Shifting Sense presents Spatial Planning and Urbanism from a ""Delft"" perspective. The book reviews past, present and future perspectives of spatial planning. It shows its development as a discipline in the context of urban planning and design (urbanism), resulting in a comprehensive book which recaps and sets cornerstones for formulating future outlooks. It hopes to serve as an inspiration for a next generation of students, researchers, and practitioners. This title is a Rozenberg Press Title.

Shifting Sense in Spatial Planning provides a clear and integrated view of possible regional and urban futures set within the contesting contexts of globalization and an ever more intense search for local identity. Although the inherent contradiction of greater localism in a globalizing world may, at a superficial glance, appear to be symptomatic of a confused analysis, the reality is that place and places are constant elements that provide social cohesion and offer a basis for planned transition. In emphasising the importance of the spatial, and by setting this assessment within specific socio-economic contexts, the various chapters of Shifting Sense in Spatial Planning offer valuable insights into the challenges facing both academics and society as a whole.
