With case studies on internalisation and valuation methods, this book critically examines the liberal discourse that urges the transfer of responsibility for open space from government to the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEuropean and American expert authors confront political rhetoric with grounded analysis and conclude that the market needs to be combined with governmental efforts. They scrutinise the connection between open space and the planning institutions designed to implement its policy. The book provides practical pieces of insight in how to structure an open space problem, information on what to expect from instruments, and new ideas on alternative approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47607488119020,"sku":"9781138984882","price":70.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781138984882-regional-planning-for-open-space.jpg?v=1778167839","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/regional-planning-for-open-space-9781138984882","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
