It did not take long, however, when the meaning of the word 'sustainable' became diluted, sometimes even in the direction of an empty 'sustainababble´. Thus, what we see today is a huge variety of more or less scholarly based 'sustainability' imaginaries stating what the major problems facing humanity are represented to be and how they should be acted upon by science, economy, politics, and in everyday life. In other words, 'sustainability' is not enough. To evade the impression that the word may simply encourage the sustaining of an unjust status quo and that everyone has common interests in 'sustainable urban development' research and policy practice have to unmask the real conflicts of interest hidden behind the use of slippery language.Urban Renewal, Governance and Sustainable DevelopmentEnvironmental economicsbicsscResearch & information: generalbicssc'the right to the city'citizencitizenshipclimateclimate change adaptationclimate just cityconsumptioncrisisdegrowthdeliberative democracyDoughnut Economicsecological reflexivityequityexclusivenessflexibilityfuture proof citiesgeographygovernancehousinginclusivenessindividual activationinnovationjust cityknowledge productionlegitimacylitigationlocal political engagementn/aNordicparticipationpolicy analysispowerproblem representationpublic-private partnershipreflexive governanceregister dataregulationresidentriskseparation of powerssocial enterprisesocial innovationsocial sustainabilitysustainabilitysustainable citySwedentransparencyurban developmenturban planningurban resiliencevoluntary simplicityEnvironmental economicsResearch & information: generalElander Ingemaredt270785Elander IngemarothBOOK9910576871503321Urban Renewal, Governance and Sustainable Development: More of the Same or New Paths3024197UNINA
