TRANSITION PATHWAYS TOWARDS THE STRONG SUSTAINABILITY OF THE BRUSSELS METROPOLITAN CITY CENTRE: A PLEA FOR AN ECOSYSTEMIC APPROACH
This contribution reflects on the potential for strong sustainability resulting from the construction of the large pedestrian zone in the Brussels city centre. This so-called strong sustainability differs from weak sustainability by integrating the economic and social spheres into the environmental sphere. Evaluating whether the large pedestrian zone acts as a lever and a stimulant for such a transition first requires identifying the impacts of the transformation of public spaces on the practices of residents and users. This then invites us to examine how these forms of reconquering public space can induce new expectations and aspirations for public spaces in the city centre. This present reflection is based on feedback from some contemporary experiences in Brussels and other European city centres, as well as on foresight elements fed by methods from the fields of systems theory and ecology.
