Advancing Sustainability at the Sub-National Level: The Potential and Limitations of Planning de Eran Feitelson

Advancing Sustainability at the Sub-National Level: The Potential and Limitations of Planning: Urban Planning and Environment

Editat de Eran Feitelson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 mai 2017
Sustainability notions have been widely embraced by planners. However, the question of what can planners contribute to the advancement of such notions has not received much attention until now. This volume examines the potential contribution of planning to the advancement of sustainability at sub-national level, and the limitations it faces in doing so. Bringing together case studies from the US, UK, Poland, Israel, South Africa, The Netherlands and Italy, it covers a wide range of issues and contexts, ranging from the metropolitan to the community level. On the basis of these case studies, the book shows that planners do indeed have a variety of options to advance sustainability notions at these levels, and appear to be doing so. The book proposes that planners should operate at two levels: firstly to change institutional structures, and secondly to advance sustainability notions incrementally in the meantime, within the existing institutional constraints.

’...a collection of interesting contributions...the broad range of topics discussed with numerous references to actual problems in various regions of the world enhances the value of this publication.

Descriere

Notions of sustainability were originally advanced at supra-national level and, then, at local level. However, less attention has been given to the interim 'sub-national' levels until very recently. As planners normally focus on these sub-national levels, this book argues that they now have the opportunity to play a far more significant role in developing and implementing sustainability policies. Bringing together a wide range of international case studies from metropolitan and community levels, it examines the potential contribution of planning to the advancement of sustainability at sub-national levels and the limitations it faces in doing so.
