This volume explores the often-overlooked role of spatial and urban planning in fostering unity on the local, national, and international scales.
The issue of spatial cohesion is a major concern not only for supranational entities such as the EU, but also for nation-states and regions. Spatial and urban planners have long relied on symbolic, economic, and social policies to foster cohesion in cities and regions. However, amid contemporary tensions at both the international and domestic levels, efforts to create or maintain spatial cohesion demand innovative approaches. This book asks to what extent spatial and urban planning―which the authors claim encompasses a broader set of institutions and attitudes than merely sectoral policies―have contributed to societal cohesion over the past thirty years. It considers how these changes have unfolded at European, intergovernmental, national, and regional levels, and during periods of profound transformation across all spatial scales.
The contributions demonstrate that spatial cohesion policies play a significant role in fostering societal unity, even beyond national borders, yet they have too often been overlooked or undervalued.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -The issue of cohesion and the policies associated with it are concerns not only for supranational entities such as the EU, but also for nation states and regions alike. Traditional instruments for promoting cohesion include symbolic, economic and social policies. However, given the contemporary tensions at both the international and domestic levels, attempts to create or maintain 'cohesion' are so important that innovative approaches must be pursued. This book asks to what extent spatial and urban planning, in their claim to be more than just sectoral policies, have contributed to the cohesion of societies over the last 30 years: at European, intergovernmental, national and regional levels - in times of challenging transformations on all spatial levels. The book is therefore divided into three parts, which examine the achievements and shortcomings of cohesion policies in their theoretical assumptions, at national and regional level, and in intergovernmental cooperation. The various contributions show that spatial cohesion policies are significant factors for the cohesion of societies even beyond their borders, but that these have too often not received the recognition they deserve. 424 pp. Englisch.
