Abstract: This article discusses the expansion of private-led planning in Greece in the context of the changes that occurred in Greek planning policy and practice during the economic crisis of the 2010s and beyond. It examines the policy agendas and planning instruments adopted under the bailout programs, as well as the types of private-led initiatives that emerged in planning practice. It further analyzes the driving forces and the directions of change and assesses their significance. By linking external pressure to endogenous drivers of change, the article advances a bottom-up research agenda for examining planning reform and change under conditions of crisis.
