Description
Planning Theory by Philip Allmendinger provides a comprehensive analysis of planning theories and their significance in practice. This revised edition offers a holistic view of the field, exploring how different theories have gained dominance at particular times and places. By examining the historical evolution of planning theory and key philosophical issues, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the subject and develop critical thinking skills. The book draws on established theories while expanding its scope to include current perspectives on neoliberalism, post-colonialism, and post-structuralist thinking on politics, space, and scale. This unique approach makes it an essential resource for students studying planning theory in Urban or Planning studies at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. With a comprehensively revised and updated content, this edition offers a fresh perspective on the subject, reflecting the shift in planning theory towards post-structuralism.
