Synopsis

Throughout the world, city planners and governments grapple with the challenges of urban planning using remarkably similar land use regimes. Yet the realisation is increasing that real urban problems are not easily solved by the classic devices of a strategic plan and a zoning map. Planning regimes are therefore in constant flux, as planners and governments adjust and experiment to address these problems, often with little awareness as to what they are trying to accomplish. This book draws on examples from around the world to discover the best practice responses to the critical issues of planning and urban social problems. By comparing different urban planning approaches and considering their underlying ideologies and assumptions, a more insightful approach to the role of land use planning is proposed.
