Recent Decisions in Planning Law: 1966

During the last sixty years, the nonjudgmental, non-directive attitude has influenced the arts, the humanities, and even the social sciences. Recently, architecture and urban design have felt its impact, and professionals, impressed by upheavals in society and the arts, are beginning to look for new, more receptive ways of seeing the environment. Hopefully, through such confrontations, architects and urban designers will be inspired to develop a respectful understanding of society's cultural artifacts along with a strategy of planned development to suit the felt needs of its people.
