Unlearning the Colonial Cultures of Planning (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Planning is here shown to be integral to colonial projects, used to appropriate territory for management by the state and then to produce an ordered, coherent system of land regulation and control. This is both a demonstration of how planning was central to the colonial invasion of settler states, and an analysis of how it endures as a colonial practice in complex post-colonial settings.
