The authors offer a Southern perspective on planning theory, explaining how the concept of conflicting rationalities complements and expands upon a theoretical tradition which still primarily speaks to global ‘Northern’ audiences. De Satgé and Watson posit that a significant change is needed in the makeup of urban planning theory and practice – requiring an understanding of the ‘conflict of rationalities’ between state planning and those struggling to survive in urban informal settlements – for social conditions to improve in the global South. Ethnography, as illustrated in the book’s case study – Langa, a township in Cape Town, South Africa – is used to arrive at this conclusion. The authors are thus able to demonstrate how power and conflict between the ambitions of state planners and shack-dwellers, attempting to survive in a resource-poor context, have permeated and shaped all state–society engagement in this planning process.. . . | | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | | 關(guān)鍵詞 | Development studies; UN Urban Sustainable Development Goal; Urban growth; Contested space; Politics of S | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-69496-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-09890-2 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-69496-2 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2018 |
