Planning involves shaping the future through processes like determining future actions, improving settlements, promoting equity and citizen participation. Planners come from various backgrounds and work in government, non-profits and private sectors. They represent the public, assist decision-makers and deal with complex problems. However, planners accomplish little alone and must work with various stakeholders. Planning is inherently political due to its impact and need for support. Key debates in planning theory include defining planning's history and roles, justifying intervention, determining appropriate approaches, and balancing expertise with public values.

An urban area is characterized by higher population density and vast human features in comparison to areas surrounding it. Urban areas may be cities, towns or conurbations, but the term is not commonly extended to rural settlements such as villages. Any portion of earth’s surface where physical conditions are homogeneous can be considered as a Region in geographic sense, ranging from a single feature region to compage, depending on the
criteria used for delineation. In practice, a prefix is added to highlight the attributes on which the region has been defined, for example, agriculture region, resource region, city region, planning region.

Case Law Analysis - Intellectual Property
In this unit, you will select a case law pertaining to the topic of intellectual property.
Each case law analysis allows you to express yourself as clearly and fully as possible in dissecting a court decision. The purpose of the assignment is two-fold:
1. To give you the opportunity to read a real court decision.
2. To challenge you to think about how you would have decided the case. In your case law analyses, you must be able to navigate the court's decision and summarize it; you are not expected to act as a judge or an advocate.
Using your selected court decision, prepare an analysis that responds to the following:
1. Articulates the importance, context, purpose, and relevance of law in a business environment:
. Identify the parties who are before the court.
. Provide a brief background to the problem. Summarize the facts in no more than 2–3 paragraphs.
. Identify what is the specific disagreement between the parties.
. Explain the ruling of the court in no more than 1–2 paragraphs.
· Evaluates key judicial concepts that influence the decisions related to business:
. Was there a dissenting opinion? If so, explain why some of the judges or justices disagreed with the majority in the decision.
. Do you agree with the court's decision? Why or why not?
You may choose any court case, either state or federal, as the basis for your case law analysis; however, the case should be applicable to the assignment topic. The recommended Web sites for researching and locating a case are listed in the Resources area.
Your analysis should be no more than two pages, double-spaced. References and citations are to adhere to APA formatting and style guidelines. Prior to submitting your assignment, be sure to review the scoring guide to ensure you have met all of the grading criteria.
RESEARCH PROPOSAL
Community Driven Urban Design: Social Practice Tactics for
Addressing Issues of the Built Environment
ABSTRACT:
Several professionals in the field of architecture and urban design employ creative tactics focused on social impact, civic
dialogue, and grass roots placemaking. Drawing on socially responsible urban design theory, as well as principles of arts-
based civic engagement and social change, these efforts have gained momentum in the 21st century due to a variety of
economic, governmental, social and technological factors. This research capstone will include an extensive literature
review through two courses – PPPM 523 Urban Revitalization and an independent reading course on “bottom-up”
urban design with Professor Philip Speranza – as well as web-based document analysis of select case studies. The
purpose of this study is to locate these tactics within current urban redevelopment policy and arts-based community
development theory, and outline elements of best practice as a means of advancing the field of community driven urban
design.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
History & Theory of Planning: Introduction to Planning
1. PLAN 3022: Planning History & Theory
Week 01: Introduction to Planning
Anuradha Mukherji
Assistant Professor of Urban and Regional Planning
2. What is Planning?
• A process by which we attempt to shape the future? Forward
looking. Seeks to determine future action.
According to the Association of Collegiate Schools of Planning
(ACSP), the field has focused on:
• Improvement of settlements
• Community interconnections
• Plan-making for future
• Social & economic equity
• Citizen participation in process
6. Who are Planners?
• Where From:
- A variety of backgrounds
- Formal training in planning
• For who:
- Government, all levels (local, state, federal, inter-
government organizations)
- Private Non-profits
- Private sector (consultants, companies)
• Expertise: Specialists & Generalists
- Transportation planner, neighborhood planner,
economic development planner
7. Role of Planners
• Represent the public (who is the public?)
• Assist decision-makers
• Moderators / Mediators
• Deal with wicked problems
Ill and variously defined
A lack of consensus regarding their causes
Lack obvious solutions
Have numerous links to other problems
• Location, political cultures, economic cycles, local power
configuration – all impact planners and planning
• Need: Political smarts, excellent communication skills
8. Planning Stakeholders
Planners accomplish little by themselves
• Property Owners
• Bankers
• Developers
• Architects
• Lawyers
• Contractors
• Community groups
• Civic organizations
• Elected and appointed public officials
• Municipal employees
9. Political Nature of Planning
• “Planning action can significantly affect the lives of large
numbers of people, and since different individuals and groups
may hold different views about how the environment should
be planned, based on values and interests, it is therefore also
a political activity.” (Nigel Taylor, 1998)
• Political support needed for acceptance and implementation
of plans
• Need: Political smarts, excellent communication skills
10. Political Nature of Planning
ATTITUDES TOWARDS THE POLITICAL NATURE OF
PLANNING
• Acceptance
• Acting Upon
• Ill-prepared to act upon the political content of work
• Lack understanding of the political system (ignorance)
• Lack knowledge of the techniques needed to function
effectively within it (inadequate education)
• Feel overwhelmed by the political forces (despair)
• Reject the notion that planning is subject to political power
(denial)
11. Political Nature of Planning
FUTURE PLANNING GRADUATES?
“New planners often expert their work to involve more or less rational
analysis to solve relatively well-defined problems. Instead, they find
complex relationships with other professionals, bureaucratic managers,
elected officials, and community groups. Many have difficulty making or
affecting decisions under political conditions; many wish for securely
technical roles. Apparently, such planners expect to conduct research, but
are not prepared for interaction and intervention. (Howell Baum)”
12. Planning Challenges
BROAD SCOPE OF PLANNING:
• Proper use of land
• Neighborhood revitalization
• Suburban sprawl
• Growth management
• Inadequate transportation systems
• Shortage of affordable housing
• Air and water quality
• Decaying infrastructure
• Inadequate or outmoded parks and recreation
• Social Equity
ALSO ISSUES OF: Crime, Public Health, Hunger, Economic
Development, Public Schools
18. Why Planning Theory
1. Complexity of data and issues in planning
Theory gives a basis for:
- What data we collect
- How we organize it
- How we use it to make decisions
2. Values and questions planners face
WHAT is or should be the topic or focus of planning?
WHO does the planner work for?
WHY: What is the goal of planning?
HOW do we achieve the goals?
WHAT is practical/pragmatic behavior/expections?
But also cumulative knowledge of history and ideas that help
understand the processes that planners engage in.
19. What is Planning Theory
1. Broader inquiry concerning the role of the state in social and spatial
transformation. Overlaps theory in all social sciences. Hard to limit scope
or stake out a turf specific to planning.
1. Boundary between planners and related professionals (i.e., real estate
developers, architects, city council) is not mutually exclusive. Planners
don’t just plan and non-planners also plan. Hard to distinguish planning
from broader forces of urbanization and recognize what exactly planners
do. Who exactly designs, builds, manages, and finally tears down cities?
1. Field divided between those who define it according to its object (land use
patterns) and those who look at its method (the process of decision
making). Driven by separate set of theoretical questions and priorities.
1. Most fields defined by a set of methodologies. Planning borrows diverse
methodologies from many different fields. It is defined more by a shared
interest in space and place, commitment to civic community & pragmatic
orientation toward professional practice.

