'Trading zone' is a concept introduced by Peter Galison in his
social scientific research on how scientists representing different
sub-cultures and paradigms have been able to coordinate their
interaction locally. In this book, Italian and Finnish planning
researchers extend the use of the concept to different contexts of
urban planning and management, where there is a need for new ideas
and tools in managing the interaction of different stakeholders.
The trading zone concept is approached as a tool in organizing
local platforms and support systems for planning participation,
knowledge production, decision making and local conflict
management. In relation to the former theses of communicative
planning theory that stress the ideals of consensus, mutual
understanding and universal reason, the 'trading zone approach',
outlined in this book, offers a different perspective. It focuses
on the potentiality to coordinate locally the interaction of
different stakeholders without requiring the deeper sharing of
understandings, values and motives between them. Galison's
commentary comes in the form of the book's final chapter.
