This book analyses in detail half a century of international discussions on housing, slums and informal settlements, identifies policy phases (self-help, enabling) and discusses pros and cons of ...applied measures globally and in the context of Indonesia. It contributes to a better understanding of interlinkages between urban governance and housing policies by employing the analytical framework of policy arrangements, and by developing a normative compass based on Henri Lefebvre’s right to the city. Empirically, it examines and compares housing strategies (social housing, resettlements, slum upgrading) and modes of governance in two case studies, the Indonesian cities Surabaya and Surakarta.
Dieses Buch analysiert ein halbes Jahrhundert internationaler Diskussionen um Wohnraum, Slums und informelle Siedlungen, identifiziert Phasen von Wohnungspolitik (self-help, enabling) und diskutiert die Vor-und Nachteile angewandter Maßnahmen aus einer globalen und Indonesischen Perspektive. Mithilfe des Analysekonzepts der Policy Arrangements und der Entwicklung eines normativen Kompasses, der auf Henri Lefebvre’s Recht auf Stadt beruht, wird ein besseres Verständnis der Verflechtungen städtischer Governance und Wohnungspolitik erreicht. In zwei empirischen Fallstudien, den indonesischen Städten Surabaya und Surakarta, werden Wohnungsbaustrategien (sozialer Wohnungsbau, Umsiedlungen, slum-upgrading) und Formen von Governance vergleichend untersucht.

The article analyzes scientific approaches to the grouping of toponyms according to the geographical principles based on the materials of the Zhambyl region and comprehensively examines hydrographic ...terms. The importance of the study is due to insufficient work on the hydronymy of the Zhambyl region and the need to develop this direction in Kazakh science. The aim of the study is to group the hydronyms of the Zhambyl region based on geographical principles. The study used cartographic, statistical and GIS methods. Whilst analyzing hydrographic objects, 177 names of rivers were identified which were formed with the participation of indicator terms related to rivers. They were classified and grouped into the most common terms in the names of rivers such as the term sai 57%, the term su 25% and the term ozek 16%.
Methodological, organizational, legal, political and other aspects of ensuring the stability of regions and territorial communities have been studied. The best world practices in this field are ...analyzed on the examples of the formation and functioning of the security districts of the Netherlands and local sustainability forums of Great Britain. Problems and prospects of ensuring the stability of regions and territorial communities in Ukraine are identified. Recommendations for the formation of a comprehensive model of interagency cooperation and coordination of activities in the field of national security and sustainability at the regional and local levels in Ukraine are proposed. Designed for experts, scientists, specialists in the field of national security, subjects of power, representatives of public organizations and individuals, all who are interested in the problems of building national stability. The publication can also be useful in the development and adoption of regulations governing legal relations in this area.
This article deals with issues relating to the procedures for developing strategies for local communities, municipalities, and regions in the context of the contemporary postulates of a more ...integrated approach to development planning processes as well as taking into account the spatial dimension within territorially-oriented local and regional strategies. A concise discussion of the theoretical and formal premises of integrated planning in local communities and regions was made, paying attention in the first place to the fundamental differences in the functioning of private and public organisations, resulting in the necessity to adapt the instruments of strategic planning to the specific objectives of public sector organisations. It was also pointed out that municipalities, local or regional communities are public organisations of a very special nature (so-called macro level) and so a territorial self-government community is a kind of organisation of other organisations, i.e. a group of various entities related to each other by social relations and economic dependencies as well as sharing particular geographical area (land) and its natural and anthropogenic resources. It is this feature that implies the need to take into account the spatial dimension of development processes in the strategic planning of local and regional self-government entities, and thus also to appropriately address these issues in the strategic document. Such an approach i.e. integrating the socio-economic dimension of development processes with the need to act for the protection of the natural environment and taking into account the spatial dimension of both development and protection activities is also consistent with, and directly results from, the contemporary paradigm of sustainable development. With regard to the formal premises and practice of strategic planning of local and regional development, its evolution was indicated, consisting in the transition from directive planning (before 1989) to indicative planning, the use of local government strategies mainly as a tool for obtaining external financial resources (after Polands accession in 2004 to the European Union), adopting the legal basis for strategic development planning (2006), developing assumptions for the reform of the development planning system towards a more integrated approach (2009), up to the introduction (2020) of changes in the legal provisions regulating the methods of developing local and regional strategies, obliging local governments to include the spatial dimension in it. It was pointed out that despite the legislative changes of 2020, a dichotomous planning system still operates in Poland, in which a local or regional strategy is developed (albeit with spatial dimensions) and (based on separate regulations) master plans of the spatial pattern and land structure of a given local or regional territory. As from 2020, it became obligatory: 1) to include in the development strategies of local communities and regions the so-called model of the functional and spatial structure/pattern; 2) to formulate findings and recommendations in the field of managing spatial policy in the local community or region; as well as 3) to designate areas of strategic intervention. However, the legal regulations do not provide detailed guidelines on these issues, so it is reasonable to discuss the methodology of developing the model of the functional and spatial structure/pattern and its inclusion in the local or regional development strategy as its integral element. With this in mind, the article conceptualises the model of the functional and spatial structure/pattern as a spatial development that meets public interests and is to contribute to the growth of territorial capital. The essential part of the article is apart from the explanation of the very essence of the model of the functional and spatial structure/pattern the description of the authors recommendations regarding what procedures which should be used when developing a local or regional strategy in order to develop the model of the functional and spatial structure/pattern of a local community, municipality or region on the basis of the local government development objectives set in the planning process, as well as adopted tasks and strategic projects. In the final part of the article, reference is made to the issue of formulating (based on the model of the functional and spatial structure/ pattern) arrangements and recommendations in the field of managing spatial policy in local or regional government, indicating in this respect the need to reform the spatial planning system, which ought to consist in the introduction of specialised spatial instruments.
