城市扩张的环境和社会影响在自然科学和社会科学的学者中得到了广泛的讨论，而城市衰落的空间后果在讨论土地变迁的影响时几乎被忽视。在过去的十年里，“收缩”和“穿孔”作为新的术语出现，以解释城市地区面临人口变化，特别是生育率下降，老龄化和向外移民的土地利用发展。虽然收缩远不是城市政策制定者的“理想”情景，但本文认为，在密集城市中，建筑结构的穿孔可能会带来许多积极的影响。
Whereas environmental and social impacts of urban sprawl are widely discussed among scholars from both the natural and social sciences, the spatial consequences of urban decline are nearly neglected when discussing the impacts of land transition. Within the last decade, "shrinkage" and "perforation" have arisen as new terms to explain the land use development of urban regions faced with demographic change, particularly decreasing fertility, aging, and out-migration. Although shrinkage is far from being a "desired" scenario for urban policy makers, this paper argues that a perforation of the built-up structure in dense cities might bring up many positive implications.
