(editor: Melinda Benko)
DOCONF2019, this two-day international conference entitled “Facing Post-Socialist Urban Heritage”, is the third in a series of doctoral conferences to be organized on a bi-annual basis, which will provide a comparative overview of current doctoral urban topics and research methods in architecture and planning. The proceedings publish the full papers of the presented and discussed doctoral research during DOCONF2019 in Budapest.
The conference is a partnership between urb/bme and the International Specialist Committee on Urbanism and Landscape (ISC U + L) of DOCOMOMO, the leading international network for the documentation and conservation of the modernist heritage. Thanks for the Future Fund of the Faculty of Architecture BME, the support of French Institut in Budapest, and the Erasmus+ program, this year the Chairs, besides the teachers of the hosting Hungarian department, arrived from the Czech Republic, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, and Russia.

Facing Post-Socialist Urban Heritage
4-5 October 2019, Budapest, Hungary
The third international doctoral / postdoctoral conference organised by the Department of Urban Planning and Design, Faculty of Architecture, Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME).

Throughout Europe, current urban challenges are posed by large-scale ensembles of modernity as a result of post-WWII development on both sides of the Iron Curtain. The urb/doconf 2019 is the third in a series of a doctoral / postdoctoral conference, to be organised on a biannual basis, which will provide a comparative overview of current doctoral research into the physical – built and natural – environment within post-socialist cities in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), and post-soviet Asia.
Those invited include doctoral researchers – doctoral students, candidates or post-doctoral researchers (maximum five years after obtaining the doctorate degree) – specializing in architecture, urban design, urban planning or landscape architecture. The BME Department of Urban Planning and Design wishes to promote cooperation among doctoral institutions, building up a network for future generations of scholars through their specific fields of research related to post-socialist urban heritage.
Main Conference Topics
The doctoral conference series is dedicated to post-WWII (after 1945) urban heritage of post-socialist cities focusing on the main research topics of the department. In order to compare different perspectives, we welcome papers examining the physical environment under the following sessions:
- mass housing neighbourhood
- urban space for reuse
- waterside urban fabric and landscape transformation
Considering the three main conference topics/sessions, we are interested in different research methodologies: theoretical frameworks, comparative studies, morphological case studies, historic approach, research by design methodology, etc.
We seek contributions that (i) test the post-war heritage positions in the changing ideological context after the fall of the Iron Curtain, (ii) investigate the mutual impact of the spatial turn and the critique of functionalism on urbanity, or (iii) examine the role of post-socialist legacy in the formation of new identities.
In addition to theoretical questions, we wish to find pragmatic approaches when responding to the new challenges of sustainability and determining what kind of protection tool-kit is capable of addressing large-scale ensembles problems. Our aim is to discover special similarities and dissimilarities within the physical environment of post-socialist cities, discuss a wide range of options (from preservation to sustainable renewal processes) and create a network of doctoral researchers.
Publications
Full papers (using 4 pages-long template) will be published in the conference proceedings (e-book format with ISBN number). The official language of the conference is English.
The template will be published after the acceptance of abstracts.
Participation at the conference is free of charge (one-and-a-half-day conference at the BME and half-day study trip in Budapest). The travel to Budapest (proposed travel days are the 3rd and 6th October), accommodation, conference lunches and dinners should be paid by participants.
