A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Noise, nuisance, nuances
This study empirically analyzes the Ben Gurion International Airport (NATBAG) expansion project, with specific reference to aircraft noise measurements. Drawing on Actor Network Theory (ANT), the study traces a non-human actor—a noise level formula—that participates in the NATBAG planning process. In particular, we conduct an exploration of how a noise level formula engages different actors, concepts and entities, while also playing a pivotal role in social struggles over the airport’s operation. The paper draws on the qualitative methods of in-depth interviews and content analysis. Following the empirical examination, the paper argues for ANT to be employed as a useful toolbox to analyze present-day planning processes. The conclusion suggests that planning scholars should acknowledge the role of non-humans in shaping planning processes, the relational constitution of planning categories and vocabularies, and the processuality of planning.
