Urban revitalization is a long process, and its success depends on
social innovations. Just as with technological developments, it is
almost impossible to predict which social innovations will be
effective. Only in retrospect can we say, something special has
happened here - and it's been going on for a long time."The
Challenge of Social Innovation in Urban Revitalization" looks at
bottom up initiatives, where residents and local organizations took
charge and took risks to improve their living conditions and to
build a new future. The book presents case studies of a series of
initiatives which have borne fruit over a long period of time: the
revitalized industrial areas of Montreal, those of Mondragon in the
Basque country, the Eldonian projects in Liverpool, the search for
urban scenarios in Jerusalem, as well as cases in Nicaragua, Peru,
France, the Netherlands and EU-wide projects.
