| dc.description.abstract | Present urban development processes – both in cities aspiring to become metropolitan centres and in smaller ones having different functions in the settlement network – are increasingly related to the concept of regeneration. This concept – frequently mistaken for restoration and modernisation of city structures – has become a part of the urban development cycle, defined by Klaassen already decades ago, and has become common practice since then in many cities around the globe. The urban regeneration concept is frequently associated with problems of preservation and rehabilitation of heritage areas, which are often in need of serious actions to regain their original values and functions. But this process – happening within the circumstances of the liberal development paradigm, globalisation trends and other associated phenomena – has to be associated not only with a proper assessment of the historic importance of the site, but also with its commercial value and possible ways of increasing it. This approach demands to take into account issues such as site identity and the value of the authentic elements of heritage structures. Both can have a certain value, not only symbolic but also economic, thus both of these have to be a part of comprehensive regeneration and development policies. | |
