PLANNING IS ANALYZED AS BEING 'MODERN SCIENCE' WHICH ATTEMPTS TO DEVELOP THE PROGNOSTIC & PLAN-ORIENTED CAPACITY OF SCIENCE & AS AN ENDEAVOR TO EFFECT THE DIRECTION OF INDUSTRIAL-TECHNICAL SOCIETIES. 'PLANNING THEORY' IS DEFINED AS THE DESCRIPTION OF A CONSIDERED PLANNING SYSTEM OR MODEL. THE PROBLEM OF PLANNING & DEMOCRACY HAS BEEN DISCUSSED IN 2 SUBORDINATE CONSIDERATIONS: (1) INDIVIDUAL-COLLECTIVISM, & (2) CENTRALIZATION-DECENTRALIZATION. ANOTHER PROBLEM AREA CONCERNING PLANNING THEORY IS METHODOLOGICAL. A 3RD AREA CONCERNS THE NATURE OF CLASSICAL PLANNING THEORY. ALL 3 AREAS ARE CLOSELY INTERRELATED & ARE CONCERNED WITH DEMOCRATIC PLANNING. 3 SCHOOLS OF THEORETICAL PLANNING THOUGHT ARE DIFFERENTIATED: (A) THE RATIONALIST-TECHNOCRATIC, (B) THE NORMATIVE-TECHNOCRATIC, & (C) THE PARTICIPATORY. THE RATIONALIST-TECHNOCRATIC DIRECTION STILL DOMINATES PRACTICAL DISCUSSION ON PLANNING. THE NORMATIVE-TECHNOCRATIC DIRECTION IS A REACTION TO THE RATIONALIST-TECHNOCRATIC DIRECTION. THE RATIONALIST-TECHNOCRATIC MODELS OF PLANNING ARE BASED ON A SIMPLE DECISION-THEORETICAL FRAME OF REFERENCE & FUNCTIONAL RATIONALISM. NORMATIVE TECHNOCRATIC MODELS DEPART FROM THE RATIONALIST-TECHNOCRATIC MODELS, WHILE PARTICIPATORY MODELS RETURN TO THE CLASSICAL PLANNING CONTROVERSY & TO THE PROBLEMS OF DEMOCRACY. THE DEMOCRATIC DEVELOPMENT OF CAPITALISM REQUIRES COUNTERPLANS ALONG WITH USUAL PLANNING. 1 TABLE. B. MILLER.

With the global expansion of urbanization there is a need to ensure that cities develop in a way that allows all residents to benefit from urban life. This volume contains a collection of classic and more recent papers that provide insight into the problems encountered in urbanization and the ways in which planning has evolved to meet the resultant challenges. It is broad in its coverage, and its content includes both theoretical and applied contributions as well as looking at urban planning issues in the developing as well as the developed world

In this article, we analyse the evolution and transformation of Danish spatial planning from its tentative origins in a context of liberal politics, through its rise as a central feature of the welfare state project, to its more recent entrepreneurial forms in a context of neoliberalization. The article demonstrates how the current neoliberalization of Danish spatial planning discourses and practices must be understood in the context of previous discourses and practices sedimented as layers of meaning and materiality through time. In this way, the evolution and transformation of Danish spatial planning provides illustrative insights into the hybridity of 'actually existing neoliberalism(s)' in a context of state welfarism, and we propose 'palimpsest' as a metaphor that can help to underline that hybridised neoliberalizations are structured by discursive as well as material practices that are historical-geographical in character. ; In this article, we analyse the evolution and transformation of Danish spatial planning from its tentative origins in liberalist politics, through its rise as a central feature of the welfare state project, to its more recent entrepreneurial forms in a context of neoliberalisation. The article demonstrates how transformations of Danish spatial planning discourses and practices must be understood in context of previous discourses and practices sedimented as layers of meaning and materiality through time and over space. These layers do not completely overlay one another, but present a palimpsest saturated with contradictions as well as possibilities. We propose the notion of the 'planning palimpsest' as a helpful metaphor for drawing attention to the historical-geographical characteristics of planning discourses and practices.

This article revisits the notion of radical planning from the standpoint of the global South. Emerging struggles for citizenship in the global South, seasoned by the complexities of state—citizen relations within colonial and post-colonial regimes, offer an historicized view indispensable to counter-hegemonic planning practices. The article articulates the notion of insurgent planning as radical planning practices that respond to neoliberal specifics of dominance through inclusion — that is, inclusive governance. It characterizes the guiding principles for insurgent planning practices as counter-hegemonic, transgressive and imaginative. The article contributes to two current conversations within planning scholarship: on the implication of grassroots insurgent citizenship for planning, and on (de)colonization of planning theory.
