| dc.description.abstract | In the1990s, community-planning systems were introduced in Taiwan by the government. As a result, the government gradually established institutions of community planners and “community empowerment”, thus bringing about rigorous citizen participation in community planning. While participatory community planning has developed to some extent, the participatory condition of urban planning is still not mature. In Taiwan, there are common examples of that such as the planning process of Periodical Overall Review of Urban planning and infrastructure planning. Institutions are “frameworks of norms, rules, and practices which structure action in social contexts” (Healey, 2007, p. 64) and international research shows that successful participation and integration of diverse interests in planning depends to a significant extent on sufficient legislation and enforcement mechanisms (Boswell Franklin, 1998; Sinclair and Doelle, 2003). They can be formal or informal (North, 1990). “Formal institutions include laws, rules, and regulations; informal institutions comprise norms, values, and customs that structure action. Both formal and informal institutions influence public participation. Formal institutions, for instance, shape the legal requirements of public participation. Informal institutions underlie the cultural motivations behind participation in a given social context (Ganapati & Ganapati, 2008).” | |
