Conforming and performing planning systems in Europe: an unbearable cohabitation
No full textTwo planning system models currently cohabit in Europe: a more traditional and widespread one, aspiring to ‘conform' single projects to a collective strategy; and a different and less institutionalised one, promoting those projects capable of ‘performing' a collective strategy. Historical and cultural reasons may explain the major diffusion and persistence of the former, but current needs of territorial governance lead to consider the latter as preferable. This is especially so in the light of the EU integration process, such cohabitation is no longer bearable and conforming ambitions should be definitively abandone
Sistemi di pianificazione come "tecnologie istituzionali": utilità e implicazioni del concetto
No full textLa corrente crisi globale, originata dalla bolla immobiliare statunitense, e la più generale difficoltà di regolare lo sviluppo urbano a fronte dei pressanti cambiamenti ambientali e sociali rinnovano i problemi di governo del territorio e invitano a riflettere sull'adeguatezza dei sistemi di pianificazione istituiti nel secolo scorso. L'analisi comparata dei sistemi di pianificazione, sviluppatasi in anni recenti specialmente in Europa, è potenzialmente utile a tale scopo. I confronti svolti finora rivelano, tuttavia, più che altro l'assenza di una riflessione sulla natura di un sistema di pianificazione, che inibisce i giudizi di merito e disorienta i propositi di rinnovamento. A fronte del problema richiamato, il presente contributo pone l'attenzione sulla natura di "tecnologia istituzionale" che caratterizza i sistemi di pianificazione e ne considera alcune implicazioni di ordine general
Whatever happened to planning? Italy after EU intervention
No full textAs clearly stated by the Conference's proposal, after a decade of European urban and spatial policies, it seems the time now for a deeper reflection on their influences in spatial and urban planning practices in the EU countries. A brief survey on what concerns Italy allows us to observe that EU planning intervention has affected practically all the levels of territorial government, through many dimensions of what is first and foremost a material innovation, triggered as if by contamination by the arrival on the scene of the new institutional player. Changes are mainly visible in: - the shaping of spatial frameworks for planning policies; - the proliferation of new, different tools for regional and urban planning; - a progressive re-equilibrium between "central" and "peripheral" regions; - new institutional and administrative attitudes to negotiation and partnership; - the cultural way of treating urban problems and conceiving planning; - new emerging competences and "jobs" for planners. A reflection on the deepest meaning of those many changes - and, more generally, on the substantial reasons of the (not institutionalised) EU intervention in planning policies - could contribute to better understanding on what, not only in Italy, can be expected from EU planning and what, consequently, can be improved in European development strategie
EU territorial governance: learning from institutional progress
No full textThe main focus of the 2009 Aesop Congress is on how the lessons from the past can be used to deal with the many challenges and opportunities facing planning and planners in the future. Looking back at the recent history of various attempts to factor territory into the EU policy agenda - a more specific issue addressed by the Congress Track 2 chairs - this paper proposes a systematic review of official texts regarding, in direct or indirect manner, EU territorial governance. Aim of the paper is to assess the positioning of EU territorial governance in an institutional perspective by direct sources, in order to discuss possible implications for planning in Europ
Conforming and performing planning: an unbearable cohabitation
No full textTerritorial governance in Europe is managed by two models of planning: a more traditional and common one, aspiring to ‘conform' single projects to a collective strategy; a novel and less institutionalised one, promoting projects able to ‘perform' the collective strategy. The present contribution argues that current cohabitation of these two models is no longer bearable and that, particularly, conforming ambitions should be abandone
