Abstract
Der Beitrag untersucht die Wirkungen der territorialen Kohäsionsprozesse auf das Planungssystem in Lettland. Das Land ist stark in seiner historischen Entwicklung verwurzelt und traditionsgemäß sind lettische Politikentscheidungen immer stark auf das Ziel eines sozialen Zusammenhalts fokussiert. Während die nationalen und regionalen Planungsbehörden Lettlands auf offene politische Prozesse, Partizipation und Kooperation setzen, die sich in der postsozialistischen Zeit herausgebildet haben, als Planungssystem und Regionalpolitik transformiert wurden, kann dieser offene und konsultative Ansatz bei der Umsetzung europäischer Politik nicht in selben Maße festgestellt werden.
The article examines how territorial cohesion policies have taken shape in Latvia in response to European debates on the subject. It argues that the conceptualization of territorial cohesion in Latvia is closely linked to the country's historical development path and primarily reflects national concerns with social cohesion. While Latvian national and regional level institutions rely on open processes of policy-making and stakeholder involvement, which were developed during the period of post-soviet transition when the country's planning system and regional policy approach were reformulated, the same open and consultative approach is not always evident during the drafting or consideration of European policy proposals in Latvia.
