    Das Herz Hamburgs? Der Rathausmarkt im Widerstreit von lokaler Politik und medialer Öffentlichkeit in den 1970er und 1980er Jahren.
    (2019)
    Hamburg's town hall square as a central open square in front of the town hall is rhetorically characterized as the "heart of the city", but whether it has actually been a reference point of identity for the citizens since its construction in the late 1840s is an open question. Against this background, the article focuses on the public debate between 1977 and 1982 about its redesign. While it was initially welcomed in the mid-1970s under the impression of changes in urban planning models, the concrete measures and the costs of the rebuilding were soon scandalized by the political opposition and parts of the local media. When the conversion was completed in 1982, the redesigned square met with broad approval among the residents. Although the traffic function, which had been dominant since the inter-war period, was reduced, the square is still considered uncomfortable and attracts larger crowds only for commercial events.

    Using and producing urban political space: Nineteenth-Century Antwerp mayors and city councils and their claim to the town hall square.
    (2019)
    This paper focuses on the political appropriation of the Antwerp town hall square - better known as Great Market - between 1830 and 1914. In historiography town hall squares were usually perceived as symbols of united political communities. It was as if behind the facade of the main municipal building only single-minded urban governments and city administrations operated. However, with the culture wars-tradition within nineteenth century political history in mind, this research assumes that not only between subsequent urban governments, but also within one city council opinions were divided on how to use and transform material urban spaces. With the planting of the Tree of Liberty, the restoration of the sculpture of Virgin Mary in the town hall's facade and the inauguration of the monumental Brabofountain the different nineteenth-century Antwerp city councils attempted, each in their own way, to consolidate their control over the Great Market. The subsequent Catholic and liberal urban governments introduced similar and adapted each other's material symbols. The shifts between Catholic and liberal governing periods provide an excellent framework to investigate how differently and/or similarly the subsequent urban governments integrated this specific urban landscape in their governance activities and political campaigns.
