China is passing through massive transformation; from a command to a market economy, from an economy based on agriculture to one based on manufacturing and services, from one with high fertility and low longevity to one faced with OCDE style low fertility and high longevity, and from an economy that was almost totally closed to one that, today, even before her accession to the WTO, is much more open than most countries at the same level of income. This vast movement of transformation started on a very simple principle frequently stated by Deng Xioaping: “Poverty is not socialism”. Prosperity was the new face of the socialism according to Deng Xiaoping’s famous dictum: to get rich is glorious. In the past socialism used to mean government planning, for the new China, it means common prosperity.

U.S.A-China Relations, Is China A Friend Or An Enemy?, Policy And Politics International Perspective Paper, H. John Heinz III School of Public Policy and Management, Carnegie Mellon University, Spring 2006
Background: The relation between U.S.A and China has changed since 1980’s. Today the U.S is the world’s most developed country, while China is the world’s largest developing country. There is a cooperative partnership in many fields between USA and China which is beneficial for both sides. During the last two decades China has practiced remarkable changes. These changes compromise almost all aspects of Chinese society, as well as China’s relations with outside world. Since starting to open up and reform its economy in 1978, China has averaged 9.4 percent annual GDP growth, one of the highest growth rates in the world. China has also attracted hundreds of billions of dollars of foreign investment and more than a trillion dollars of domestic nonpublic investment. Foreign direct investment (FDI) in China has also increased dramatically, rotating China into the 2nd most important recipient of FDI, after the US.

Despite the fact that the impact of the 2008 recession was bigger on the coastal regions, the CP's stimulus package went primarily to the rural regions in China. On the other hand, our tests show that urban provinces in China are more unstable than their rural counterparts.
We provide a theoretical framework and empirical evidence to explain the geographic direction of the CP's stimulus package. In short, we show that the CP's goal was to minimize political instability, by crating an incentive scheme to further encourage the reverse-migration of the “temporary population” back to their Hukou-based jurisdictions.

Low-density development in a foothills suburb west of Denver,

There is no more important community design problem than the redesign
and adaptation of the American suburb--the symbol and logos of
American affluence and technology and growth in the past forty years.

In the United States, more than one million acres of farmland land area. These are just some of the legacies of suburbanization
are lost annually to development. Between 1969 and 1983, since World War II.2

replacing wilderness with grass lawns, farmland with strip malls; they
give priority to the automobile over the pedestrian; they lack
economic and cultural diversity; and the list goes on. But to say that
many suburbs are unsustainable is not enough. What is unsustainable
about them? How did they get that way? What are the economic,
environmental, and social costs associated with a sprawl existence?
Why Focus on Suburban Communities?
Suburban communities warrant focus not because they are
suburbs per se, but because of their common postwar development
patterns. While central cities are generally high-density and often
based on a grid street pattern, and rural areas are very low density
and preserve--whether intended or not--agricultural and natural open
space, suburbs are often neither city nor country. And they are

postwar suburbs especially are low-density settlements comprised of Syracuse; Louisville, Kentucky; and Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
Why are these statistics important? As later sections will

Perhaps suburban trends would not be so significant if
suburbia wasn’t home to so many people. Today, over half of
America’s population lives in suburban settings. Moreover,5
suburban populations and geographic boundaries in many
metropolitan areas are growing at an alarming rate, especially in the
Western U.S. Here, thirteen states make up the most urbanized
region in America. The Seattle metropolitan area, for example, has6
grown from just over one million people in 1950, to nearly
three million in 1995. In that same time span, the Phoenix7
metropolitan area surged from 350,000 people to 2.5 million. And8 ...
Engineering management to urban development, particularly construction projects are
usually considered a ‘high risk job’ mostly because of, a lack of adequate government’s act
with necessary policies, environmental information, and urban construction experiences.
Similar construction projects may have very different risk characteristics of different
development regions in Nepal. It is difficult for a newcomer to identify new risks, in a new
environment and politically instable in the country. It is more difficult to assess these risks
and impact of relationships among them. On the one hand, ignoring these risks is
irresponsible and unrealistic decisions by the professionals. On the other hand, identifying
and assessing all the new risks and their relationships is a very complicated, time-consuming,
and expensive process. This process is possible for the majority of projects, especially when
there are adequate amounts of information, skilled technical team, and enough time. When
such a complex scenario faced the accessing and responding these vital risk factors in urban
development projects becomes extremely important. Engineering knowledge is the basic tools
to apply for drastic change in the country's infrastructures for urban development.
Detroit was the centre of American car production. It was one of the richest countries in not
only the US but also in the world. Ford, Chrysler and General Motors were the “Big Three”
automobile countries attracting vast population into the city. Buildings after buildings came
up, concentrated infrastructure became common. The concept of skyscrapers was becoming
popular to accommodate more and more people.
But our ‘motor city’ started to lose its importance since the 1930s. It started losing its
population, i.e., started “shrinking”. According to Karina Pallagst, professor for Internation al
Planning Systems at Kaiserslautern University’s faculty of Spatial Planning (she previously
worked at UC Berkeley’s centre for Global Metropolitan Studies (GMS) and the Institute of
Urban and Regional Development (IURD)), says that “A shrinking city is characterised by
economic decline and-as a consequence- the transformation of urban areas. In addition, loss
of employment opportunities tend to spark partial out-migration. In the United States,
shrinkage can either be part of post-industrial transformations related to the decline of the
manufacturing industry, or it can be triggered by economic changes in the so-called “post-
industrial transformations of a second generation” within the high tech industry(e.g. the
dot-com bust) [12]. (Pallagst, 2007)”

