Description

Dutch planning is widely known and admired for its ambitions and its achievements.

This book provides, for the first time, a comprehensive description and analysis in English of its full range of policies and practices.

It gives an up-to-date account of the principles - written and unwritten - behind the planning, and in addition shows how the practice sometimes ignores those principles in order to achieve better results.

It describes the content of the policies, the measures taken to realise them, and the successes and failures.

The book is not uncritical of Dutch land-use planning, but the author values its strengths and believes that planning in other countries could learn from them.

These strengths arise in the continuing tension between the high ambitions of the Dutch planning, and the ingenuity and pragmatism exercised in order to realise those ambitions.
