SynopsisThrough case studies, this book presents alternative planning frameworks in the United States and Europe. It shows planners and policy makers how states and nation-states are addressing issues such as climate change, economic development, and community revitalization, while also adapting to ongoing changes in the roles of national, state, regional, and local governments., Climate change, economic development, social justice, and community revitalization top the planning agenda in some European nations and U.S. states. The case studies in this volume follow the changes in international planning frameworks and the roles of national, state, regional, and local governments in Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, and Oregon in the United States and in Denmark, France, Ireland, The Netherlands, and the United Kingdom in Europe. The book is based on a symposium by the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy; the School of Geography, Planning and Environmental Policy at University College, Dublin; and the National Center for Smart Growth Research and Education at the University of Maryland.
