The centre participates in a European research co-operation on urban development after 1960 under the leadership of Lars Nilsson from the Institute of Urban History in Stockholm. The co-operation is a network, which meet at international conferences to present studies from their own countries. From the centre, Søren Bitsch Christensen participates. Another contribution to the focus on post-industrial Danish towns is Sebastian Fogh Nordentoft’s thesis about the deindustrialisation of Danish Towns 1960-2001.
