Popis: | How is urban space produced? Planners, politicians, building companies, real estate owners, investors, entrepreneurs and citizens are all involved, but the challenge is how to describe this complex, multi-actor process. There are several, dissonant actors cooperating on emerging agendas. The construction of power between them depends on the agenda, the composition of actors and their relations. First, this article examines the relationships and coalition building amongst city officials, local politicians and business actors in the urban renewal process of Lahti during 2012–2014. Second, the analytical explanatory power of the urban regime theory will be re-evaluated in the context of contemporary Finland. The article argues that the urban regime theory, which originates from the North-American urban context in the 1980s, is a useful analytical tool to study European cities, if one takes into account the legal, economic and political differences between countries. |
