A STUDY OF DISMANTLING OF PREFABRICATED HOUSING AS A URBAN PLANNING MEASURE IN HOYERSWERDA: Focusing on Selection Process of Dismantling Buildings Under Stadtumbau Ost Program@@@「東の都市改造」プログラムにもとづく撤去する建物の選定プロセスに注目して

To mitigate the population loss, some former DDR cities of Germany have been dismantling the prefabricated large apartment complex. This paper tries to clarify how the dismantling procedure was executed, especially the selection process of the dismantling buildings, and the idea behind it from an urban planning context in city of Hoyerswerda. The selection of building to dismantle was decided from two perspectives: city-wide scale and neighborhood scale. From city-wide scale, its objective was to save the urban core by dismantling its fringes. From neighborhood-scale, the selection of the dismantling building was more case specific.
