- W2379505296 abstract "The issues of remediation, regeneration and redevelopment of underused, abandoned, derelict and often contaminated lands and premises (so-called “brownfields”) have recently become one of the greatest challenges for municipal planners and developers. Brownfields are results of economic restructuring processes in many countries; they are perceived as potential hazards to human health and the environment, burdens degrading the value of surrounding properties, barriers to local development and contributors to urban sprawl, grounds for neighbourhood crime and other illegal activities, etc. (see e.g. Greenberg et al., 2000; Susilawati, Kelsey, 2012).The regeneration of brownfields has become more common during the last two decades since vacant developable land (or “greenfields”) is less available, more expensive and more protected in densely populated areas and as a result of emerging policies, economic instruments, and management tools supporting the regeneration processes. The increasing number of projects and research platforms, which are supported by the European Commission or by national authorities, demonstrates the increasing interest of policy makers, too. On the other hand, as the global economic recession (or at least stagnation) proceeds, investments fall, many industries disappear or are moved to countries with lower labour costs – new brownfields emerge and redevelopment is still constrained by many barriers at economic, legal, political, social and technological levels.The regeneration of brownfields is a complex and multidimensional problem that requires further interdisciplinary research. Such research should involve a variety of disciplines, such as technical sciences, environmental science, human and physical geography, economics, management and marketing, political science, sociology, law, etc. It should apply integrated approaches to create a vision of change across different stakeholder groups (politicians, developers, local communities, NGOs, researchers, experts, etc.) as well as across departmental and administrative boundaries, which constitute the scope of landscape planning and decision making to manage the required redevelopment processes as cost effective, profitable and economically, environmentally and socially sustainable.The aim of this special issue of Moravian Geographical Reports is to extend the knowledge base about the nature, scale and dynamics of brownfields evolution and to provide theoretical and methodological tools for the identification of drivers of and barriers to the brownfield regeneration process. The emphasis is placed on analyzing and conceptualizing brownfields from the geographical (or spatial) perspective. Brownfields do not exist by themselves; they are located and rooted in a certain space, which exhibits hierarchical and functional structure. The geographical environment and driving forces acting within it have caused the formation of brownfields, and at the same time, the actual existence of brownfields affects the environment in many ways. With its integrative view of the world, geography can provide a framework for conceptualizing brownfields as products of the interrelationships between places and social and ecological processes (Bjelland, 2002).Moreover, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), as an integral part of contemporary geography, can serve as a key tool for brownfields management (mapping, inventorying), control and decision support (site assessment, classification, and prioritization), and marketing (promoting revitalized sites to potential businesses – see e.g. Thomas, 2002 or Chrysochoou et al., 2012). Spatial analytical methods provided by GIS (e.g. hot spot analysis, neighbourhood-scale analysis, dispersion modelling, overlay analysis or advanced proximity analysis) have the potential to explore spatial effects of investments (how have the policies and regeneration processes affected their neighbourhoods in the sense of changing housing market conditions, local economic development, population growth, etc.) (Leigh and Coffin, 2005). They are useful for detecting evidence of environmental injustice (spatial relationship between the location of environmentally degraded brownfields and socio-demographic and health indicators of surrounding communities) (Maantay, 2002), assessing a realizable potential of brownfield sites for the development of renewable energies (Adelaja et al., 2010; Fyodorova, 2013) or to streamline the planning and decision-making process through wider public involvement (so-called public participation GIS) (Boot et al., 2001)." @default.
