The proposed research group analyzes current urban expansion strategies comprehensively for the first time against the background of the currently changing social and planning ideals, economic requirements and individual housing preferences in interaction with the spatial-material realities. The overarching question is how "in times of reurbanization", by which actors and at which locations urban expansion is being promoted in Germany, how the tension between current models, housing desires and practical planning constraints is being dealt with, and which demands can be implemented and why. To this end, the perspectives of urban and regional planning, open space and landscape planning, and spatial social sciences are linked in an innovative way, and all spatial levels from the plot or household to the urban region are considered. The focus is on the future of housing and small-scale coexistence, which is considered in interaction with working, recreation and transport.
