Complexity, complex systems and complexity theories are becoming
increasingly important within a variety disciplines. While these
issues are less well known within the discipline of spatial
planning, there has been a recent growing awareness and interest.
As planners grapple with how to consider the vagaries of the real
world when putting together proposals for future development, they
question how complexity, complex systems and complexity theories
might prove useful with regard to spatial planning and the physical
environment. This book provides a readable overview, presenting and
relating a range of understandings and characteristics of
complexity and complex systems as they are relevant to planning. It
recognizes multiple, relational approaches of dynamic complexity
which enhance understandings of, and facilitate working with,
contingencies of place, time and the various participants'
behaviours. In doing so, it should contribute to a better
understanding of processes with regard to our physical and social
worlds.
