Drawing on research from diverse thinkers in urban planning and the
built environment, this Handbook articulates the cutting edge of
contemporary understandings about power and its impact on planning.
It identifies the current state of knowledge about planning and
power, as well as emerging trajectories within this field of
research. This comprehensive Handbook examines power relations in
late capitalism and provides normative suggestions on how power
might be utilised in planning. Chapters analyse the work of
fundamental theoretical thinkers, including Marx, Foucault,
Deleuze, and Lacan, as well as the history and practice of
abolitionist housing justice in the United States, feminist and
queer perspectives on planning and power, and the emerging
autonomous Smart City. It demonstrates the effects of power within
planning and the ways in which individuals, communities, and
organisations are shaped and impacted positively and negatively by
its practices. With case studies from a range of different
geopolitical regions, this stimulating Handbook will be essential
reading for students and scholars of architecture, community
development, geography, urban and regional planning, urban design,
and urban studies. It will also be beneficial for practitioners of
planning and the built environment.