SECTION 2
Development and Urbanization
Editors’ Introduction
Development and urbanization are closely articulated fi elds of study and practice. While urbanization and cities
are not an invention of the development era or the industrialized world, the discourse of development has
helped shape the discourses of contemporary urbanization. How development is defi ned, how it is measured,
whose development experience is counted and recognized, contemporary all have been the subject of debate
and critique with signifi cant implications for urban policies in the global South. The overall goal of this introduction
is to highlight the shifting terrain of discourses, institutions, and actors of development and urbanization and
their impact. “Whose development?” and “whose cities?” are two questions looming large in these debates,
around which we organize this brief introduction.
KEY ISSUES
Discursive shifts: whose development?
Since World War II, the record of the development enterprise and its glaring failure to bring about a dignifi ed
livelihood for the majority in the global South has invoked a range of important critiques from various corners.
In the 1960s and 1970s, against the backdrop of policies that understood development as national economic
growth, scholars looking at economic growth and poverty in growing cities declared that development was
not benefi ting the poor. Some called for a kind of development that addressed the basic needs of people and
advocated “growth with equity” (Streeten 1995; Burkey 1996). Others advocated a self-help movement in
housing that learned from the poor and their informal strategies (Turner 1977). These critics were joined
by feminist scholars and activists who in the 1970s had scrutinized agricultural modernization from a
gendered perspective (Boserup 1970). In the 1980s they demonstrated that economic development as
promoted through modernization and industrialization policies was also not benefi cial for poor women in
urban areas. They argued that development diminished the socio-economic status of women and their power
within the household, even as it increased their domestic burden (Brydon and Chant 1989; Potts 1999; Mies
et al. 1988; Crewe and Harrison 1998). In the same period, environmental movements demonstrated that
decades of implementing development policies and projects for economic growth had increased environmental
problems with devastating consequences for the poor, particularly for indigenous communities. They declared
development as not only excluding the poor but also damaging to the earth (Esteva and Prasak 1997; Peet
and Watts 1993; Hecht 2004; Mies and Shiva 1993). By the 1990s, post-developmentalist scholars and
activists pushed these oppositional voices further, arguing that development was not good for humanity, period.
They declared it was the success of development, not its failure, that we should fear (Sachs 1992; Ferguson
1994; Escobar 1995).

Chapter 4 is a discussion of Detroit's economic trends, based off of workforce participation, industries in the city, and what kinds of jobs Detroiters held in those industries. This analysis was supported heavily by census data I collected, which is included in an appendix that is uploaded separately
There is no doubt that the lives of cities and of the businesses located in them are inextricably intertwined. But how closely linked are cities' economic growth and their liveability?
A survey of urban professionals conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit shows that the idea of liveability has a number of different components. Jobs and cost of living, public transport and roads, safety and security and culture and nightlife all rank highly among our respondents' list of factors contributing to a city's attractiveness as a place to live and work.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Economic Growth and Development; Processes,
Stages, and Determinants
Wilbur R. Thomson
7. Principal Cause of USA dramatic Urban Growth
1. Advance agriculture technology post WW II (percentage labor
engaged to agriculture drop from 12% in 1950 to 6% in 1960)
2. Farm birth rate above the urban (lack of employment in
countryside resulted urbanization)
3. Manufacturing and service in urban side absorbed intensive labor
4. Urban demographic and urban size simultaneously growth

