Governance Dynamics (SP)

Uitgebreide vaknaam	Governance Dynamics (SP)
Leerdoelen	After successfully completing the course, students should be able to: - identify choices, decisions and developments in planning and policy, - select the appropriate methods in support of the choices made, - consider the consequences arising from these, - evaluate them from the perspective of various planning and policy systems, especially those of the Netherlands, in order to - develop critical arguments on the matter.
Omschrijving	This course unit builds on the basic general knowledge of spatial planning and geography gained in the first-year courses of the BSc in Spatial Planning and Design. It examines the fundamentals of planning and policy systems, with a particular emphasis on policy for the daily environment. Planning and policy are not viewed as straightforward procedures involving interventions in the daily environment. Instead, the course looks at the totality of social, administrative, political and spatial planning processes that determine how planning and policy are constantly subject to change over time and are dependent on the issue, project or process to which they are deemed to apply. This entails comparing the Dutch situation with planning and policy systems elsewhere in the world, studying the Dutch situation itself, especially in relation to decentralization, deregulation and subsidiarity, and deconstructing it in order to focus on certain aspects, including the role of local authorities and regional development, cities and neighbourhood development, and the position of several prestigious projects within the totality of policy and planning.
