This volume presents a careful selection of the key contributions to social planning produced by leading scholars in the field. It addresses the many ethical and distributional matters which enter into planning processes. Many of these concern the involvement of social values and norms into otherwise positive structures. This authoritative collection includes not only papers which look at social planning from an abstract, academic perspective but also more applied work in the field.

The opening section examines the theory and methodology of social planning. The focus is on concepts such as social justice and social equity, with concern as much for their application as for their definition.

The next two parts look firstly at the particular matter of sustainable development in its broadest sense, and secondly at amenities and social organization. Somewhat in contrast to this, the following part embraces papers which consider spatial mismatch and ways of planning to minimize such mismatches - or at least their impact. The last section of the collection presents two alternative planning models.

This volume will be an essential source of reference for academics, researchers and practitioners concerned with social planning.
