Countries which take spatial planning seriously should take
planning law and property rights also seriously. There is an
unavoidable logical relationship between planning, law, and
property rights. However, planning by law and property rights is so
familiar and taken for granted that we do not think about the
theory behind it. As a result, we do not think abstractly about its
strengths and weaknesses, about what can be achieved with it and
what not, how it can be improved, how it could be complemented.
Such reflections are essential to cope with current and future
challenges to spatial planning. This book makes the (often
implicit) theory behind planning by law and property rights
explicit and relates it to those challenges. It starts by setting
out what is understood by planning by law and property rights, and
investigates - theoretically and by game simulation - the
relationships between planning law and property rights. It then
places planning law and property rights within their institutional
setting at three different scales: when a country undergoes
enormous social and political change, when there is fundamental
political debate about the power of the state within a country, and
when a country changes its legislation in response to European
policy. Not only changing institutions, but also global
environmental change, pose huge challenges for spatial planning.
The book discusses how planning by law and property rights can
respond to those challenges: by adaptive planning), by adaptable
property rights, and by public policies at the appropriate
geographical level. Planning by law and property rights can fix a
local regime of property rights which turns out to be inappropriate
but difficult to change. It questions whether such regimes can be
changed and whether planning agencies can make such undesirable
lock-ins less likely by reducing market uncertainty and, if so, by
what means.
