The creation of the European Spatial Development Perspective, the reform of the Structural Funds, and the implementation of programmes to foster trans-national co-operation between governments, will all impact on UK government, and on planning system in particular.

Planning theory is currently in a confused state as a consequence of a number of changes over the last ten years in planning practice and social and economic theory.

Planning Futures is an attempt to pin down the constantly evolving landscape of planning theory and to chart a path through this fast changing field. Planning Futures is an up-to-date reader on planning...

Planning is not a technical and value free activity. Planning is an overt political system that creates both winners and losers.

The book will prove to be an invaluable guide to the British...

This book aims to understand how both specific planning and broader public sector reforms have been experienced and understood by chartered town planners working at local levels of authority across Great Britain. Each chapter outlines the reaction by professionals to reforms promoted by successive central and devolved governments over the last decade, before considering the broader issues of what this tells us about how modernization is rolled out by frontline public servants. "The Collaborating Planner?" fills a glaring gap in scholarship and makes ideal reading for students and researchers...