9. The urban growth complex by Wilbur R. Thomson 1965
**Arrows point : direction of money flow
9/31
1. Three plants with export objective
2. Mutual advantage from local labor availability
3. Plants attracted foreign suppliers relate manufacture,
Increased local exports, generated higher local income, and
added local value
4. Adding plants by-product linkage
5. Local business service increased
6. Various local business/service, replaced foreign branch
7. Local business self-sufficient follows by growing complexity
requires foreign esoteric business service
8. Good local income enriches consumer service
9. Consumer expenditure rise faster than export payrolls
10. Consumer service rise in number and scale
11. Urban area hierarchy then upgraded. Explicitly recognize by
industrial structure
12. Metropolis may extend its growth into large scale
13. Local market attract more branch plant of outside firm
14. Branch plants spun off to reach growing metropolis
1. The many lines of linkage
10. 10/31 2. The Stage of Urban Growth
1. Export specialization
2. Export complex
3. Economic maturation / Local service sector puberty
4. Regional metropolis
5. Technical-professional virtuosity
Local economic is a lengthened shadow of single dominant industry/firm
Local production broaden to other product and/or deepens by extending forward/backward in the
stage of production, by adding local suppliers/consumers of intermediate products
Expansion of local product/activity to replace import by “own-use
Local economic turn into a connection and controlling neighborhood cities that once rival then satellite.
Export services is the major economic function.
Cities with national eminence in some specialized skill/economic function is achieved
Detroit; Automotive design….Boston; Education…San Francisco; Culture center…NY + LA; Finance
11. 11/31 3. Failure of Momentum Between Stage in Growth
Local economy Large town
Export diversification General industry
manufacturing plants with export oriented will move
local economic together with harbor, waterway,
technology advance to generate sufficient growth
force.
Local economic rise by export diversification of manufacturing
plants, strong surge of local service industry, replacing import by
local product, and transportation system enhancement can
generate growth of a city into a general Industry stage
**If a city fail to add number of plants for export diversification, not
strong local service and local market, and no surge of own-use product,
the growth of local economic will stagnate between any of stage
12. 12/31 4. Challenge and Response; A tell of 3 cities
• Hit by economic stagnation prior-outbreak of WW II because factories
became old and obsolete, and businesses moved out of the region for
cheaper labor
• Shortly after WW II ended, city rebuilt on a base of superior on higher
educational facilities that area spawned a complex of research and
development work and manufacturing activity in R&D-oriented
industry
Boston
• Boomed during WWII to supply backlog demand of steel. Hard hit by
WW II recession 1949-1954, rebirth during late 55s by Smoke
Abatement Programs (physical renewal in Golden Triangle) sponsorship
by state co-operation with local universities.
• She led innovations and industries in aluminum, glass, shipbuilding,
petroleum, foods, appliances, sports, transportation, computing, retail,
cars, & electronics. Placed her as 3rd (NY & Chicago) in corporate
headquarters employment & 2nd (NY) in bank assets
Pittsburgh
• Unscathed by post WWII recession in backlog demand for
automobile, but in 1960s, automobile industry matured, automated,
decentralize into sub-urb, global competition, and demilitarized,
generated unemployment in the city (then decline in population)
• Too deep thought of harvest more lucrative in automobile business,
Detroit missed the chance in aircraft production at least for its
engines which is conversely to Los Angeles
• Urban decay undermines Detroit into the present day that she has
been described by some as a “ghost town”
Detroit

