The planning research agenda:after the 'Great Recession'

摘要

The recent global economic recession and the subsequent economic aftershock have impacted on urban governments and created the need to recalibrate economic analysis and tools in urban areas. Since economic analysis and economic tools have played a role in shaping both urban planning and policy decisions, it can be argued that effective planning must consider market forces to regulate land market forces and must use incentives to stimulate desirable outcomes. Problems may arise when economic tools are disregarded, when tools are not reconsidered in the face of market force changes, or when the economic impacts of various policy options are not considered.
