Implementing regional spatial justice – a fiction?

This submission has open access
Abstract
Justice is one of the world's cardinal virtues. In the field of urban and regional development, it is usually used as a guiding principle for the distribution of state funds and infrastructures or to avoid burdens, e.g. from traffic. Arguments of distributive justice and institutional justice play an important role here (cf. Soja 2010). Additional elements like transactional justice or intergenerational justice (climate justice) are neglected or only step by step discussed. However, they offer starting points for more just cooperation, especially at the municipal and regional level. But how can transactional justice and intergenerational justice be implemented in everyday life at the municipal and regional level? What concrete starting points are there for this? These questions will be answered with a view to a current case study in the German region of Schwerin. As part of the project ReGerecht, funded by the German Ministry of Education and Research, current challenges, conflicts and approaches to solutions regarding an integrative urban-rural development are to be tested. Practical approaches (e.g. in land management) for the realisation of compensation measures will be shown. Ideas for future implementations are also discussed. The results are embedded in international lines of discussion on the implementation of spatial justice goals (e.g. Tonkiss 2020).