14. 14/31 5. The urban size ratchet
A. Growth and size come from industrial diversification that
produce local rates (perhaps deviated slightly from
national/regional average rate). To house a complex linkage
local business will demand large urban area
B. Urban growth from achievement of threshold size simply for
political power (larger population comes greater electoral
strength that those to extent federal aids and public work
projects)
C. Immobile capital in urban area (structures and infrastructures)
is low cost of service
D. Great size industrial activity is oriented to costumer rather that
source of supply. Larger urban area is a mass potential
costumer
E. Steady supply of industrial leadership
At certain range of urban scale, the nature of its hinterland, the degree of its
industrial development and various cultural factors, some growth mechanism
similar to ratchet
15. 6. Management as the scarce factor in urban growth15/31
Absolute size as a brake for the growth of urban area, to consider;
• Increasing cost of public service (due to density, congestion, and bureaucracy)
• Decreasing quality of public service (due to limit budget inversely to density)
• Managerial inefficiency (with highly variability between urban areas)
**Quality of local public legislator and administrator (government personnel)
16. QU0TATION16/31
“Urban growth after achievement of some threshold size is
simple power politics. With a large population come
greater electoral strength at both the state and national
level and with reference to both executive and legislative
bodies ……………….. Thus, to the extent that federal and
state financial aids and public work project can be revive
faltering urban economies” (Wilbur R. Thomson. 1965)
“Greater proportion of industrial activity is oriented to
costumer rather than to source of supply, and the larger
urban areas amass potential costumers” (Wilbur R. Thomson. 1965)

19. 19/31 Development Planning as the Only Game in Town
Lisa R. Peattie, Stephen Cornell, Martin Rein
The purpose of the Article is :
By examining development project in Boston City, the article
tends to explain why“Development Planning” or “Planning for Business”
becomes a primary concern in American city government.
**The author also show how the interest of different constituencies
converge to support development planning.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston
20. 20/31 1. Introduction
Development planning Planning for Business
To produce a city environment in which private/profit-
making enterprise can successfully function and to introduce
kinds of enterprise to be located in the community
Fact: A problematic process to be implemented but the obvious thing to do
**Require multi actors collaboration : Federal & state government, city hall, local business-
elite, outside investors, aldermen, and ordinary residents
**Diverse interest agenda from actors upon development planning
-- Business interest (original purpose)
-- Human service (drive by politician during election time)
Howdevelopment planning should be done by planners?
simply doing the plan upon their professional prestige?
simply under state or federal control upon the funds?
simply in the best interest of the voters?

21. 21/31 2. The city and development planning
Boston
• Working class bedroom community which are citizens work outside the city
• 3 major ethics (Irish, Italians, and Portuguese)
• 1940s was most densely city in USA……since 1945 hit by population declining
• 1958, Ford assembly plant sited in Boston with 1800 jobs but 1977 left (costing the city with 1.000 jobs)
• Before 1960’s, substrate of city politic was a set of interlinked family group with connection to the government
• After 1960’s, progressive reform from conservative reaction into “clean government”
• Late 60’s, new Mayor (with civil right background and “revolutionary spirit”) set up “service center” in the City Hall

22. 22/31 3. The planning process
To understand the logic of development planning is
from its center = Development package
Components of Development package:
1. Land
2. Political support
3. Public fund (federal or/and state)
4. Private investment
Planners Jobs : Entrepreneurial
Unified all components into physical outcome
a. Locating physical opportunity for development
b. Obtaining public fund and potential investor
c. Drumming up political support
Community participation
Served to keep planning process open to outside
developers and prevent a takeover by local political
insiders
Leaded planner into a better design
Major project:
1. School re-use development of commercial center
2. Boy’s Club
3. Squares / commercial nodes for metro subway
4. Sub-urban shopping mall supported by UDAG
23. 23/31 4. Human Services planning
Planning division at Boston city government in 1960’s
(during the “reformer” Mayor)
Professional :
Office of planning and community development (located in
the 3rd F of City Hall)
Concern with physical reorganization of the city “development planning”
Political :
Office Human service (located in the basement of City Hall, Linked
the Mayor with federal/state funded social service agency, and also
citizens who is seeking help. With the major piece equipment is
telephone)
Concern in maintaining individual voters and outside agencies'
connection with the mayor. And have been active in the Mayor’s electoral
campaign (in fact, the head office was Mayor's campaign manager)

