Description of the research topic:

States face the challenges related to the new urban paradigm, which needs a special attention for the application of the integrated approach in urban policy. It means development policy elements must be coordinated at territorial, professional and sustainability aspects and it requires the combination of resources of different sectors. Multi-level governance is the analytical system in which political power, policymaking and execution is distributed between different government levels, and in which the decentralised power can be integrated again. It reveals the shift from government towards urban
governance, manifested in the birth of networks and soft spaces as the new space construction of the state. On this basis, the theme embraces several topics, which are relevant for a comprehensive
research: governing functional urban areas, institutionalising of city-regions and cross-border regions, fostering urban-rural linkages, metropolitan governance, inter-municipal cooperation, spatial planning, place-based development, decentralisation and devolution as well.
