Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2002: When a developer wants to realize a housing scheme, what can the local planning authority do to assure that the resulting residential environment is of a high quality? This book explores the question through a cross-national comparison of housing development processes in The Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Germany and France. It analyzes how decisions about the residential environment are made in different situations, and by whom.

From this, conclusions are drawn about how local planning authorities can achieve their objectives concerning the quality of housing areas.

Download or read book Transport and Town Planning written by Jean Laterrasse and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a context where climate change urgently requires us to alter our paradigms, this book explores the possibilities of cities that are both more energy efficient and more respectful of the environment. Based on the observation that urban planning has been detrimentally affected by the compartmentalization of knowledge and practices, this book is conceived as a dialog between transport and urban planning on the one hand, and between engineering and social science on the other. Systemic analysis and a historical approach, integrating the teachings of the last two centuries, constitute at the methodological level the framework in which this dialog unfolds. Based on examples of good practice, Transport and Town Planning identifies an effective set of levers of action and proposes an original method to guide and accompany urban transition with a large share of the initiative reserved for the actors concerned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The background to this collection of paper is formed by the changes in contremporary society. In modern-day western societies it is the thought that individualism trumps collectivisim. There is change from the paradigm of hierarchy to a paradigm of cooperation. This effects administrative law, which is traditionallly top-down, but is slowly accepting and incorporating mechanism of negotiation and bottom up involvement of stakeholders and concerned individuals.
