Planning for Wicked Problems
Description

Each chapter begins with a planning problem that is complex and has no "correct" answer. Students should answer this hypothetical before reading the subsequent sections of each of the chapters.
The second section of each chapter provides a primer for each topic. This primer is meant to summarize the basic principles of the law and to identify the types of questions relevant to planners when such issues arise.
The third section of each chapter includes a series of edited court opinions. The cases selected have been identified by American Institute of Certified Planners as those fundamental to planning education.
Each chapter concludes with an answer to the proposed wicked planning problem.
Planning for Wicked Problems has been written to demonstrate to future planners how the law may be a useful tool in helping them invent solutions to wicked planning problems. The book features a companion website for additional study and review.
Reviews / Votes
"This book meets a longstanding need of urban planning instructors-a text written by planners for planners on the important topic of land use law. It covers critical topics like eminent domain, regulatory takings, equal protection, and free speech in a clear and accessible way by using succinct scenarios and recommended case briefs. The book also provides much needed primer for our students on the procedural side of law and planning; it will prove very useful for core courses on planning law in planning schools across the country." -Ellen Bassett, School of Architecture, University of Virginia"Professors Jourdan and Strauss, both skilled planners and lawyers, have created a marvelous set of materials designed to de-mystify the law for planning professionals. This is a programmed approach that will work-wickedly interesting and relevant problems and questions, summaries of cases with bite-sized excerpts, understandable primers on legal principles, and real-world responses that build on what has been introduced. Who would have thought that something so wicked could be so good?"-Michael Allan Wolf, Richard E. Nelson Chair in Local Government Law, University of Florida Levin College of Law
