Description

The big questions and key purposes of landscape planning during a period of land use pressure and climate change are covered by this book. It takes an inclusive view of landscape, from design to strategy and from physical/professional to cultural/scholarly. It builds on sustainable development perspectives, and places an emphasis on ways of reversing landscape fragmentation and declining sense of place. Whilst international in its scope, this book reflects the European Landscape Convention's perception of planning as 'strong forward-looking action'. The premise supported is that urban and urban fringe landscapes should receive the same prominence as rural ones.
