This title was first published in 2003:The advent of the Labour
government in 1997 provoked major change in the political landscape
of the UK. Priorities changed and different themes moved to the top
of the agenda such as local democracy, community, transparency,
sustainability and co-ordinated or 'joined-up' thinking. Many of
the new priorities, such as community empowerment, involved a
reappraisal of the purpose and procedures of planning, while others
changed the legislative and institutional frame within which
planning operated. This indispensable volume traces and analyzes
the implications for planning created by this political shift.
Presenting an overview of the general debates on contemporary UK
planning, the book proceeds to identify four major areas as key
themes for planning in the third millennium. These are: the new
institutional context; ensuring social inclusion and participation;
promoting sustainability; and the debate over building at higher
densities on Brownfield sites. Illustrated with in-depth case
studies, the book provides a timely and important examination of
the current state of planning in the UK and suggests best-case
scenarios for the future.
