'Strategic Spatial Projects: Catalysts for Change' presents four years of case study research and theoretical discussions on strategic spatial projects in Europe and North America. It takes the position that planning is not well equipped to take on its current challenges if it is considered as only a regulatory and administrative activity.
Cohesion, Coherence, Cooperation: European Spatial Planning Coming of Age? by Andreas Faludi, traces the development of spatial planning at European level and argues that spatial planning can become a vehicle, not only for territorial cohesion, but for EU policy generally.
