{"product_id":"9781138830677","title":"Planning For A Material World (Routledge Research In Planning And Urban Design)","description":"Today, urban scholars think of cities and regions as evolving through networks of human associations, technologies, and natural ecologies. This being the case, planners are faced with the?task of navigating a profoundly material world. Planning?with and for humans alone is unacceptable: in the unfolding of urban processes, non-human things cannot be ignored. This inclusive vision has consequences for how planners envision the connections among norms, technologies and life-worlds as well as how they design and implement their plans.? The contributors to this volume utilize a variety of examples - ecologically-sensitive, regional planning?in Naples (Italy); congestion pricing in New York City; and public participation?in Europe, among others - to explore how planners?engage a heterogeneous and restless world. Inspired by assemblage thinking and actor-network theory, each chapter draws on this \"new materialism\" to acknowledge, in quite pragmatic ways, that spatial politics is a process of becoming that is inseparable from the materiality of urban practices.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eLaura Lieto, Robert A.
