http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/carfax/09654313.html

European Planning Studies provides a forum for ideas and 
information about spatial development processes and 
policies in Europe. The journal publishes articles of a 
theoretical, empirical and policy-relevant nature and is 
particularly concerned to integrate knowledge of processes 
with practical policy proposals, implementation and 
evaluation. 

Articles of particular interest to the journal focus upon 
specific spatial development problems, as well as emerging 
explanations of new urban, regional, national or 
supranational developmental tendencies. Country-specific, 
region-specific or locality-specific issues are focused 
upon, although comparative analysis is of especial value. 
Case studies of successful spatial policies and critiques 
of policy failure based on in-depth study are both 
welcomed. A key feature of the journal is to generalize 
learning about best practice analysis and policy-
formulation in the field of spatial development planning. 

Additionally, European Planning Studies features articles 
which focus on the functional dimensions of planning, such 
as infrastructure, communications, environmental quality, 
design, cultural, social welfare, recreational, housing, 
industrial and employment concerns of planning at whatever 
spatial scale. Articles which are concerned with these 
questions in an appropriate spatial context, given the 
scope of the journal, are of special interest. The journal 
also carries European Briefing, Research Briefing and Book 
Reviews sections. 

European Planning Studies is published in cooperation with 
the Association of European Schools of Planning (AESOP), an 
independent body of professional planning educators with a 
membership of over 100 planning schools throughout Western 
and Eastern Europe.