Planning History: A critical reflective look at political, economic & cultural
forces that continually transform planning ideology & practice.
A. Late 1800s – 1910:
The formative years during which the pioneers (Ebenezer
Howard, Daniel Burnham, etc.) did not yet identify themselves as
planners.
B. 1910 – 1945:
The period of institutionalization, professionalization, and self-
recognition of planning, together with the rise of regional and
national planning efforts.
C. The postwar era of standardization, crisis, and diversification of
planning
What are the historical roots of planning?
(The role of history in planning theory) - IDENTITY1
21. Planning Theory – Defining Debates
By Campbell & Fainstein, 1996, pp. 1-14
Why Plan?
“Planning is intervention with an intention to alter the existing course
of events (p.6).”
Why and in what situations should planners intervene?
• When and how much should the government ‘intrude’?
• Blurring of sectoral boundaries (public-private sectors)
• The growing public-private partnership and non-profit (or third
sector)
Are the (new) alternative plans good?
“The hope of rational planning is (simply) to replace the uncertainty of
the market with the logic of the plan (p.6).”
What is the justification for planning?
When should one intervene?2
22. Planning Theory – Defining Debates
By Campbell & Fainstein, 1996, pp. 1-14
Serving the public interest?
Emergence of private and quasi-private planners – Owe loyalty to the
public at large?
What are planning functions?
Merely provide technical activities to decision makers?
Or beyond that… to address larger social, economic, and
environmental challenges?
Difficulties surrounding the planner’s role as expert?
Balance between expertise and citizen input
Sensitive subjects, which particular social groups must bear the costs
– e.g., highways and waste disposal facilities
‘Rules of the game’
What values are incorporated within planning?3
23. Planning Theory – Defining Debates
By Campbell & Fainstein, 1996, pp. 1-14
Contexts
• Constraints of capitalist political economy and their urban visions
• Compete with developers, consumers, and other powerful groups
Ownership of resources
Planners cannot command the resources to make it happen. Instead,
they must rely on either private investment or a commitment from
political leaders
Reliance on bureaucracy
They work within the constraints of democracy and of the
governmental bureaucracy
The constrains on planning power:
Planning effectiveness in a mixed economy?4
25. Planning Theory – Defining Debates
By Campbell & Fainstein, 1996, pp. 1-14
Comprehensive vs. incremental planning
Objectivity vs. advocacy
Centralization vs. decentralization
Top-down vs. bottom-up leadership
Planning for people vs. planning for place
DEBATES OVER PUBLIC INTEREST
