Planning in (Post)Colonial Settings: Challenges for Theory and Practice

Planning processes that make space for Indigenous peoples in Australia appear to herald more inclusive and socially just practices, in the critical collaborative tradition, as they respond to Indigenous rights-claims and aspirations. The article describes a case in western Victoria where non-Indigenous planners are forging new relationships with Indigenous land claimant groups. The case extends...

Challenges for Theory and Practice in Planning

Tiffs paper reports on recent progress addressing two issues, one of importvalce to theoretical and experimental research in generative planning and the second of importvalce to the practical application of probabilistic planning methods. The first issue concerns what makes planning problems hard from a computational perspective. We report on research investigating threshold phenomena in determ...

Theory and Practice in Planning

This paper explores opportunities for synergy between theoretical and applied researchers in the area of automated planning. From the diiering perspectives of theorists, experimentalists, and practitioners, we examine the causes of current dissatisfaction with existing theoretical and experimental results. We survey approaches from theoretical computer science that provide alternatives to the s...
