Description

This module introduces planning systems, particularly in the UK but within their European framework, providing a context for what planning is, why we plan, how planning fits within a wider governmental context and the role of the planner in society, economy and environment.

The module will provide students with an understanding of planning as an interlocking system of policy and political intervention amidst a range of governmental and private interests and high expectations from a range of stakeholders. For BSc students in the Bartlett School of Planning, this will serve as a useful basis for the development later in the degree of the managerial and organisational aspects of the urban environment.
