Urban Planning Under Thatcherism : The Challenge of the Market, Paperback / softback Book

Urban Planning Under Thatcherism : The Challenge of the Market Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Urban Planning series

Paperback / softback

Description

Originally published in 1991, Urban Planning Under Thatcherism links theory and practice to assess the changes to the planning system since 1979.

It analyses the major trends by investigating the individual modifications in the legislation and the new initiatives which have introduced procedures to by-pass the normal system.

Such changes are fundamental not only to the built environment but to the quality of urban life and ultimately to the nature of society.

The book argues that this orientation is the result of a policy shift from local democracy to centralisation and from the criteria of the public interest to those of the market.
