Abstract (en)

The 20th c. [American] land use plan has evolved from simple roots in civic design and zoning into an intricate combination of design, policy, and management. Its family tree illustrates how new branches growing from different disciplinary roots have been integrated into contemporary hybrid plans. A source of the vitality of traditional land use planning has been its ability to respond to and incorporate new approaches, including verbal policy plans, growth management plans, and land classification plans. Despite predictions of its demise, land use planning is still a mainstay of efforts to manage community change, while becoming more participatory and electronically based, and concerned with increasingly complex issues.
