Urban change is often difficult because we are dealing with
people's elusive notions of place and perception, time and change.
Urban design and planning in a changing urban context so that it
remains relevant for people is elusive because the idea of place is
embedded in memory and identity - but whose memory and whose
identity? This book seeks to understand the urban change dynamic so
that the planning of urban places aligns with the dynamic of
people's perception of place. Planning Urban Places examines the
premise that building cities is a concrete business surrounded by a
shifting context. It discusses the notion of urban design and
placemaking from the perspective of place perception and cognitive
psychology, place philosophy and human geography. It also considers
network theory to help illustrate the self-organising paradigm of
small word network theory for planning urban places.
