Assessment of regional planning in KwaZulu-Natal
A substantial amount of effort and resources have been put into regional and sub-regional planning in KwaZulu-Natal over the last five years. At a time of demarcation changes and the advent of new rounds of planning for the incoming District and Local Councils, it is appropriate to take stock of what has been achieved, and to consider what changes will be required to meet future local government needs. The objectives of this research project were to investigate the recent regional and sub-regional planning that has been undertaken in KwaZulu-Natal; to identify the strengths and weaknesses of these integrated development plans; to assess how useful and effective they have been in guiding development and investment; to identify examples of good practice in methodology and content; and to make recommendations as to how these plans can be modified to meet the requirements of the new Councils.

Evolution in Regional Planning: The Italian Path
Focus of the paper are the models and practices of regional spatial planning activated in Italy in the most recent years, in order to evidence the innovation occurred and the challenges that regional planning institutions are facing. Compared to a theoretical and legislative framework that tends to separate the different types of regional planning (spatial, landscape, development planning), the experimental framework is characterized by pluralistic approaches in which a balance between a normative and a strategic nature of the territorial plan is searched, in order to introduce perspectives of economic and social development. In a continuous process of institutional reflexivity and learning, the regional institutions have now achieved that the notion of 'region' has become more about social interaction than geographical location. For that, interesting experiences of intraregional and interregional cooperation are developing, as called Interregional table of PadanoAlpine-Maritime Macro Area in Northern Italy, a place-based approach generating supra-local shared visions that are of a certain interest.

Regional government and regional planning in the Hanover Region
The Hanover Region was created in 2001 as a new type of urban regional body. The article deals with the conditions and goals of this administrative reform. It examines factors that contributed to the success of the reform. It is emphasised that above all the region's predecessors' more than three decades of experience with regional tasks were crucial. Also important was the fact that the region was initiated by three 'doers' from the local level, starting a bottom-up process. Crucial for the region's profile is solidarity between the municipalities with their different economic and social structures. This is guaranteed by the contribution that all municipalities pay to the region. The article also deals with the regional planning principles in the Hanover Region, which has attempted to prepare and maintain a comprehensive physical structure. It is pointed out that the main advantage of the Hanover Region is that there is political responsibility at the regional level with directly elected politicians.

Data issues for regional planning in Aboriginal communities
The Northern Territory government's recent release of a 'Stronger Regions Policy' (Northern Territory Government 2003) raises major questions of public policy and social scientific interest. At the heart of this policy is the gradual establishment of regional governance structures, broader in conception than the current 65 Northern Territory local government councils, both spatially and functionally. As an exercise in restructuring, the key feature is a series of partnership agreements negotiated between the Territory government and these new regional representative bodies. Currently, one such body exists, a number are close to formation, and supposedly they will ultimately extend across the Territory. The agreements associated with them will serve to identify mutually determined social, economic, and service delivery outcomes together with the means to achieve them. Significantly, in the context of the present paper, these will be codified in a series of negotiated regional development plans, and they will be subject to a regular process of evaluation and monitoring against measurable outcomes. This initiative is significant. It represents a shift towards regional planning, as opposed to sectoral planning, as the functional basis of Northern Territory government administrative processes. Viewed historically, it signals a conscious effort to move away from a silo model of planning and development focused on specific sectors such as Asian trade, growth of the Darwin urban area, pastoral management, the mining sector, and the separate servicing of Aboriginal communities, towards an approach which views Territory development as an integrated whole with the development strengths and weaknesses of one region impacting on all others. It is also an equity and efficiency-based model, with needs assessment, equalisation of resource allocation, and measured outcomes as the key drivers. For reasons of spatial distribution and historical exclusion, the implications of this strategy are potentially greatest for the estimated 72% of Aboriginal residents of the Northern Territory who have residential ties to Aboriginal lands (Taylor 2003). It is they who now occupy most of the land area outside of the urban areas, and it is they who to date have been largely kept outside of formal Territory planning processes. The task that the Territory government has set itself falls within the disciplinary parameters of regional planning. As an area of public policy and academic endeavour, this is a multi-faceted activity and significantly has its roots as a form of applied economics in the UK of the 1930s where preferential taxation rates and subsidy packages were made available for industries willing to establish themselves in newly proclaimed Special Areas in the more depressed areas of the north and west (McCrone 1969: 93-105). Subsequent regional planning has acquired a firm theoretical basis and assumed far more complex and integrated tasks, being a common tool of government policy (Balchin, Sykora and Bull 1999; Glasson 1983; Gore 1984; Stilwell 1992; Stohr and Fraser Taylor 1981). Its content ranges across the breadth of government functions including the management of environmental, social and economic development, to the point, in some cases, of full regional devolution. The essential point is that regional planning has a long history and has acquired, over the years, a defined literature outlining a set of conceptual frameworks and analytical techniques that are worth touching on briefly before proceeding to the main business of reviewing data issues associated with the new regional planning policy in the Northern Territory.

