摘要

This article deals with the philosophical and ethical background of Jane Jacobs's ideas on cities as organized complexity and her criticism of urban planning and urban renewal in the form of demolition and area remediation. Many publications have already examined her influence on development projects in as far as this is verifiable. Her contribution to the paradigm shift in urban planning has been reflected in many ways. However, her - not explicitly elaborated - ideological value system that runs through her publications and determined her actual conduct, still remains a desideratum of research.
