Change is an important and essential part of life. In urban geographies, change involves any alteration in the urban environment, whether this alteration is associated with decline and decay or growth and prosperity of urban settings. The world is currently facing epochal changes that affect all aspects of life. Architectural and urban heritage are at the core of the process of change. The pace of urban change in heritage areas, however, differs widely across the world. In some areas, it is very slow due to heritage designation; in other parts it is an astonishingly rapid process with risk of erosion of heritage and urban areas of value. This could be due to rapid economic and demographic growth coupled with reluctance or absence of heritage protection laws. Nevertheless, change in heritage urban areas is not only confined to the physical aspects of change. Since urban spaces and settings are venues for human interactions and experiences, urban change is also widely affected by and affects non-physical aspects including socio-political practices, economic implications, and cultural impacts.
In this regard, this thematic issue looks at the various patterns of the interrelationship between heritage and urban change from both the physical and non-physical sides. Looking at the physical aspects of heritage and change includes but is not limited to investigations related with morphological transformation, post-disasters developments, infill interventions, urban growth and urbanization impacts, among others. Non-physical aspects of change also include, for instance, issues related to change of various races and classes within societies, positive and negative impacts of gentrification of historic urban areas, and the movement of populations, capitals, and goods and their impacts on historic and heritage urban areas.