Cross Border Regional Planning: Insights from Cascadia
This analysis focuses on different levels of Cross-Border Regional Planning (CBRP) processes in the Cascadia borderland. The region is home to the business-led initiative 'Cascadia Innovation Corridor' (CIC), designed to foster cross-border economic integration. The CIC strives to build a global innovation ecosystem in Cascadia, including a new high-speed train to connect Seattle and Vancouver. This paper focuses on the scope of the CIC as a CBRP case. The authors evaluate engagement of city governments and coherency between different planning scales to determine whether the CIC has been addressing the major challenges that may prevent tighter economicintegration in Cascadia. The analysis deploys secondary data as well as primary data collected through surveys and interviews. The results shed light on a discrepancy between supra-regional 'soft planning' and the urban planning level. The authors offer an evidence-based proposal to broaden the scope of the CIC from a CBRP standpoint.

CONLESTE Regional Planning in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
In: https://doi.org/10.7916/D8VT1QWS
This report details the work of a Spring 2011 Advanced Urban Planning Studio at Columbia University. Running between January - May 2011, students examined the challenges of regional planning for the inter-municipal Consortium of Leste Fluminense (CONLESTE) in response to Petrobras'Rio de Janeiro Petrochemical Complex (Comperi). Comperij is a megadevelopment project whose physical size and projected economic and social impacts are unprecedented in the region and in Latin America as a whole. The studio course included collaboration with the multiple stakeholders active in the project, including national, state and municipal government actors, Petrobras and other members of the private sector as well as international organizations and academic institutions. The stdio's engagement in te project joined the work of these actors, most of whom have been involved since the announcement of Comperj in 2006. This report offers recommendations to the different stakeholders for improving collaboration in regional planning for the reshaping of space and socio-economic dynamics in the region in manners that leverage Comperj as a catalyst to bring about greater environmental sustainability, social equity, and regional prosperity.

