Cultural Policies and Urban Rehabilitation in Budapest

The author examines the measures of public policies which support a sustainable social development. One of the major problems in the city of Budapest is the public administration. There are four local governments, and that is why it is difficult to create a common urban policy. Different city rehabilitation projects are promoted by each of the local governments. A common problem of the whole city is the gentrification (that is slowly happening since the end of the nineties), decrease of inhabitants in the inner zone of the city, pushing out of the original population and changing neighborhoods. The author explaines that the flagship projects of urban rehabilitation such as TRAFÓ, Inner Ferencváros and Middle- Ferencváros did not include programs of social integration. In conclusion, Keresztély notes that projects related to the cultural, social or physical aspects of urban rehabilitation are independent one from the other. There is still no coordination between cultural, urban and social policies of local municipalities. Consequently, the methods of cultural intervention for socially sustainable development are still not defined.
