Integrating planning and sustainability theory for local benefit
The premise of this article is that prevailing planning theory has emerged primarily from a Newtonian (modernist) social context and is not well integrated conceptually with current developments in sustainability theory as represented by its various contributory disciplines. Approaches in the biophysical sciences, for example, are increasingly based on nonlinear, complexly interrelated conceptions of revolutionary development, whereas planning approaches are typically more compartmentalised, mechanistic and linear in character. To construct more workable linkages for local community/environmental planning, revolutionary theory is employed in this article to deal with the epistemological and methodological differences indicated. The proposed synthesis combines mutually reinforcing conceptions of epistemology, cultural pluralism, community and progress. Implications for practice of local planning are drawn with reference to the long‐term goal of socioenvironmental sustainability, defined as a balance of economic, environmental and equity considerations.
