International audience ; The disintegration of the Soviet Union has totally changed the territorial and urban dynamics of the Baltic countries including Lithuania. Their territorial changes are characterised by an intense process of urban dispersion, suburbanisation, and urban densification. The construction and the renovation of the Via Baltica constitute one of the major elements of the territorial and economic integration of the Baltic States into the European Union. During the middle of 2000', Via Baltica has been and still is a driver of urbanisation caused by the increasing accessibility and automobilisation of the population. The research was aimed at analysing the dynamics of urbanisation in Lithuania in the influence of the Via Baltica in the regional and local contexts. The research has demonstrated that the impact of the Via Baltica on the urbanisation processes measured by remote sensing is more important at the local level. The conclusion was drawn that this transportation corridor should be seen more as a structuring territorial vector of the general process of urbanisation and metropolisation of Lithuania.

Many Lithuanian historic city centres have deep historical roots reaching the Middle Ages and the formation of the Lithuanian state. In the 20th century many democratic and non-democratic countries faced the need to modernize and revitalize city centres damaged by wars and non-corresponding to the requirements of the modern living and wellbeing. In Lithuania the regeneration of the historic city centres has started under the communist rule. The main attention in literature and in practice was devoted to the improvement of the living conditions and to the issues of harmony between the historic buildings and new insertions. [.]

The monograph presents the complex analysis and evaluation of the changes of the social-spatial genotype of the large Lithuanian cities (Kaunas, Klaipėda and Vilnius) determined by the modernist urbanization of the Soviet era using the interdisciplinary theory of networks and mathematical network models as the main methodological tools. The idea behind the monograph is the following: the modernistic urbanism not only introduced the new spatial configurations in specific location of a city with a specific social scenario of public space usage, but essentially affected how city is functioning as a whole. Soviet transformations of three Lithuanian cities from 1939 till 2016 are used as a good example of above mentioned revolutionary processes.
