So ograjene skupnosti za stanovalce nepogrešljive?Ograjene skupnosti oziroma stanovanjske soseske z omejenim dostopom so po svetu vse bolj razširjene. Raziskava se osredotoča na ograjeni skupnosti v Dijarbakirju, enem od največjih mest na jugovzhodu Turčije. V njej avtorja preučujeta stopnjo zadovoljstva in preference prebivalcev teh skupnosti. Ugotovitve kažejo visoko stopnjo zadovoljstva med stanovalci in razkrivajo, da se ljudje za življenje v teh skupnostih v glavnem odločajo zaradi varnosti in prestiža. Rezultati poleg tega kažejo, da se dolgoletni prebivalci OS bojijo živeti zunaj tovrstnih sosesk, kar se izraža v strahu pred selitvijo.Ključne besede: ograjena skupnost, varno območje, preference stanovalcev, stopnja zadovoljstva stanovalcev, varnost, strah pred kriminalom

“…Prejšnje raziskave so pokazale, da obstoj OS temelji na potrebi po varnosti (Blakely in Snyder, 1997;Atkinson in Flint, 2004;Grant in Mittelsteadt, 2004;Roitman, 2005, ter Asiedu in Arku, 2009. Ugotovitve te raziskave podobno kažejo, da anketiranci svoje skupnosti in hiše dojemajo kot varne (90 % oziroma 93 %).…”

“…They set the agenda and gave the phenomenon a definition, emphasizing the public restriction to the housing area secured by fences, walls and gates that, to some degree, include common resources available only to the residents (Blakely and Snyder 1997: 2). Since then, gated communities have been observed in other countries, including Spain, France and Portugal (Atkinson and Flint 2004;Glasze et al 2006), South Africa (Jt‹ rgens and Landman 2007), China (Wu 2005) and Brazil (Caldeira 1996), to mention some.…”

Urban policy and the rise of gated housing in post-socialist Poland

The aim of this article is to investigate regulations regarding housing and spatial planning to determine the extent to which these have influenced the development of gated housing in Poland since 1989. The focus is on how government policy with regard to spatial planning and housing, together with the law on property and ownership, influences the emergence and development of gated forms of housing in the country. Legal regulation documents concerning issues of housing and spatial planning between 1990 and 2013 have been studied. The article argues that the liberal policies and legal regulation in the country is resulting in a disregard for spatial planning and housing, but also the lack of integrated urban policies. Existing spatial plans are of a consultative nature and bear no regulatory capacity, at the same time as housing programmes and spatial planning in the country is strongly in favor of private investors and new construction. All these shortcomings have created a differentiated housing market, one in which housing developers maximize their profits by constructing gated housing complexes, combined with a tendency among those who have the means to move to newly built housing behind gates. The long period of developer-friendly policies and governmental support of purchasers of new construction, have resulted in increased popularity of gated communities in Poland and their spread to many Polish cities.
