Strategic special planning is undergoing a renaissance in Europe.
Stakeholders at all levels-transnational, national and regional -
are faced with the challenge of communicating policy principles for
sustainable and integrated development to a wide audience of
professionals as well as to the public. In communicating the key
messages of special strategies, maps can play an important role; in
fact the role of maps in helping to explain or illustrate the
purpose of policy is a very powerful communication tool.
Stefanie Duhr's book is a unique contribution to the rapidly
growing area of teaching and research on European special planning.
She discusses the relevant theoretical perspectives on
policy-making and process. In doing this, she provides both
conceptual and practical tools to help students and practitioners
better understand maps and visualizations in strategic special
planning.
The book reviews the form, style and use of cartographic
representations in strategic special plans in the Netherlands,
Germany and England as well as at European level, highlighting
significant differences between planning traditions and the impact
of these on transnational planning processes. It concludes by
discussing the practical implications for future strategic special
planning processes in Europe and the best use of cartographic
representations to reach agreement and to focus dialogue.
