Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The literature on planning is expanding all the time, but few new ideas on planning in the generic sense, as distinguished from monographic information on particular planning experiences and from disciplinary content related to particular domains of planning, can be found in it. The same is true, though to a somewhat lesser extent, in more related methodology-oriented domains of decision studies, such as policy analysis and systems analysis. The explanation for this state of planning theory is that an appropriate frame and base is missing and that without quite different perspectives on planning, significant advancement of its professional practice is not possible. -from Author
