Planning is never far from the top of the policy or media agenda,
whether this concerns 'garden-grabbing', the location of wind farms
or protests about travellers' sites. The operation of the planning
system raises strong views, even passions, and is highly political.
Planners have to engage with developers working on multi-million
pound schemes and the local communities that will be affected by
such schemes. And throughout, they have to work in the public
interest, delivering on broad policy goals and meeting the needs of
vulnerable communities. This book is about the way that the
planning system works, what it can do, what it cannot do and how it
should evolve to meet the challenges of the 21st century. It looks
at a range of issues to unlock the purpose of planning by being
positive about the role of planning while remaining realistic about
its achievements and potential. Written in a clear and accessible
manner, this book will be essential reading for students studying
planning in a variety of disciplines and practitioners engaging
with the planning system.
