Boundary Interaction in Emerging Scenes: Two Participatory Planning Cases from Finland

Helena Leino

Planning Theory & Practice, 2012, vol. 13, issue 3, 383-396

Abstract: This article examines the self-organising features of participatory planning. The argument is that the complexity and non-linearity of present-day participatory practices unavoidably transgresses the formal linear idea of public interaction in planning processes. To study this development, the article approaches public participation as boundary interaction (Wenger, 2003). The approach is applied to two cases of participatory planning in Finland. Further, the article analyses the possibilities self-organising initiatives offer for developing cooperative practices in urban planning.
