Synopsis

Planners, economists and lawyers shed light on aspects of non-financial compensation planning instruments in this collection of papers from the February 2007 and February 2008 conferences of the International Academic Association on Planning, Law and Property Rights, and from the June 2007 conference held by the European Network for Housing Research. Beginning chapters introduce a framework for comparative analysis of non-financial compensation instruments, and explain concepts of non-financial compensation as used in spatial planning. Case studies offer a comparison of the use of several types of market-oriented planning instruments (especially transferable development rights, or TDRs) in six countries: Japan, Spain, Korea, Italy, the US, and the Netherlands. The concluding chapters look at these instruments from economic, legal, and spatial perspectives. There is no subject index. Janssen-Jansen teaches at the University of Amsterdam's Institute for Metropolitan and International Development Studies. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

New Instruments in Spatial Planning addresses the topic of transferring development opportunities between areas in planning practice by a debate between academics, lawyers and planning practitioners at an international planning symposium in Annapolis, MD, USA and the Van Doorne-Habiforum conference on Transferable Development Rights a year later. The idea of transferring development opportunities between areas is more than only the transfer of development rights. It relates more to compensation: not in money, but in a non-financial perspective. A comparative study on non-financial compensation was started, funded by Habiforum and linked to a number of research projects, such as Van Der Veens and Spaans research funded by the Delft Centre for Sustainable Urban Areas and Janssen-Jansens research funded by the Dutch Scientific Organization NWO-STIP. The chapters in this publication are representative of a close cooperation between planners, economists and lawyers from both science and planning practice. The exchange of knowledge within the framework of this book has arisen from divergent paths.
