Synopsis
Time, Politics and Place critically explores time as a political and strategic resource shaping urban governance, planning processes and planning system reform across the UK and Europe. Bringing together leading researchers, it demonstrates how time has been undervalued in spatial planning and advocates for greater attention to temporalities.
The lens of time highlights how different temporal modalities shape what, how and for whom we plan. Dominant approaches stress speed and growth but these can undermine public trust, system integrity and long-term sustainability. Given the challenges faced in the 21st century, the book asserts the need to refigure the active role of time in shaping futures.
