Abstract

© 2015 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved. The case for regional planning turns on the logic that a strategic overview is required to deal effectively with urban and environmental issues that have wide implications. This includes, but is not limited to, transport planning, the management of environmental assets and the location of housing developments. In this article, the authors set out the history of regional planning, contrasting the ways in which the term has been employed in diverse national settings before going on to chronicle the suite of activities that have at various times comprised the activity of regional planning. The authors conclude by taking stock of the position occupied by regional planning in some states at the end of the first decade of the new millennium and ask what turn regional planning will take next.
