Planning Against the Political : Democratic Deficits in European Territorial Governance, Paperback / softback Book

Planning Against the Political : Democratic Deficits in European Territorial Governance Paperback / softback

Edited by Jonathan (KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden) Metzger, Philip (Cambridge University) Allmendinger, Stijn (University of Antwerp, Belgium) Oosterlynck

Paperback / softback

Description

This book brings together a number of highly innovative and thought provoking contributions from European researchers in territorial governance-related fields such as human geography, planning studies, sociology, and management studies.

The contributions share the ambition of highlighting troubling contemporary tendencies where spatial planning and territorial governance can be seen to circumscribe or subvert ‘due democratic practice’ and the democratic ethos.

The book also functions as an introduction to some of the central strands of contemporary political philosophy, discussing their relevance for the wider field of planning studies and the development of new planning practices.
