Fainstein and Lisa J. Servon (eds), Piscataway, NJ, Rutgers University Press, 2005, 320 pp., $27.95 (p/b) The emergent turn in the localisation of spatial planning in an attempt to differentiate place in a globalised world provides considerable scope for the development of a planning practice that can fully respond to the needs of difference. Moves away from uniform approaches towards those that rely on local economic and environmental context, evidence and programmed approaches to managing change at last provide the means to plan more thoroughly for gender and cultural difference. However, in order to make such progress, outcomes need to be defined in new ways that reflect real and future lives, and new operational polices and tools to realise these changes need to be developed and utilised if these differences are to evoke an effective response to those whom they serve. How far do Dory Reeves' Planning for Diversity and Susan Fainstein and Lisa Servon's Gender and Planning help to achieve these tasks? The books represent two different traditions in planning texts. Fainstein and Servon's book is more focused on advocacy than policy. It remains concerned with the power and history relations within feminism, seeking a voice and a stake in decision making through campaigns, case studies and example, with little expectation that implementation will occur on a national scale. Reeves, on the other hand, represents more of a British approach - responding to difference in practice through the use of universal legislation and programmes, moving out from gender issues into the wider diversity agenda. As Gender and Planning is a reader, it provides a variety of content ranging from Sandercock and Forsyth's 'A Gender Agenda: New Directions for Planning Theory' to other chapters more specifically located by place and topics including transport, regeneration and housing. In the introduction, a case is made for looking at planning through the lens of gender, while in each chapter the fundamental case for a women's perspective is made; this frequently involves going over the same kind of ground which perhaps would be better covered in a fuller introduction. Markussen, in her chapter 'Spatial Structure, Household Work, Urban Policy', attempts to define what a feminist National Urban Policy would look like. She starts from the role of women in the household and the limits put on them in their caring roles. From this she suggests that more localised policies for transport, places to work and decentralisation of services would all support a different kind of life for women which could be achieved through planning policy. In a way this does not question how gender difference can be seen as reinforcing existing economic and power relations between men and women. The book's content deals more with women's self-expression rather than generating a set of specific public policy tools in which the impacts on women's lives are considered in a mainstreamed process. Reeves considers moves of more breadth than the gender agenda (although this is dealt with in her book), looking at the position of diversity and difference in the UK using a sustainable city model as a structuring approach. In this, the social justice aspects of economic, social and environmental wellbeing that lie at the heart of the sustainable model are considered in operational situations, although Reeve concludes that the approach taken in any specific situation will be attuned to the specific rather than the common circumstances. Following her consideration of the theoretical and philosophical bases for diversity planning, Reeves moves on to provide a good review of the legal basis of diversity including development in the US and Europe to its current position. …" @default.
