Brian McLoughlin and the systems approach to planning
McLoughlin's book Urban and Regional Planning: A Systems Approach was published in 1969. For ten years it was one of the most influential books in planning schools world-wide. The paper traces its origins, responding to his need to identify the nature of planning in the then current debate about planning education and professionalism. He built on developments in theory and practice in Britain and America, and tested the result through the Leicestershire subregional study. The paper goes on to review McLoughlin's own critique of his work in 1985, pointing the way to his last book, Shaping Melbourne's Future?, in which he achieved afresh synthesis about planning and the state.
