In cities, ever more often municipal authorities, but also private planning offices and investors organize participative processes. New and direct forms of public participation are playing an increasing role in urban planning. These include workshops on future development and other events, in which citizens may present their requests. Those discussion forums address different expectations of the citizens to obtain a more direct influence on the planning and the shaping of the public space, which is more and more contested by different social groups. The new forms of participation in larger urban projects are representing a focal point for different normative ideas of participation and democracy. Therefore, this research project will use them as a starting point for the analysis of changing concepts of the citizen and the political order.The research project asks how municipal authorities address the citizens to participate and which role is attributed to them by the institutional frame of the process. Besides, the aim of this research is to generate a typology of different cultural patterns on the side of the participating citizens concerning democracy, the forming of the political will and the political order in the context of a changing political decision making process in the city. The results of the project can thus contribute to a deeper sociological and cultural understanding of the structural changes in politics. Comparing cities in the two countries Germany and Switzerland should help to identify the influence of different models of democracy and their respective institutional conditions. Furthermore the comparison allows reconstructing the differences in traditional beliefs about democracy and freedom, considering the aspect of an increasing role of the city, its rapid changes and its search of new ways for solving problems adequately. Patterns of interpretation and moral concepts of the participating citizens are elements of a changing political culture. Therefore, non-standardized interviews will be conducted with citizens involved in selected urban projects where direct forms of participation are used. The way in which the municipal authorities and the institutional settings address the citizens will be analyzed based on appropriate documents of urban administration. We will choose forms of participation in urban projects that are very important for the development of a city and where possible integration or exclusion processes with regard to the future uses of the space are becoming apparent in the planning process.

在城市中，更多的是市政当局，但也有私人规划办公室和投资者组织参与的过程。公众直接参与的新形式在城市规划中发挥着越来越大的作用。这些活动包括关于未来发展的讲习班和其他活动，公民可以在这些活动中提出他们的请求。这些论坛解决了市民对公共空间规划和塑造产生更直接影响的不同期望，这一点越来越受到不同社会群体的争夺。参与较大城市项目的新形式代表了参与和民主的不同规范思想的焦点。因此，本研究项目将以此作为分析公民观念和政治秩序变化的起点。研究项目询问市政当局如何解决公民参与的问题，以及在这一过程的制度框架下，市政当局赋予公民什么角色。此外，本研究的目的是在城市政治决策过程不断变化的背景下，对参与其中的公民关于民主、政治意愿的形成和政治秩序的不同文化模式进行类型学研究。因此，该项目的成果有助于加深对政治结构变化的社会学和文化理解。比较德国和瑞士这两个国家的城市，应该有助于确定不同民主模式的影响及其各自的体制条件。此外，考虑到城市的作用越来越大，它的快速变化，以及它对充分解决问题的新方法的探索，这种比较允许重建关于民主和自由的传统信仰的差异。参与的公民的解释模式和道德观念是不断变化的政治文化的要素。因此，将对参与选定的直接参与形式的城市项目的公民进行非标准化访谈。将根据适当的城市管理文件分析市政当局和机构设置对公民的处理方式。我们将选择对城市发展非常重要的城市项目的参与形式，并在可能的情况下，将空间未来用途的整合或排除过程在规划过程中变得明显。
