• Star, Marieke Elisabeth van der (2022). PhD-workshop during Include conference Durham, UK. Vis sammendrag

  Background and motivation The Include research conference in Durham 14th-15th September is entitled Climate Emergency! Energy Crisis! A symposium on responsibility, inclusion and place-based action. In connection with this, on the second day of the conference, we are organising an exclusive workshop for selected PhD students within Include, as well as for external students working with related themes. The goal is to share and discuss theoretical, methodological and empirical aspects related to the study of socially inclusive and just transitions, so as to inspire each student in their work. Based on the outcome of the workshop and students’ own motivation, we are also proposing that the group considers the production of a perspective article. Three guiding themes/questions for the workshop (1) How to define and measure justice in a time of crisis? How does research on different sectors employ the notion, and what are the challenges when applying justice in empirical work? (2) What wider issues (e.g., structural inequalities) may be lost out of sight as we study justice aspects related to specific policies and interventions? (How to we systematically consider knock-on justice risks and benefits between projects) (3) How do we understand the potential merit of increased ‘inclusion’ in light of questions 1 and 2?

  Researching socio-spatial inclusiveness of urban densification strategies – using spatial capital as a theoretical conceptualisation To combat environmental problems and to regulate urban sprawl, low carbon policies are focusing on compact cities, where residents live in higher densities to counter automobile dependency. One of these policies is the densification around public transport hubs and multifunctional urban centres, to promote sustainable mobility practices (i.e. walking, cycling and public transport ridership). Together with an increasing trend of people moving towards (central parts of) the city, this enhances the attractiveness of urban areas and increases housing prices especially in the centrally located and highly accessible parts of city regions, potentially leading to processes of gentrification. Such spaces have become a scarce ‘good’. An increasingly relevant question is whether these developments are socially inclusive, and what kind of socio-spatial consequences this has for the diversity of socio-economic groups living in urban spaces. In this paper I explore how the concept of spatial capital (Rérat 2018; 2011), which refers to the mastery or command of spatial aspects of life (inspired by Pierre Bourdieu’s theories on capital), may be applied to develop a research design and to study socio-spatial accessibility and inequality in city regions, resulting from compact city and transit-oriented strategies. How may questions about socio-spatial inequalities and justice be addressed through the concept of spatial capital, and how may this conceptualization be operationalized and applied in empirical research.

  Immigration to the Netherlands has strongly increased in the past recent years. Immigration is expected to continue to be the main driver of population growth in the future. Insight into the settlement patterns of the new migrant groups - in particular the labor migrants - is important because these often have an impact on future regional population development and housing needs. The Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency (PBL) has therefore, together with the University of Amsterdam, investigated the settlement patterns of various groups of migrants upon arrival in the Netherlands, in relation to their background characteristics.
