Abstract
This research focuses on retail areas; retail areas are confronted with societal changes like increasing online shopping and economic recessions. These societal changes are in this research mentioned as exogenous factors. These changes have impact on the viability and vitality of retail areas. Retail vacancy is rising and less visitors are coming to retail areas. However, several retail areas are able to remain successful and attractive. These retail areas are described as resilient and adaptive retail areas. The aim of this study is to find out possibilities for adaptive and resilient retail areas which can cope with changing contexts. The primary question of this research is: “What are the determining factors of resilient and adaptive retail areas which can cope with changing contexts?”.
