Renovation of depressed areas using methods of transpersonal socionics

Abstract

Depressed areas are naturally degraded sections of urbanized territories. Their existence is always a cause of deterioration in social, economic and environmental conditions. Renovation of depressed areas is an activity that ensures the restoration of favorable conditions in the areas they occupy. Renovation is necessary to ensure the safety of the population and normal living conditions. There are several types of depressed areas that differ in their scale. Depressed objects are individual abandoned buildings and territories around them. Depressed urban districts include parts of the territory of cities with low or naturally declining quality of life, which is characterized by destroying buildings and structures, as well as undeveloped and unsettled sections. Depressed industrial zones are vast territories surrounding complexes of abandoned industrial enterprises. A separate type of depressed areas are ghost towns. They are considered urban-type localities with collapsing buildings and degraded infrastructure, abandoned by residents or a significant part of them. A characteristic feature of all types of depressed areas is their uncontrolled colonization by various organisms. For this reason, depressed areas can be considered as unmanageable natural and technical systems. Transpersonal socionics is an interdisciplinary science, the subject of which is the study of the interaction of various organizational structures and social groups consisting of individuals united by common interests. Such aggregate elements of society can be divided into several categories that differ in the nature of their involvement in the renovation process. They are designated as economic, territorial, technological, administrative, political, and social stakeholders. For each of the categories, the nature of risks caused by the existence of depressed areas is described. Special attention is paid to the problems of environmental risks of various categories of stakeholders. Based on the use of the principles of transpersonal socionics, a method is proposed that allows providing a systematic unified approach to the development of programs for the renovation of depressed areas on the basis of the consideration of all parties involved in this problem (stakeholders).

Importance of water objects for the sustainable development of megalopolises

“…The condition of such territories is practically not controlled. For this reason they turn into the depressed area, the polluted and littered sites, reducing the social attractiveness of the urban area, located near them [12]. According to the offered classification their social importance is usually estimated as 1-2 points.…”

Preservation of the structure of the building in the process of renovation of industrial architecture

“…-practical: renovation in the Netherlands (the authors consider the types of urban renewal in the Netherlands, classifying them into three main categories: regional renewal, reconstruction of architectural heritage and adaptive reuse) [5], Irkutsk [6], Ulan-Ude (the paper examines the case of reconstruction of objects of the former distillery in Ulan-Ude and their revival and transformation into a Center of Contemporary art) [7], Italy [8], St. Petersburg (the authors trace the use of various transformation methods -reconstruction, restoration and new construction -on the examples of St. Petersburg historical industrial objects) [9], China [10,11,12], Khabarovsk (on the example of the territory of the former Amur plant located in the southern part of the city, the possibility of replacing the old factory buildings and the adjacent territory with new, more technological and relevant industrial production for the city) [13], local reconstruction of load-bearing structures [14], standardization of industrial formations [15,16], -identity: filling the building and the surrounding area with meanings was considered in the work «Survey and preservation of an abandoned archaeological industrial site», where the authors considered the reconstruction of industrial spaces along the coast of Lazio, which are the first part of a larger urban renovation project, preserving the memory of the original structure [17], the directions of adaptation of industrial heritage to the modern context of the city [18], based on the principles of transpersonal socionics, a method is proposed, it allows us to provide a systematic unified approach to the development of programs for the renovation of depressive territories based on the consideration of all parties involved in this problem [19];…”
