Funded Activity Summary

An Intellectual History of Modern Australian Planning 1900-2000. Urban planning is forward-looking but is constantly leveraging knowledge from the past. This original project will investigate the key ideas which have shaped modern planning thought in Australia, concentrating on the 20th century. It will focus on leading practitioners, advocates, public intellectuals, and community critics in an ideas-centred intellectual history that fills a major knowledge gap. The critical transition away from post-consensus planning in the last 3 decades of the 20th century will be an important focus and linked to a national oral history exercise before the opportunity is lost forever. Development of an open access biographical website sharing data will bedrock the project.
