| 520 ^aThis book gives definition to participatory practice as anecessary form of activism in development planning for cities. It gives guidance on how practice can make space for big and lasting change and for new opportunities to bediscovered. It points to ways of building synergy and negotiating our way in the social and political spaces ^'inbetween^' conventional and often competing ideals-- public and private interests, top down and bottom up, formal and informal, the global agendas which outsiders promote and the local needs of insiders, for example. It offers guidance on process, designed to close gaps and converge worlds which we know have become divisive and discriminatory, working from the detail of everyday life in search of beginnings that count, building out and making meaningful locally, the abstractions of the global causes we champion--poverty alleviation, environmental sustainability, resilience. Practice--the collective process by which decisions are negotiated, plans designed and actions taken in response to needs and aspirations, locally and globally--we will see, is not just about beingpractical, but more. Its purpose is to give structure to our understanding of the order and disorder in our cities today, then to disturb that order when it has become inefficient or inequitable, even change it. It is to add moral value to morally questionable planning practice and so build ^"a social economy for the satisfaction of human need.^" Practice in these spaces ^'in-between^' redraws the boundaries of expectation of disciplinary work and offers a new high ground of moral purpose from which to be more creative, more integrated, more relevant, more resourceful--more strategic^"--^cProvided by publisher |
| 520 ^aThis book offers new guidance for global urban planningand development practice. It defines the advantages of operating in the socially and politically constructed spaces in between competing ideals; top down and bottom up,formal and informal, public and private vested, freedom and order. The book argues that being practical in practice requires that planners continue to make space forinnovative solutions to urgent problems, whilst at the same time triggering opportunities for change in order to deal with their primary causes - inequity, violation of rights, risk and vulnerability. To be a Spacemaker is not just to understand the order or disorder in our cities today, but also to disturb that order. Such practice is mutually enabling and allows practitioners to cultivate the ideals of planning afresh. The Spacemaker^'s Guide to Big Change explores the skills, values, methods and responsibilities required of architects, designers, planners, and others working to regenerate our cities in order to practice effectively and collaboratively^"--^cProvided by publisher |
