ReviewsEuropean Spatial Planning and Research succinctly captures the rich material being developed through the ESPON research programme whilst also highlighting the debates, and some of the tensions, emerging in the field of European spatial planning. In his introduction to the book Andreas Faludi describes the ambition of ESPON as "a rather heroic venture with much solid achievement" (p.22). It is a phrase which can equally apply to this volume of work. The book contains much to recommend it as an introduction to the emerging field of European spatial planning. As such it should be of value to those interested in spatial planning research in Europe; to those students of spatial planning more generally and of European spatial planning in particular, and to those practitioners interested in expanding their consideration of this subject both by topic and by scale. If you are looking for some interesting provocations across a range of themes centred on European spatial planning then this volume is well worth dipping into. --European Planning Studies, Faludi and his colleagues provide a thoughtful and accessible account of some of the key findings of ESPON research. This volume not only unpacks the evidential basis of the European spatial policy, but also contributes to the advancement of evidence-informed society., "Faludi and his colleagues provide a thoughtful and accessible account of some of the key findings of ESPON research.

SynopsisThis third volume in a series of investigations of spatial planning, research, and policy in Europe taps into the treasure trove of research that is ESPON, the European Spatial Planning Observation Network, which has yielded a plethora of studies on the real and anticipated outcomes of European territorial policy. The chapters provide a comprehensive view of how the search for evidence to support the agenda of the European Spatial Development Perspective (ESDP)--now the Territorial Agenda--has proceeded, what the evidence and implications have been, and what other conclusions could have been drawn. The authors demonstrate that a learning exercise like ESPON can contribute to shaping a political agenda, which could serve as a source of inspiration for fellow planners across the Atlantic. Includes more than 20 color maps and other figures