The significance of regional planning ; Pomen regionalnega planiranja
The article is a short summary of lectures at the 1st International Summer School GEOREGNET held at Faculty of Arts, University of Maribor in Maribor 23 September, 2008. The aim of the lecture was to discuss some of the basic dilemmas about the role of regional planning in a contemporary society within the context of market economy. ; Regionalno planiranje niti ne more preseči niti v celoti nadzorovati neprestane spremembe v regionalnem razvoju, vendar pa na njih poskuša vplivati na tak ali drugačen način. Regionalno planiranje lahko opredelimo kot oblika intervencije v razvojnem procesu v katerem prevladuje zasebni sektor. Kakršno koli opravičevanje regionalnega planiranja zahteva neko obliko dokazov o tem, da posegi v razvoj ustvarjajo boljšo regionalno strukturo, kot pa je tista, ki bi bila posledica zgolj tržnih razmerij. Kljub temu pa velja podčrtati, da regionalno planiranje ne more nadomestiti tržišča, marveč deluje skozi tržne pogoje, saj vpliva na vrednost zemljišč in s tem na njihov nakup in prodajo ter ustvarja potencialne razvojne možnosti. V tržnih gospodarstvih ni torej veljavna nobena teorija o regionalnem planiranju, ki bi predpostavlja, da lahko regionalne planerske institucije v celoti nadzirajo regionalni razvoj. Nasprotno, uspešnost vplivanja regionalno planerskih institucij na razvojni proces je odvisna pravzaprav od virov, ki jih te institucije lahko angažirajo, moči zaupanja in še prav posebej od razmerij z lastniki zemljišč, investitorji, lokalnimi skupnostmi in drugimi pomembnimi razvojnimi dejavniki. Regionalno planiranje lahko vpliva na razvojni proces, več ali manj samo na dva načina: (1) z močjo nadzora javnih investicij, posebno na področju infrastrukture (ceste, železnice, letališča, šole, bolnišnice, socialna stanovanjska gradnja) in (2) s spodbujanjem ali preprečevanjem pobud zasebnega sektorja pri razvoju, in sicer na podlagi politike regionalnega razvoja, nadzora nad rabo zemljišč, okoljskih normativov in standardov itd. Regionalno planiranje lahko intervenira v regionalnem razvoju na podlagi treh glavnih instrumentov: planov, nadzora in spodbud. Regionalni plani so neke vrste kontekst za sprejemanje odločitev, ki se nanaša predvsem na namene, načela, cilje, strategije, programe in projekte, ki jih regionalno planiranje oblikuje za potrebe doseganja ciljev na področju regionalnega razvoja. Regionalni plani kažejo na to kje želi država, zaradi doseganja regionalno- razvojnih ciljev spodbujati razvoj (tudi z določanjem območij za poseben razvoj), v katera območja in področja ga želi usmerjati (z opredeljevanjem posebnih razvojnih območij) in na katerih območjih ga želi preprečevati. Nadzor nad razvojem je predvsem tisti planerski instrument in administrativni mehanizem, ki omogoča regionalno planerskim institucijam uresničevati usmeritve na področju regionalnega razvoja, in sicer na podlagi ugotavljanja skladnosti regionalnih planov s politiko in strategijo regionalnega razvoja. Planerske institucije lahko nadzorujejo prostorsko obliko regionalnega razvoja (policentrično, prostorsko koncentrirano, koncentrično), kakor tudi samo prostorsko razporeditev (prostorski vzorec). Čeprav je nadzor nad razvojem v bistvu pasivno dejanje, saj predstavlja odgovor na predloge za razvoj, pa vendar ni negativen, saj se na podlagi medsebojnega sporazumevanja med različnimi razvojnimi dejavniki najpogosteje oblikujejo nove in primernejše rešitve za uresničevanje ciljev regionalnega razvoja. Zavrnitev predloga za razvoj je najpogosteje zadnja opcija, razen v nekaterih varstvenih območjih oziroma območjih, ki so pod posebnim varstvenim režimom. Promocija razvoja je verjetno najaktivnejša oblika s katero lahko regionalno planiranje sodeluje v razvojnem procesu. Institucije poskušajo spodbujati razvoj in investicije znotraj regija ali posameznih območij na podlagi promoviranja in »trženja« teh regij in območij, njihovih naselij in posameznih lokacij. Take dejavnosti regionalnega planiranja najpogosteje nimajo velike podpore v akademskih krogih, saj najpogosteje niso del uradne politike in strategije regionalnega planiranja. Čeprav promocija razvoja, kot oblika planerske intervencije v razvojnem procesu, ni konceptualno v nasprotju z regionalnimi plani in nadzorom nad razvojem. S teh treh vidikov se zastavlja vprašanje, kakšno vlogo naj ima regionalno planiranje v razvoju sodobne družbe v pogojih tržnega gospodarstva in demokratičnega političnega sistema. Temeljna razhajanja med planerskimi strokovnjaki glede sodobnega koncepta in sistema regionalnega planiranja se nanašajo na vprašanja o tem (1) kdo naj planira, (2) s kakšnim namenom (3) pod kakšnimi pogoji in (4) na kakšne načine.

Indonesia's capital city relocation: A perspective of regional planning
The role of a capital city is essential for a nation. Indonesia's plan to relocate its capital from Jakarta to North Penajam Paser has been set in stone. The Indonesian government targets the relocation to be executed in 2024; therefore, the preparations and capital city development must start from 2020. This research aims to study capital relocation from the perspective of regional planning concerning institutional, spatial planning, the economy, social aspects, and the environment. The data source used in this research was the secondary data obtained from literature review and document analysis. The new capital must present a distinct identity, as it will determine the institutional that will lead to success. The main reasons for the capital relocation are growth and economic equality for the eastern part of Indonesia. It means that development will be encouraged to achieve these goals. On the other hand, overly rapid development in the new capital is also undesirable—a challenging paradox for the institutions involved that demands creativity and innovation for a successful capital relocation.