The aim of this study is to present the motivational, structural and name-forming analysis of one part of the Czech hydronymy localized in the Moravian-Silesian Region. The list of the hydronyms ...consists of 817 names and includes standardized names as well as names suitable for standardization. The names of streams and rivers, and the names of water bodies (dams, ponds, etc.) are analysed separately because they are of different characters which was actually confirmed by the analysis. The names of streams and rivers were most often motivated by the localization of the naming ob¬jects, and the names of water bodies we motivated by the nature of these objects.
Fish stocks tend to decrease in the Black Sea Region due to the gradual increase in marine pollution, overfishing and sea fillings. As a result of these negative developments, most of the people who ...make a living from fishing either quit fishing or migrate to big cities. It is assumed that the fishing tourism that has developed in recent years will play an important role in increasing the income of those who make their living in this way, creating additional employment and preventing migration to big cities. In addition, it is known that fishing tourism is an important tool in reducing overfishing and protecting marine resources by adding value to traditional fisheries. Fishing tourism is defined as the fishing of people who want to experience this experience with traditional methods on traditional fishing boats and the provision of tourism services related to fishing in general. Today, amateur fishing is seen as a very popular leisure activity, especially in western countries. For example; It is known that there are around 50 million amateur fishermen in Europe. On the other hand, it is calculated that amateur fishing can create a larger economy than commercial fishing. Most of the 3000 boats registered in the Eastern Black Sea Region are small boats. Since these boats do not have sufficient technological equipment, they cannot go to the open seas. For these reasons, the development of fishing tourism in the Eastern Black Sea Region will provide an important economic and social expansion. Because the development of fishing tourism will allow fishermen to obtain more economic income and new job opportunities.
Pre-classical period of Trabzon region has been undervalued in Anatolian Archaeology to date. Although Trabzon is one of the most important settlements on the Black Sea shore, concrete archaeological ...material dated to pre-classical period has not been recorded. This is also the case for the data about the region in ancient written sources. The local people who were referred in these sources had rather primitive life styles when compared to their contemporaneous populations, in fact, it is obvious that this is the case for the Roman period. However, Trabzon Survey Project started in 2018 has begun to change the picture of the region's remote past. The third season of the survey has been run in Maçka, Akçaabat, Düzköy, Tonya, Beşikdüzü and Şalpazarı which together compose the west half of the region. In these 20 days long season in September 2021 detection of a new cave with the lithic assemblage emphasized the increasing importance of this region in Paleolithic period. Additionally, to the north of Eastern Black Sea mountains, with re-evaluation of Kalecik Castle which was detected in 2019 for the first time, more data has been obtained related to north-east Anatolia and Caucasia in the Early Iron Age. It is evident that continuation of this survey project will contribute to the chronological perspective of the Eastern Black Sea region in Turkey.
The aim of this article is to assess the innovative potential of Polish regional economies. The article discusses various definitions of the category of innovative potential. On the path of achieving ...the goal, two taxonomic methods and a method that using transition matrices which come from the Markov chain theory were used. The analysis leads to the following conclusions. Firstly, the results confirmed the findings of other researchers that the best developed regions in terms of their ability to develop innovation are mazowiecki, dolnośląski, śląski, małopolski and wielkopolski, while the least developed regions are podlaski, warmińsko-mazurski, lubuski and opolski. Secondly, the ability to develop innovation is stable over time. The transition from the lower to the higher level takes place in multiannual cycles and is related to the effectiveness of the regional innovation ecosystem.
It is aimed to determine the availability of local and geographical indication registered food and beverage products in the menus of food and beverage businesses operating in İzmir. Based on the fact ...that local products are subject to geographical marking, an evaluation was made with the participants in the destination through the menus. The research is based on the qualitative research approach. In the research, in-depth interview method was applied by using semistructured interview form. The population of the research consists of 19 participants residing inİzmir metropolis and coastal districts that are prominent in tourism. The research sample consists of especially food and beverage businesses operating within the borders of İzmir, İzmir Chamber of Commerce manager, İzmir Metropolitan Municipality manager, association manager on gastronomy, academicians in the field of food and beverage, chefs, hotel managers and travel agency owners. As a result of the research, it has been concluded that in the central districts ofİzmir, local or geographically indicated foods and beverages are few in the menus and they are aware of by the participants, but they are given more place in the menus of the businesses operating in the districts of Urla, Seferihisar, Çeşme, Karaburun and Foça districts.
The aim of the research was to identify the links between industrial and logistic activities with the railway network in the Szczecin metropolitan area (Poland). The research area covered communes ...belonging to the Szczecin Metropolitan Area Association and several adjacent communes, closely related to them due to the route of railway lines – 18 communes in total. The railway infrastructure and investment projects related to its expansion were analysed. The current status and development prospects for rail freight in the studied area are presented. The analysis used, inter alia, unpublished data of PKP PLK on the average daily train traffic. The railway network of the research area covered almost 360 km of railway lines and over 80 railway sidings. Freight trains were serviced at 17 stations, including 12 having generally accessible loading points. The main generators of rail freight were seaports and chemical plants in Police (Poland) – as evidenced by the traffic flows (number of freight trains) on railway lines leading to freight stations serving these entities.
