Būsto projektai kaip nauja erdvė posocialistiniame mieste / ; Housing developments as a new space in the postsocialist city.
Socially formed urban spaces express visions of city development and structure the social processes themselves. Although a direct correspondence between the vision of urban planners and the use of the space never occurs, the analysis of the vision reveals the direction of urban development and the ideologies that dominate it. Liberalisation of the housing sector, the retreat of the state and the municipality from the housing politics after the fall of state socialism, the transference of responsibility for producing and distributing space towards the private sector, shifting roles of the space producers: all of these contributed to new urban expansion tendencies in post-socialist cities. On the one hand, more and more researches reveal a dynamics of residential differentiation – growing differentiation with remaining levels of “diversity” – in post-socialist Vilnius; on the other hand, new urban-architectural forms proliferate in the city. Differentiation in space and space differentiation raise issues of the sociospatial shift of the post-socialist city. The dissertation adds the missing pieces to the residential differentiation researches: future-oriented project of urban development is analysed, as well as the vision of the good life in the city. The starting point is the shifting diversity of the post-socialist city, discovered in the residential differentiation researches; the opaque notion of diversity that saturates urban studies is conceptualised in order to interpret the post-socialist urban development vision. The object of the dissertation is new housing developments: they are investigated as representations of space defined by Henri Lefebvre, i.e., “discourses on space”, invented or imagined space, space created by space-forming experts, an offer of the post-socialist urban lifestyle. Analysing the discourse of diversity leads to localising in it the post-socialist city vision established through the architectural-urbanist practices of housing. Typology of housing developments is charted, housing ...
