Although planning always seems to be in a state of change, the editors of this book argue that there are some fundamental movements taking place which warrant the label "crisis" and which demand a major reappraisal of the role of planning. The 23 contributions in this book examine the various initiatives that could form the basis of a new direction for planning practice. After a glance at the last ten years the largest section of the book looks at the present and ahead into the 1990s under the main themes of the control of economic strategies, control of the land and property market, equal opportunities, participation in planning. This book is aimed at planning practitioners and students alike and also all those concerned with the role of planning in the current social and economic climate.