24. 24/31 5. Land use and housing; A contentious terrain
Development Planning is not only representing a choice among competing agendas, it has
the inherent potential deep social conflict beyond the issue raised by particular projects
Boston’s Gentrification program (1960s - 1980s)
Arguments :
1. The decline of industry, real estate become biggest business in the city
2. Rents are rising in the private sector, but not for subsidized housing
3. Working class families was dominate the city’s population, but lately many left
the city to response the shift of jobs market or other reasons
4. To response the real estate trend, gentrification was implemented
5. Two groups in conflict that pro and contra to the program
pro : improvement of living environment and real estate interests
contra : replacement of the low income resident and rents rate issue that
beyond students or working class family can afford
25. 25/31
6. Issue Politics
Comments for a certain development project represent a very
different way of looking at planning, not in terms of programs
or institutional arena, but as issue based on politics that tends
to be confronting in the development planning process
The organizers of issue politics differ sharply from planner and
politician’s mainstream in seeing specific development
planning objective as mean rather than ends
7. Discussion
In planners professional culture : logic of tax base, investor’s
interests, federal funds, professional pride in design of build
environment, all support and feed on each other
Planner’s role in development is essentially entrepreneur that
capable to interpret provide project as serving public use
26. QU0TATION26/31
“In theory, economic recession might dictate as a surge of interest in the
basic issue of jobs and income. But in the practice, the effect has been the
reverse. Federal funds get less, private investment dries, and development
planning looks more important than ever, simply as a way to keep the city
going” (Lisa R. Peattie, Stephen Cornell, Martin Rein - 1985)
“The planner’s role in development is essentially an entrepreneur…………………
the rule of planner is, in part, to interpret private project as serving public
use” (Lisa R. Peattie, Stephen Cornell, Martin Rein - 1985)

“Converting the Military Industrial
Economy: The Experience at Six Facilities
”Catherine Hill, Sabina Deitrick, Ann Markusen
The Article focus on :
Enormous challenge of converting military facilities in USA
into civilian use and differentiating demand side from supply side
approaches
29. 29/31 1. The context: Military builddown
The cut-back budget in America Military
during last 10 year (1990s-2000s),
affected :
1. Job market relate military sector
2. Military dedicated plant (own by government)
3. Defense manufactures
4. Direct an indirect impact public infrastructure as
supplement in military community (housing, school,
highway, ….ect)
***For the reality of cut-back budget, task of economic conversion in
military sectors have been considerable interested and debated by the late
1980s, and yet the conversion in military sectors already implemented

2. The conversion nexus: supply and demand when government are the market
30/31
3. Four Adjustment models
Author examine four alternative models of conversion that organized
around a different target and lead actors.
1. converting the company (corporate diversification)
2. converting the economic development model (economic base community)
3. converting the individual employee (worker adjustment model)
4. converting the facility /alternative use model (most difficult but most attractive in
terms of retaining jobs and stabilizing communities)
The relationship between the military industrial sectors and the state :
demand (state) ----- supply (private sector)
**defense manufacturers can sell abroad, marketing to foreign
governments remains tied to the foreign policy.
31. 4. Facility conversion – An evaluation
6 conversion efforts in the 1980s

Conclusion
1. worker participation and unity enhance prospects for success
2. To be success, requires early warning and financial disclosure on the part of
the company and government is needed for job training, planning assistance,
and financial support
None has succeeded in the
narrow sense of preserving jobs
common obstacles
unsuitability of current business in the
commercial markets competition for the

