samenvatting:

Hugo van der Poel describes the concern about urbanisation in the western Netherlands, with a plan for 'bundled deconcentration' in developing around existing settlements, now superseded by a policy of more development on 'brownfield' sites as in Britain. As in Britain sport has been used as a means of central city regeneration. Recently in a similar way municipal budgets have been cut, reducing direct provision for recreation (hitting poorer people most), and forcing local authorities to seek partnerships with commercial and voluntary organisations.
