EUropeanisation or Europeanisation of spatial planning?

Planning Theory & Practice, 2014, vol. 15, issue 2, 155-169

Abstract: This review paper revisits European spatial planning in terms of its EUropeanisation, meaning that planning becomes part of the EU policy-making state, and its Europeanisation which stands for mutual learning. The paper argues that by the mid twentieth century this Europeanisation had reached a point where it was natural for planners to want to be part of the agenda-building for European integration. However, their success in penetrating the decision agenda of the EU continues to be limited. While the EUropeanisation of planning has thus stalled, thanks amongst others to EU programmes, mutual learning and thus its Europeanisation has accelerated. Based on this, the paper constructs "business as usual" and "deep change" scenarios under which, by rethinking categories basic to their trade like space and territory, planners can get involved in reconfiguring European integration.
