Planning Theories and Existing Systematisation Approaches

Publications: Contribution to bookChapterPeer Reviewed

Abstract

Theories reflect different bodies of knowledge and are based on characteristic assumptions and basic values. Previous systematisation approaches place significant importance on the historical genesis and changes in planning understandings as well as in the distinction between substantive and procedural theories. Existing systematisations provide an overview of the different theoretical approaches over time or in practical research work. This does not yet correspond to a systematisation of planning knowledge with regard to scientific-theoretical foundations.
