Changing Institutional Landscape of Planning by Louis Albrechts & Jeremy Alden & Artur da Rosa Pires
The central theme of this volume is to illustrate the nature of planning in some European countries, the changes which have recently taken place, and the modernization of planning to address contemporary issues. It is a critical analysis of the new ideas in planning practice.Planning today has to deal with a completely different world from the one in which many of the basic ways of thought of the profession were founded. Many traditional planning approaches often seem less relevant when attention is increasingly being focused on sustainable development, deregulation and competitiveness in a global world. Focusing on the changes that are taking place in the realm of planning practice and spatial planning across Europe, this text examines the driving forces for institutional change. It brings together a team of leading planning academics with experience of planning practice and policies, from the UK, Holland, Belgium, Germany, Portugal, Italy and Norway. Throughout the 12 chapters of the book, they examine and compare new approaches to planning across Europe at local, metropolitan, regional, national and international levels. |
