Abstract

Practices that originate outside the traditional constraints of planning can be sources of planning innovation. This paper researches how temporary use shifted from an element of alternative lifestyles to a strategically embedded procedure of planning in Germany. The paper reconstructs this long-term process of collective reinterpretation by focusing on a semantic layer of innovation discourses, a pragmatic layer of actions and practices as well as the institutional setting as the innovation’s grammar. Based on results of quantitative and qualitative document analyses and semi-structured interviews, it separates the innovation process into five interlinked phases and shows how novel practices initially gained relevance within a few places with extraordinary conditions. Promoted by a new generation of urbanists and diverse framing discourses, temporary use became mobile and succeeded in having a significant influence on planning in Germany.
