urban planning paradigms

While en route to an urban design studio review via public transit (which always makes me feel like an anthropologist!) , I sketched out an organizational scheme for planning approaches that really makes sense to me. This has been a thorn-in-the-side - I've been mulling over how to talk to my class about 3 very different readings for several days now. Hooray! finally light dawns.

In short: who is doing the planning; whether the method is process-oriented or outcomes-oriented; whom the plan is for; and what values are implicit in the method - these are my main data points. We will do a graphic organizer; and then we will apply these approaches. Yay. I love it when I am able to organize ideas from my readings into some sort of coherent pattern!
