SynopsisThe book brings together, in a single source, a coherent set of quality writings in the field of strategic regional planning. It aims to fulfill a need generated by a renewed emphasis in the UK on strategic regional planning enshrined in new style spatial strategies through recent legislation, including the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Bill (soon to become an Act). This legislation places upon regional bodies demands that they are currently poorly equipped to fulfill through lack of personnel experienced and trained in planning at this scale. In five parts the book looks at the evolution of regional planning, the concepts involved, the spatial implications of regional economic development policies, the methods and techniques needed and finally at how strategic regional planning is currently put into practice in three regions with different priorities. This book will be of interest to students of strategic and regional planning, as well as practitioners and policy makers., Written by a team of renowned experts, this book assembles a collection of writings on strategic regional planning, looking at the crucial concepts involved and practical applications of theory., With contributions from leading academics and practitioners, Strategic Planning for Regional Development in the UK is the most up-to-date treatment of a fast-changing subject. The book discusses: The evolution of regional planning in the UK and the strategic thinking involved The spatial implications of regional economic development policies The methods and techniques needed for the implementation of strategic planning for regional development How strategic planning for regional development is currently put into practice in three UK regions with different priorities. Strategic Planning for Regional Development in the UK is essential reading for students and academics working within strategic and regional planning and provides policy makers and practitioners with a comprehensive and thought provoking introduction to this critically important emerging field.
