Understanding Social Capital in Recently Restructured Urban Neighbourhoods: Two Case Studies in Rotterdam

Abstract: In the major Dutch cities, social rented housing in post-war neighbourhoods has been demolished and largely replaced by more expensive owner-occupied and rental housing. Through residential mobility, these measures can trigger substantial population changes. This paper studies residents' social capital in two recently restructured neighbourhoods in the city of Rotterdam. It distinguishes between the stayers, movers and newcomers. In a neighbourhood context, social capital refers to the benefit of cursory inter… Show more

In die wijken is het perspectief op verbetering door de actuele situatie meestal vertroebeld; men blijft steken in pragmatische aanpakken hier of een best practice daar zonder na te denken over een richtinggevend perspectief (Van den Brink et al 2007: 337).…”
