[en] The central part of the study deals with the question of how to approach the temporarily differentiated development dynamics of suburban spaces within a systematic, conceptual analysis framework. The temporal variation and trajectory analysis however remains descriptive in this study, as the method still has not been developed into an autonomous explanatory system. The study concentrates on the integration of the particular phases and cycles into a broader context of the suburban system and - as far as possible - to describe interdependencies of trigger factors as well as of the local and regional framework. This makes the approach different to a static spatial analysis. Those phases contain, in most cases, the Growth, Maturity, Transition and Resiliency. The latter describes the capability of a system to encounter decline or even to reach a development turn. The phases develop into cycles when temporal periodic changes occur, following a certain logic determined by definable factors and strategies.
