Red Globe Press Planning, Governance and Spatial Strategy in Britain: An Institutionalist Analysis: 33 (Planning, Environment, Cities)

Product Description Concern for more open, participative, devolved and integrated government has led many, including the UK Labour government, to re-examine the importance of place, space and territory. Applying an institutionalist approach, and deploying substantial original empirical evidence, this book makes a major contribution to understanding the emergence of more localised governance in England in the 1990s, with particular reference to the role of spatial planning systems.
