Beskrivning
Winner of the Royal Town Planning Institute Patsy Healey Award for Academic Excellence 2025.Spatial planning is at a crossroads, with government reform undermining the traditional vision of state-employed planners making decisions about urban development in a unified public interest. Nearly half of UK planners are now employed in the private sector, with complex inter-relations between the sectors including supplying outsourced services to local authorities struggling with centrally-imposed budget cuts. Drawing on new empirical data from a major research project, ‘Working in the Public Interest’, this book reveals what it’s like to be a UK planner in the early 21st century, and how the profession can fulfil its potential for the benefit of society and the environment.

Recensioner i media

“The authors provide a considered and empirically grounded account of the state of planning in a period where multiple pressures have been ramped-up. Clearly the value of good planning has been underestimated for some time. This very well-written account should be of great interest to policy makers as well as academic researchers.” Gavin Parker, University of Reading
