Originally published in 1975, this was an entirely new approach to
the study of environmental planning and problems. Planning had
hitherto been generally described as a technical exercise,
involving the solving of biological and economic problems. In
Environmental Planning: A Political and Philosophical Analysis it
is seen as an ideological activity and the development of planning
in Britain and the nature of contemporary environment problems are
analysed in terms of social and political theory. The book
discusses the nature of 'planning', its relationship to 'politics'
and examines the groups and ideas which had been instrumental in
its development. It tries to determine how important the
environment is to people and how decisions affecting planning are
made. In particular it looks at the theories and assumptions behind
environmental policy, suggests alternatives and describes the role
played by 'participation' and pressure groups in influencing
planning in Britain at the time.
