9780415727952.Pdf THE ROUTLEDGE HANDBOOK OF PLANNING RESEARCH METHODS The Routledge Handbook of Planning Research Methods is an expansive look at the traditions, meth- ods, and challenges of research design and research projects in contemporary urban planning. Through case studies, an international group of researchers, planning practitioners, and planning academics and educators provide accounts of designing and implementing research projects from different approaches and venues. This text shows how to apply quantitative and qualitative methods to projects, and how to take your research from the classroom to the real world. The book is structured into sections focusing on : • beginning planning research • research design and development • rediscovering qualitative methods • new advances in quantitative methods • turning research into action . With chapters written by some of the leading scholars in urban planning, The Routledge Hand- book of Planning Research Methods is valuable for planning students at all levels, and a graduate-level textbook for research design and thesis courses. Elisabete A. Silva is a Senior Lecturer in Spatial Planning at the Department of Land Econ- omy, University of Cambridge, UK. Her research interests focus on the application of dynamic urban models to urban planning (in particular GIS, CA, and ABM models).

It explains how the book came to be written and makes some comments on the various criticisms it has attracted. The first section introduces key experiences that fed into the book followed by a brief summary of the key ideas that underpin its argu- ments. In reviewing the critiques, the article focuses in particular on the treatment of ‘context’, the emphasis on ‘process’, the use of ‘social theory’, and ‘power’, and the development of ‘institutionalist’ analysis. This is followed by a comment on the normative biases in the work. In conclusion, the author makes a plea for continuing attention to the complexity and diversity of urban governance contexts and the importance for practical action of grasping the particularities of situated governance dynamics.

Postmodernism and poststructuralism dislodged modernist, rational and technical approaches to planning. Consensualist decision-making theories of the 1980s took forms of communicative and collaborative planning, drawing on Habermasian concepts of power and society. These positions, along with refinements and critiques within the field, have been hegemonic in planning theory ever since. They are, in most cases, presented at a high level of abstraction, make little reference to the political and social contexts in which they are based, and hold an unspoken assumption that they are of universal value, i.e.
