Disintegration of the city as a consequence of social degradation: Possibilities of revitalization and consolidation: Example of the town of Zemun
The main goal of this work is to identify, classify and research the problems which determine the existence of Zemun from the urbanistic point of view, by analyzing the facts in historic context of its development which were relevant for producing the present situation. The method which could provide the most useful results was the analysis of potentials and limitations of the Zemun’s urban area, considering the wide range of parameters – from geophysical to social and cultural ones. Another fact constantly kept in mind, was the pathological frame surrounding all aspects of the social life in Serbia of the 1990s, so it was possible to clearly distinguish the parameters typical for Zemun as the urban area from the ones which result from the recent social circumstances, extremely unfavourable for sustaining urbanity at all. In potentials analysis, the main nodal points of possible future development of Zemun were identified. They are based on the historical integrity of the town of Zemun, as well as on the quality of the geophysical conditions. Stress was laid on the fact that the structure of all of these parameters can rarely be seen in such a suitable and balanced composition as in the case of Zemun. The limitations analysis showed that, in terms of consequences of disintegration processes in Serbian society, the extent of devastation of the urban tissue of Zemun, which can be noticed in many aspects, is exceeding the simple sum of particular problems. It is also obvious that their basic common feature is association to violation and abuse, as well as to arbitrary, incomplete and/or tendentious interpretation of the legal regulations concerning building and managing urban space. Apart from pointing out the evident lack of understanding of the architectural economical and legal background, which are all essential for the functioning of a city, a more detailed view of the mentioned limitations gives the idea about deeper and long-term reasons which created the foundation for the processes which took place in the town during the last ten years. On the basis of the conducted analyses, and after determining the main aims, this work also recommends the instruments and activities necessary to accomplish them. The solutions were sought in the boundaries of the legal regulations current situation and facts limiting the possible range of action. This work is not, of course, capable of processing all the problems that, speaking of city planning, building and management, exist in the town of Zemun, and it is not the goal to do that. The intention is to make possible the use of classifications and suggestions presented within this work as a foundation for a more detailed analysis of particular cases, and, on the other hand, to enable a more comprehensive look at this area of interest, which is often not possible as a repercussion of state bureaucracy and overlapping of the authorities and interests among relevant institutions.
