Migration, place-making and the rescaling of urban space
(2023) In European Planning Studies 31(2). p.270-286- Abstract
- The purpose of this article is to contribute to a refined perspective on how the practices of everyday life can challenge existing spatial scale relations, as well as produce new ones, and how this in turn can be addressed by planning. The investigation is based on a discussion of empirical studies dealing with the role of migrants in processes of place-making and urban transformation. In the article, we look particularly at how migrants challenge more established scale relations of certain places and cities in Nordic countries. We illustrate how cases of heterogenic place-making contest established urban scales such as the home, the neighbourhood and the city, and suggest a series of modalities that may be used in the context of urban...

The modalities include the notions of extension and compression, up- and downscaling, side-stepping and a multiple order of scales. (Less)
