Ways of residing in transformation: interdisciplinary perspectives

Profound transformations in residential practices are emerging in Europe as well as throughout the urban world.

They can be observed in the unfolding diversity of residential architecture and spatially restructured cities.

The complexity of urban and societal processes behind these changes requires new research approaches in order to fully grasp the significant changes in citizens' lifestyles, their residential preferences, capacities and future opportunities for implementing resilient residential practices.

The international case studies in this book examine why ways of residing have changed as well as the meaning and the significance of the social, economic, political, cultural, and symbolic contexts.
