This event is organised in collaboration with the AESOP TG on Planning Theories.

JACOBS on KROPOTKIN - Mutual aid, local planning, and law. At the turn of the 20th century PatrickGeddes, Ebenezer Howard, Lewis Mumford were all strongly influenced by Peter Kropotkin. 21st century global environmental and economic conditions again make his ideas relevant.

MORONI on HAYEK - Land, market, and the law. Neither Hayek nor other classical liberals have ever been in favor of an unrestrained market. The crucial role of the law, rather than that of the market, is the true focus of F.A. Hayek’s legacy.

DAVY on KELSEN - A pure theory of planning law? Hans Kelsen proclaimed that law is based on ideology. A »pure theory of law« (Kelsen) must leave ideology behind. Since planners love ideology, I am asking: Does a pure theory of law work for planners?
