TY - THES TI - The Metropolitan Area of Vienna Transitions in the Rural-urban Relationship A1 - Meer, R. van der ID - theses_frw2615 M1 - master UR - https://frw.studenttheses.ub.rug.nl/2615/ N2 - This research focuses on tracing fundamental changes within the peri-urban area of Vienna and its rural-urban relationship by using the concept of transition. By using this concept as analysis tool, presumable autonomous, uncontrolled processes don't seem that random anymore and become more understandable and foreseeable for spatial planners amongst others. The role of the spatial planner in this perspective shifts from a reactive role towards a more anticipative role. AV - public Y1 - 2009/// ER -
