Abstract
Who should be considered, what institutions are involved, how planners should organize their actions (i.e. methodological question), which rationale guides economy and society, those are some of the questions that shape planning approaches and theories around the world. Furthermore, theorists relate planning development to democracy development (BÄCKLUND, MÄNTYSALO, 2010), or to knowledge (DAVOUDI, 2015), or even to ontology, epistemology, ideology and methodology elements (BRAND, GAFFIKIN, 2007). Frequently, the differences in those criteria are considered or classified as different schools or theories of planning. For example, in effort to classify planning theories, Souza (2004) developed a typology based on eight criteria: driving idea, aesthetics affiliation, scope, degree of interdisciplinarity, permeability in the face of reality, the degree of openness to public participation, the attitude in the face of market and political-philosophical framework. These criteria, as Souza (2004) sees, establish a framework to identify “rival” approaches of planning.
