Dialogues in Urban and Regional Planning Summary

Dialogues in Urban and Regional Planning: Volume 5 by Michael Hibbard

Dialogues in Urban and Regional Planning 5 is a selection of some of the best scholarship in urban and regional planning from around the world. The internationally recognized authors of these award-winning papers take up a range of salient issues from the theory and practice of planning.

The topics they address include the effects of globalization on world cities, metropolitan planning in France and Australia, and new research in pedestrian and traffic design. The breadth of the topics covered in this book will appeal to all those with an interest in urban and regional planning, providing a springboard for further debate and research. The papers focus particularly on themes of inclusion, urban transformation, metropolitan planning, and urban design.

The Dialogues in Urban and Regional Planning (DURP) book series is published in association with the Global Planning Education Association Network (GPEAN) and its member national and transnational planning schools associations.

Dialogues in Urban and Regional Planning Reviews

Reviews of Dialogues 2:

"There is a freshness here in exploring the complex congnitive and behaviourial relations in land-use planning and spatial planning arenas of engagement in what are very difficult times."- Greg M. Lloyd in Housing Studies 23(2, 2008)

"...the book is to be commended as a means of emphasising and demonstrating the value of consideration of research and practice in other global contexts, and also in taking and uncompromising approach to addressing the insular nature of much research."- John McCarthy in Urban Research and Practice 1(1,2008)

Reviews of Dialogues 1:

"Dialogues in Urban & Regional Planning meets its objective in impressive fashion....The overwhelming result is a book that is international in scope and one that fills a significant void in the planning literature by providing, in a single source, scholarly work that would be otherwise unattainable on so widespread a basis." -Christopher Cusack in Regional Studies. (2006)

"We can take this collection of articles, therefore, as a milestone in planning scholarship...." - Shlomo Angel. in Journal of the American Planning Association (2007)
