Description and Table of Contents

Description

This book challenges the view that planning under the Thatcher governments has simply been abandoned to market forces, aiming to show that the interrelation of state and market is central to all current styles of planning. A wide variety of contemporary case studies are presented ranging across the country from Glasgow, through Cambridge and Colchester to London with a comparative analysis of their key features. The subject matter is aimed at students of planning, urban geography and urban studies and practicing architects, planners and social scientists.
