BSP Public Lecture: Rethinking property-led planning through spatial governance landscapes

Описание: Date: 27th October 2022
Speaker: Tuna Taşan-Kok, Professor of Urban Governance and Planning at University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands

The Bartlett School of Planning (BSP) holds public lectures regularly throughout the academic year, drawing speakers from across the world to showcase recent ideas and research.

Today’s metropolises are shaped by property investment, global financial flows, and public policy regulations. These complex spatial governance landscapes are formed by interactions between dynamic networks of actors and regulations within a property-led planning system. However, the link between these scattered and rather uncoordinated investments that shape the built environment, and fragmented regulations that contain contradictions, discrepancies, and diverse perceptions on property investors stays vague. Due to this ever-increasing complexity, tomorrow’s regulators and scholars must be equipped with new skills, perspectives, and data to unravel and navigate these property-led landscapes and better organize interactions within these dynamic spatial governance landscapes. In this annual lecture, Tuna Taşan-Kok builds on fresh observations and data, expanding on how future scholars and regulators could work to better read and navigate these dynamic landscapes by tracing property investors and regulator interactions within spaces and across time.
