Sandercock: 'Expanding the language of planning'
In her book Towards Cosmopolis, to which this paper is an appendix, Leonie Sandercock outlines with insight, passion and sensitivity an emancipatory politics of difference and the ways in which a progressive planning, transformed from its modernist roots, can contribute to such a politics. It is in this context that she has developed the idea of what a planning curriculum should look like. But somehow, in discussing planning education, the forceful and imaginative thrust of her book seems to get lost in a rather narrowly-based conception of what 'planning education', itself a multiplicity of practices, looks like these days and in homogenized images of the 'planner' which can easily be criticized.
