Abstract:
The objective of this thesis is to contribute to the understanding of the urban
environment, more specifically its planning and governing processes through the
empirical investigation of the notion of governance. The first part of the thesis
provides the theoretical and methodological research frameworks, focusing on
continental and non-continental European context. Emphasis is placed on notions
embedded within the concept of governance, primarily decision-making and
multifaceted actions of multiple actors (participation, representation and
accountability) as well as institutional changes and rearrangements (processes of
governing, networking and partnerships).
