Bringing together authors from academia and practice, Conceptions of Space and Place in Strategic Spatial Planning examines spatial planning at different scales in a number of case studies throughout the British Isles. Through this exploration of the spatial strategies the authors look at which conceptions of space and place have been articulated, presented and visualised. The case studies - ranging from a large conurbation (London) to regional (Yorkshire and Humber) and national levels - are each examined by two authors, one academic and one practitioner, to give a rounded and grounded view...

Bringing together authors from academia and practice, this book examines spatial planning at different places throughout the British Isles. Six illustrative case studies of practice examine which conceptions of space and place have been articulated, presented and visualized through the production of spatial strategies. Ranging from a large conurbation (London) to regional (Yorkshire and Humber) and national levels, the case studies give a rounded and grounded view of the physical results and the theory behind them.
While there is widespread support for re-orienting planning towards...

Climate change is changing the context of spatial planning and shaping its priorities. It has strengthened its environmental dimension and has become a new rationale for coordinating actions and integrating different policy priorities.
This book sets out the economic, social and environmental challenges that climate change raises for urban and regional planners and explores current and potential responses. These are set within the context of recent research and scholarly works on the role of spatial planning in combating climate change. Addressing both mitigation measures for...
