- W832529432 abstract "The Vienna University of Technology, Austria, is celebrating its two hundredth anniversary in 2015. The Evolution of Planning Thought project forms part of these celebrations and is composed of three core elements: (1) a lecture series by leading academic planning pioneers together with, (2) an inter-generational dialogue including the Planning Thought Award (dedicated to early career planning scholars); and, (3) a book to be published in 2015. This report covers the lecture series in Vienna in May 2014 which assembled fifteen highly respected planners, who have influenced and shaped the field of planning over the last five plus decades to speak about and discuss their personal experiences of those times and to reflect on the development of the discipline of planning.Now or neverThe 2000s saw the retirement of the first generation of planning professors, the pioneers of planning, who led its formation into an intellectual field. Unfortunately, some of these planning pioneers have already died (such as Brian McLoughlin, Jeremy Alden, Seymour Mandelbaum, and also, more recently, Peter Hall). The Evolution of Planning Thought project was born out of the need to reach out to a number of senior planning academics and use the opportunity of their meeting in Vienna to develop a collection of oral histories which would unpack the roots as well as the transformation of planning.The oral histories were collected in the context of personal values and experiences as well as in relation to an ever changing world, from those individuals who have had first-hand access to and made contributions towards the knowledge base of planning. By capturing the reflections of various first generation planners, the project provides an essential understanding of what were and what are the most salient elements of the planning discipline, and which should be valued and taken forward by current and future generations of planners. Placing oral histories into the centre of discussions allows the overall resonance of key planning ideas and major planning achievements to be understood better and, by doing so, builds up the basis for clarifying and shaping the legacy to be taken forward. But the current and next generation of planners have only a finite amount of time left to accumulate this kind of information. When this highly influential generation is gone, their knowledge will be lost.A memorable moment: a piece of history written in ViennaThe coming together of Louis Albrechts, Rachelle Alterman, Michael Batty, Andreas Faludi, John Forester, John Friedmann, Cliff Hague, Peter Hall (via Skype), Patsy Healey, Charles Hoch, Judith Innes, Klaus Kunzmann, Peter Marcuse, Barrie Needham and Gerhard Schimak in Vienna, Austria in May 2014 can certainly be called a memorable moment. All these key thinkers of planning, with the help of their own intellectual biography, how and why they have developed theories and conceptual tools, how these conceptual tools shaped the development of practice, how these planners increasingly organised themselves at international and global scales and the conceptual, institutional and practical lacuna that remain to be filled.Some readers may wonder why exactly these planning pioneers - the average age was 74 years - have been selected. It is certainly true that there are many more out there, who have also influenced and shaped the field of planning over the last five plus decades in one way or another and in all of the different countries around the world. This group, however, has been selected because each individual within the group has distributed their knowledge regularly at international planning conferences or in English-language publication outlets. In other words, they have influenced - and still influence - many planners outside of their countries of origin. (Also, I must admit, that it was this group of people which has influenced me the most, mainly through reading, in the frame of my planning education at the Vienna University of Technology). …" @default.
