Private Development: Communal Traditions, their Lasting Effect and Disappearance
The paper studies the characteristic features of the formation of residential areas in certain town estates, which constituted a part of hereditary family ownership. The author also briefly analyses the later practices of urban planning, be it private or government financed projects. It is pointed out that each house was perceived as something fundamentally self-sufficient and intrinsically free, reflecting the idea that every building fully embodies a certain family world. This may explain the diversity and the picturesque improvisations, as well as the spatial structure of many old historical towns and villages.
