Experimenting in Urban Self-organization
The intent of this article is to explore the scope and working of 'framework-rules' in relation to self-organization in urban development, both theoretically and empirically.
The article explores the strategies promoted in Oosterwold (Almere, The Netherlands), and the framework-rules that discipline its emergent development, without wanting to suggest that Oosterwold is a 'best practice'. It is an extreme case that helps to broaden our thinking about governing urban development.
Almere Oosterwold is an experimental large-scale transformation in the Netherlands, which will be developed mostly on a greenfield surface of 43 km², generating a low-densityurban area (with the space for between 15,000 and 18,000 new dwellings).
