“…There is no doubt that by working on smaller ULL areas, rather than at the comprehensive city scale, one might misinterpret the real scale of issues such as the socio-spatial segregation and deprivation of Lagaccio in Genova, or the climate adaptation imperative of Dutch cities threatened by sea rise. On the other hand, ULLs are ecosystems that enable dialogues (in our case around the benefits of NBS) that aim at building hybrid understandings between different value systems (Mäntysalo and Kanninen 2013): while some stakeholders are drawn by their interest to test already available technological solutions, others focus on people empowerment, while some other are keen to expand their portfolio of NBS to other locations (see also Bulkeley et al, 2019). The experimental character of ULLs enables a broad engagement of society in developing understanding of complex urban issues.…”

“…Galisons idea of the trading zone includes devices that enable such an agonistic exchange. One such device is hybrid languages (like those shown by Mäntysalo and Kanninen (2013) in Kuopio or by Balducci (2013) in Milan) or 'thin descriptions' that enable knowledge sharing across different epistemic communities. In this sense, the difference between incremental planning and the trading zone is that the former is strictly focused on reaching an agreement while the latter appreciates the exchange between two parties that have incommensurable ideas about society.…”

The aim of this article is to critically situate co-production methods such as that of the urban living lab within contemporary planning theory and in particular to the ideas of 'agonistic planning' and the 'trading zone'. By critically review relevant literature and discussing the results of an ongoing interdisciplinary project, we will show a number of potentials and issues when translating the urban living lab idea to planning contexts. Potentially our urban living labs have opened up opportunities for local planners to discuss controversial issues by using the idea of nature based solution as a boundary-object/trading-zone. On the other hand, planners' positivistic and incremental understanding of city making hinders a transformative understanding of the urban living lab and nature based solution in favour of more fashionable technological fixes.

“…In a case study of strategic spatial planning in the city of Kuopio, Finland, Mäntysalo and Kanninen (2013) have analysed the conception and implementation of the so-called Kuopio Model, a spatial imaginary (and a related ‘transport city’ key metaphor) portraying the city as a system of overlapping fabrics of the ‘walking city’, ‘transit city’ and ‘car city’ (Figure 2). The study highlights the role of the artefactual level of this spatial imaginary, brought by the coordinative capacity of boundary objects that have operationalized the Kuopio Model, especially between the land use and transport planning sectors.…”

This article examines the coordinative capacity of strategic spatial planning conducted as persuasive storytelling. It suggests that spatial imaginaries and metaphors developed in storytelling gain coordinative capacity when they perform as boundary objects. Boundary objects are conceptually flexible to lend themselves to the stakeholders’ varying interpretations, and artefactually robust to provide joint targets and tools for coordinated strategic action. This is demonstrated with the example of Aalborg, Denmark, where the spatial imaginary of the ‘growth axis’ and the associated boundary object of the light rail transit/bus rapid transit spine have played important communicative and coordinative roles in the city’s spatial strategy of transitioning from an industrial city to a knowledge and culture city. The aim of the Aalborg example is to illustrate the feasibility and relevance of the theoretical approach, developed in the article, for future case research.

“…Furthermore, in the context of my study, it will be inevitable that we address the issue of a shared language, since, besides practical interactions, trading zones involve local “language games” for the exchange between parties that do not share “deeper” values and conceptual understandings (Mäntysalo and Kanninen 2013, 60). Tackling Galison’s distinction between a pidgin and a creole, I will primarily focus on a pidgin formation in university–student trading zones, including extracurricular interactional practices between TRS and students, such as discussion clubs, science festivals, science slams, and the like.…”

This article aims to distinguish and depict the features of communications and collaborations in contemporary universities through the concept of trading zones. The author also considers the role that the idea of a digital university might play in shaping interactions in transforming local context where different actors can find a common ground of exchange. The new contexts, including the pragmatic orientation of contemporary society and new technologies and environments, contribute to reconsidering the idea of the classical university, in which interactions between professors and students have outstepped customary collaborations in laboratories, as well as the idea of education and research integration. This article focuses on distinguishing new forms of interactions, boundary practices, and environments, which are suggested by today’s universities. Proceeding from them, the author argues that new concepts of the university, such as the digital university, and renovated campuses—to some extent—contribute to the adaptation of a renewed idea of Humboldt’s Bildung.