33. Presentation NOTE ^____^
1/31 (slide)
2/31 Articles discuss more about development in economic perspective. That all of them based on American’s cities in urban planning
experiences
3/31 Why chapter 6th ? Need to understand the meaning of economic development and the interpretation of economic development problems
in the planning practice. And also, want to capture the idea of how economic development occurs at each level of development, with all the
emerging approaches including; process, actor, and planner's roles from America experiences through its contemporary issues presented in the
chapter 6th
4/31 author background (among the 1st scholar to recognize that urban economics is important to be studying, His analyses relate to urban
growth process in this article still stand as a useful and accurate analysis even almost 49 years after this article was written)
5/31 This article sections all interlinked to express the urban growth process, including success and failure story of some American cities
6/31 At the beginning, Thomson expressed about America tends to be a country of very large cities. Which are growth and development might
become “Urban Problems”
7/31 He led us with a common sense about the principal reason why American’s cities experience dramatic growth. He stated, by the time the
2nd world war come to end, advance agriculture technology immerged, requires less human power. People in the rural area move into urban
side, where manufacturing and service activity absorbed intensive labor.
8/31 With the reality that America tends to be a country of very large cities that “growth” of the city might become an urban Problem. Then,
Thompson tried to explain urban growth problem, resulted from Interurban competition, that size of distribution and spatial pattern of cities is a
vital element of urban economic
9/31 Thompson provided an illustration of how a city able to extent it “growth process”, Figure (arrows point out the money flow)For example,
(1, 2, 10) if a city with adequate population for labor accepted some plants with export objective built in the area, (3,4,5,6,7) this plants will
attract outsider suppliers relate manufacture, generated higher local income, and added local value, or even another plants by-product linkage
will soon built in the city (8,9,11,12) Various local business and services increased, then lately will replace foreign branch. The self-sufficient of
local business will follow the growing complexity of business service. Good local income then enriches consumer service, and rise in number and
scale. (13,14) Urban area hierarchy of this city then upgraded…perhaps recognize by industrial structure in regional or national level. City change
into Metropolis and may extend its growth into large scale because local market keep attract more branch plant of foreign firm that spin off to
reach growing metropolis
10/31. Thompson, there are 5 stages that a city might experience during her growth (slides).
11/31 Thompson indicate that not every city that have original growth able to keep the speed of growth,
For a city with export-oriented production, it will require structure and infrastructure development in order to generate sufficient growth force
into the stage or large town. Or, even for a city which has diversification manufacture for export-oriented. Without replacing import by local
product, and structure and infrastructure upgrading, this city might fail to growth as a general Industry city
12/31 3 cities took as an example of success and failure story of some American cities (slides), Boston growth had reach into as a Metropolitan
scale (10th largest metropolitan in USA) and a home for 4.5 million inhabitant. Pittsburg, similar to Boston, had maintain her growth up to
metropolitan scale 2,6 million population, 20th largest city in USA. A little bit different to Boston and Pittsburgh, Detroit (I found that : USA
government has declared bankruptcy of Detroit city on December 3th 2013 with 18.5 billion debt)
34. 13/31 Pittsburgh’s Golden Triangle
14/31 growth mechanism similar to ratchet(slides)
15/31 Thompson try to warning of some disadvantages if we put urban area into infinite growth.
16/31 Quotations (important of urban population from economic development perspective. Where before I though urban population is nothing but problems
for physical urban development)
17/31 2nd article (slides)
18/31 sections describe the development planning process based on its issue section in Boston city during late 1960’s until early 1980’s
19/31 (slide)
20/31 (slide)
21/31 (slide) Boston’s background. Service center received critics from conservative group for their aggressive planning programs
22/31 explain how to understand the logic of development planning process, in which they argue, can be understood from understanding the development
package which concise 4 components. It is planner’s jobs to unify all components into physical outcome and promote it to obtain public fund and private
investor, as well as drumming-up the idea to have political support. In other hand, community participation will keep the planning process in democracy stage
even for outsider developer and also leaded planners into a better design. In the case of Boston City, there were 4 major planning projects mentioned in the
article and describe how the planning process went on, in which authors describe their planning process as the arena of the game
23/31 mentioned in the introduction section(diverse interest agenda of multi actors and city government is not an exception) For his “human service” agenda,
the “reformer” Mayor, who served in the early 1960’s set up 2 different Planning division at Boston city government (slide)
24/31 (slide) issue of social conflict during Boston’s Gentrification rise-up by the author in this section
It is implicitly shown that implementation process of Development Planning program is not enough if only depending on development package. Planners need
to anticipate some issues or conflict rise during or after some particular projects have done.
25/31 In this section, personally I feel that authors try to convince us as planner that critics addressed to a certain development project mostly its purpose
was not to improve the quality of project, but rather than based on political game that tends to confront some decision.
26/31 quotations that I think important from this article. 1st had opened my perspective horizons wider relate to planning profession, 2nd quotation had
gave me pretty much clear understanding about how the system operate in the development planning agenda
27/31 (slide)
28/31 (slide)
29/31 (slide) background; in the bigger frame will also effected state economy stability with a serious recession
30/31 relationship between the military industrial sectors and the government (slide) state stand as buyer, where supplier is the private sector (firms and
plants in the military market sell the product to a government bureaucracy). 3rd sub-tittle (slide)
31/31. 4th sub-tittle, Authors examine 6 conversion efforts implemented in 1980s, From The 6 conversion efforts, authors found that none has succeeded in
the narrow sense of preserving jobs but as a group, the cases demonstrate the ability and willingness of defense workers to plan for civilian work. The
conversion efforts share a common obstacles in aspect of unsuitability of current business in the commercial markets competition for the ex- defense
workers. To be success, it is requires early warning and financial disclosure on the part of the company and government is needed for job training, planning
assistance, and financial support
