The reconstruction of New Orleans after the hurricanes Katrina and Rita pose an extraordinary challenge for the system of urban politics and planning in the USA. Local, state-level and national trends and influences on urban politics interact in a particular way. The activities of foundations, philanthropists and NGOs normally working in a national context advocate the implementation of more sustainable planning, affordable housing and integrated strategic planning. However, attractive areas of the city have become arenas for rent seeking by private developers. New Orleans can be understood as a weak municipality that offers a great opportunity to investigate the interactions between civil society and private companies, often neglected in urban governance research. The project will thus contribute to a better understanding of urban politics in the USA and especially investigate the scope for reform triggered by non-profit organizations. For this purpose, city-wide visions, strategies, programs, plans and planning discourses are analyzed with a special focus on the rationalities of the participating stakeholders, decision-making and the selectivity of the achieved results.

卡特里娜飓风和丽塔飓风之后，新奥尔良的重建对美国的城市政治和计划制度构成了非凡的挑战。当地，州级和国家趋势以及对城市政治的影响以特定方式互动。基金会，慈善家和非政府组织的活动通常在国家背景下工作，倡导实施更可持续的计划，负担得起的住房和综合战略规划。但是，该市有吸引力的地区已成为私人开发商寻求租金的舞台。新奥尔良可以将其理解为一个薄弱的市政当局，它提供了一个很好的机会，可以调查公民社会与私人公司之间的互动，这在城市治理研究中经常被忽略。因此，该项目将有助于更好地理解美国的城市政治，尤其要调查非营利组织触发的改革范围。为此，对全市范围的愿景，策略，计划，计划和计划话语进行了分析，特别关注参与利益相关者的合理性，决策和所取得的成果的选择性。
