Abstract

This chapter elaborates the concept of insurgent planning (IP) and why it needs to be taken seriously in planning education, scholarship, and practice. It describes the crises and social contradictions of the late 20th and early 21st centuries and the implications of the resulting political and ideological shifts for planning. The chapter discusses the political philosophies that drive liberal democratic and insurgent citizenship practices and argues that IP ontologically departs from liberal traditions of so-called inclusive planning that have held the inclusion of disadvantaged groups as an objective of professional intervention. It discusses the potential flexibility of these forms of action and dispels a binary misconception of invited versus invented spaces for citizens&s; direct action. The chapter focuses on the theoretical construct of IP as practices that are transgressive, counter-hegemonic, and imaginative. It inspires by anticolonial scholars and activists of liberation and discusses the urgency in decolonizing the future as a realm of political contestation and imagination.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
