The establishment of green belts around British cities after the Second World War involved certain sacrifices on the part of those who were thereby housed farther away from their jobs in the cities, while the majority of the urban populations of that time were unable to enjoy any benefits because they lacked the cars to make excursions into the protected countryside; the true benefits will probably be experienced by the next generation, who will use cars to travel out to new country parks established in the green belts long after they were designated.
Here, planners may with justification claim that by their intervention they are guarding the interests of posterity, including generations yet unborn. But if fundamental values change from one generation to another – if, for instance, each... (查看原文)
Planning in practice, however well managed, is therefore a long way from the tidy sequences of the theorists. It involves the basic difficulty, even impossibility, of predicting future events; the interaction of decisions made in different policy spheres; conflicts of values which cannot be fully resolved by rational decision or by calculation; the clash of organised pressure groups and the defence of vested interests; and the inevitable confusions that arise from the complex interrelationships between decisions at different levels and at different scales, at different points in time. The cybernetic or systems view of planning is a condition towards which planners aim; it will never become complete reality. (查看原文)

读的时候想掐死翻译（针对中间两章），读完还是觉得不愧是大拿啊。然后好一个春秋笔法（并没有），主要是历史再客观，也免不了态度是吧。好在霍大大三观正啊，理想主义情怀和左倾人文关怀加正视市场运作。文如其人的严谨流畅，可惜只能在书中体会咯。

此书展示了英国和欧美的规划理论演变，讲述了起源于英国和欧洲的规划理论、各国大小尺度的规划实践，并总结了规划范式（主要是规划系统论的），最后警醒我们作为规划师所能行使职能的限度。

经典教科书，值得一读。有详实的案例，也有深入的思考。规划的哲学价值，如何做规划的规划？ 作者比较中立的评价英国的规划，比较推崇欧洲的多中心集中式分散，比较不看好美国的自由主义规划。 规划的三个阶段:蓝图式系统式和协调式。未来的规划范式到底是什么？并不是复杂的科学，而是和哲学议题。 而且，有彩蛋的是每章后面的推荐书。

谎称是入门书，但众多思考和论点是超前的。借助英国规划70年规划理想与彷徨，为读者书写了一部极富延展性的世界规划志。
