By perceiving the city as a complex adaptive system, four organisational conditions for the municipal facilitation of organic area development are identified: leadership, processorientation, transparency, learning capacity. These conditions are conceptualised in the Facilitative Capacity Wheel based on the Adaptive Capacity Wheel developed by Gupta et al. (2010). The wheel is used within a multiple case study in order to assess the facilitative capacity of three municipal organisations: Groningen (Ebbingekwartier), Amsterdam (Cruquiusgebied), and Assen (Havenkwartier). The study shows that enabling rules, external-orientation, and experimentation have the highest positive effect on municipal facilitation of organic area development. date: 2015 date_type: published thesis_type: master degree_programme: EIP tutors_name: W.S.
