“…It recognises implicitly key elements of procedural and ecological justice, that is, the need for attention to process and the need to acknowledge diversity and variability. However, without the development of Local Environment 63 appropriate forms of community engagement by and within institutions, such recognition may still turn out to be short-term and superficial in nature (Gillen 2004).…”

Periods of institutional change are crucial to developing a capacity for just and participatory natural resource management. Whilst the need for such change is often widely recognised, shifting to a new regime is typically uncertain, tentative and uneven. Transitions between regimes are crucial periods when institutional foundations for justice or injustice can be laid for decades. Transitions need to address both formal institutional structures and the informal values, networks and resources that underpin these structures. New South Wales, Australia, has recently undergone a period of major reform in natural resource management, involving substantial institutional and legislative changes. This period of reform illustrates transitional issues of rescaling and changes to decision-making structures. Increased attention to these issues during institutional reform and to the process of transition itself is essential to developing sustainable forms of environmental governance.

“…The geography and planning literature contains some significant discussions about the meaning of place and the forms of management necessary to deliver sustainable places (Gillen, 2004;Healey, 2004). Over time, the idea of "place" has been studied from several perspectives (Dreier, Mollenkopf, & Swanstrom, 2004;Florida, 2002b;Graham & Healey, 1999;Madanipour, Healey, & Hull, 2001).…”

In the last 30 years, numerous studies have sought to define cultural planning. A common theme that emerges is the emphasis on the need to create a planning process for "placemaking" purposes. However, the definition of what a place is remains vague. Using administrative boundaries, this study draws a framework that formulates an operational definition of place that helps to connect spaces to empirical data about their cultural resources and residents. The focus on administrative boundaries is particularly relevant to understand American cities whose territories have a tangled morphology. Using Geographical Information System, this framework is then applied to assess the current situation in Madison, Wisconsin. The results suggest that the use of this framework could help policy makers to assess the texture of their territory in its administrative, cultural and social dimensions.

Promoting place: elevating place‐based discourse and new approaches in local governance in New South Wales

Abstract: In recent years, disenchantment of extant planning systems has assisted the consideration of alternative, place-based models. By offering a critical analysis of these approaches, this article attempts to explore the value and challenge of such for the planning system of NSW.
