Readings in

Planning Theory

3rd Edition

Edited by Susan S. Fainstein & Scott CampbellHarvard University, USA; University of Michigan, USA

“This trenchant volume succeeds in a vital way: it

provides a framework for theories of planning that

will enable planning students and practitioners to

explain their chosen fi eld much more cogently.”

Lawrence J. Vale, Massachusetts Institute of

Technology

While maintaining an emphasis on understanding the process and substance of planning within real world constraints, the readings in this third edition refl ect the rapidly changing dynamics of today’s globalized world. Updated with thirteen new readings, it addresses the changing approaches to modernism, urbanism, communicative action, power, inequality, and justice in the city.

Edited by Susan S. Fainstein & Scott CampbellHarvard University, USA; University of Michigan, USA

“This collection brings together one of the most

comprehensive sets of theoretically oriented

instructors and researchers alike.”

Xiangming Chen, Trinity College
