Det fysiska rummet i det "utsatta området" Östberga : En diskursanalys av begreppet "utsatta områden" och stadsutvecklingsprojekt och -policyer / The Physical Space in the "Vulnerable Area" Östberga : A Discourse Analysis of the Concept "Vulnerable Areas" and Urban Development Project and Strategies

This study investigates the role of design of physical space and urban planning when it comes to social sustainability in a so called “vulnerable area”; Östberga in Stockholm, Sweden. Planning documents of an urban development project in Östberga, the Stockholm City’s land use plan, the Swedish government's proposition on the design of physical space and Sweden’s police department's report on the Swedish “vulnerable areas” undergoes a discourse analysis. The documents’ discursive problematisations are identified, analyzed and discussed with the help of Bacchi’s discourse theory, Wacquant’s theory of territorial stigma and Lefebvre’s theory of the production of space. The studied documents unify in regarding the design of physical space being an important factor in a place’s social sustainability. The overall goal of these documents is to increase the state control of Östberga for the area to comply with the goals of the public actors.
