It presents time as a pervasive form of power that is used to shape democratic practices, and questions 'project speed': where time to think, deliberate and plan has been squeezed. The authors demonstrate the many benefits of slow planning for the key participants, multiple interests and planning system overall.
Reviews / Votes
"This revealing book provides a highly original and comprehensive account of the relationships between planning and time. It is essential reading for urban studies researchers and students and a much-needed addition to the existing literature." Mike Raco, University College London "The book succeeds where many might struggle. Displaying theoretical sensitivity and empirical nuance, they handle the topic with the wisdom of experienced researchers. This book therefore makes a considerable contribution to studying temporalities in planning research. A likely touchstone for future research, the book will be of particular interest to academics and graduate students working on temporalities, as well as those seeking clarity on the role played by time in the indelible politics of planning."
