Section Title:
Regional Planning and Policy
Section Info:
Regional planning is an important contemporary paradigm of planning thought and practice. It provides the theories and methodologies to identify the appropriate scale and context for evaluating decisions and to take action. In this class, we will examine the histories, practices, promise and limitations of regional planning. We will consider a number of important spatial practices that address cross-cutting issues of affordable housing, travel demand, regional competitiveness, livability, and segregation. We will ask questions such as, how do institutions and scales of intervention vary for resource management, infrastructure planning, fiscal policy or land use planning? When are regional approaches more common and why? Who are its common supporters and opponents? How do different levels of governaments coordinate their action?. How should the approaches vary from growing regions to declining ones? And, how effective have past approaches been and what have been their unintended consequences?
