Probleme extremer Entwicklungsdynamiken in kleinerer Dimension auftreten, sondern mit spezifischen, teils schwer durchschaubaren Marktbedingungen, Problemverflechtungen und Handlungserfordernissen umzugehen ist. Gesucht sind vor diesem Hintergrund kleinteilige, finanzierbare, der lokalen Situation angepasste Handlungsstrategien sowie insbesondere geeignete Trägerschaften. Erforderlich werden zudem räumliche wie inhaltliche Prioritätensetzungen - und folglich auch adäquate Strategien für den Umgang mit hieraus resultierenden Ziel-, Interessen- und Ressourcenkonflikten.

In both countries, France and Germany, there is great pressure to change and adapt towards new forms of urbanity and to conceive new strategic approaches with limited public finance and a need for economic efficiency. Not all types of urban areas are equally affected by these issues. The book aims to do justice to this situation, considering in both cases the context of the national urban systems. As it proved impossible to address all the topics relevant to the spatial development of urban and rural areas, the authors decided to concentrate on a number of important topical themes which are undoubtedly relevant in both countries, albeit in different ways, and which could be significant for a comparison. The focus is thus on issues related to metropolises, small and medium-sized towns and particularly current issues of urbanity, sustainability, Smart Cities, transport and mobility, and the role of crossborder urban development. The structure of the chapters is conceived in these terms. Besides scientific and theoretical approaches, the authors also consider the practical planning perspective and methodological aspects of the topic at hand. They mainly address three relevant factors: the differences between the two institutional systems, the development paths and historical constants, and how new challenges are addressed on both sides of the border.

The shock administered to the power structure of southern and central German lands by the Peasants' War of 1524–25 had many ramifications. Among the most interesting was the further deterioration in the always tense relationship between the imperial cities of the area and the princes and nobility. This deterioration stemmed directly from a feeling on the part of the latter two groups that the imperial cities had not supported the suppression of the rebellion as fully as they might have. Indeed, despite the fact that only a few imperial cities actually cooperated in any way with the peasants, some princes charged the leadership of all imperial cities with secret support for the rebels.

Urban studies in Germany are traditionally oriented towards large cities. The structures, meanings and functions of small towns are not sufficiently perceived and differentiated in scientific or political debates. Adequate research on small towns requires systematic, comparative, inter- and transdisciplinary approaches. Traditional attributions should be questioned critically and small towns should be examined empirically in their diversity and differentiation. This involves paying attention to external influences and heterogeneous internal structures as well as to regional functions and interdependencies. The availability and generation of statistical data, which also make small-scale analyses possible, are just as necessary as more comprehensive studies, which go beyond limited case studies. Finally, also research funding and academic teaching should address small towns more systematically than it has been the case in the past. This position paper presents recommendations for research, university teaching, official statistics and research funding in the field of small town research. The Ad-hoc Working Group focused on small town research in Germany and German-language literature, respectively.
