England’s dreaming? Corridor strategic spatial planning imaginaries, 1965–present
研究了英格兰南部三个失败的城市走廊战略空间规划案例,指出规划者未能理解制度背景并说服公众,强调空间规划需作为想象力学科来教授和认证。
We consider three failed cases of urban corridor strategic spatial planning in Southern England. These cases remind us that there was a future in England’s dreaming given incremental coalescence of settlements. They pose questions of theories of state rescaling given the historic poverty of strategic spatial planning imagination in England. Planners of all descriptions have failed to appreciate the institutional contexts into which ideas have been pitched and to persuade politicians and the public with words and images. In conclusion, we note the need for, and challenges of, spatial planning to be taught and accredited as a discipline and practice of imagination.
