Abstract

Lieven Ameel's book The Narrative Turn in Urban Planning offers a critical examination of the role of narratives and story-telling in questions concerning urban planning in future deliberations of urban change. The discussion provides an excellent way to identify, define and construct our understanding about narratives in and of planning, including the construction of a typology for the first time. But narratives of and for planning tend to mask wider meta-narrative issues that will affect how places are shaped and are changed in the future. These drivers of change not only encompass a range of socio-economic and environmental challenges. They will also have profound implications for our use of technology, and for the way our democratic processes operate. Such dramatic changes will impact on the context and form of planning, wherever you are in the world. And we are likely to see greater polarisation in attitudes toward urban and regional change, some of which may not only be proactive, but deeply reactive, subjective and selective. If the narrative turn will become more prominent in planning, we need to be ready for the likely proliferation of disruptive and insurgent narratives that will emerge and reflect the deep-seated vested interests that possess stakes in how and whether places change on their terms.

关于城市变化和规划的叙述:谁的叙述,有多真实?
Lieven Ameel的书《城市规划中的叙事转向》对叙事和讲故事在未来城市变化的审议中有关城市规划问题中的作用进行了批判性的考察。讨论提供了一种很好的方式来识别、定义和构建我们对规划中的叙事的理解,包括第一次构建类型学。但是,规划的叙述和规划的叙述往往掩盖了更广泛的元叙述问题,这些问题将影响未来如何塑造和改变地方。这些变化的驱动因素不仅包括一系列社会经济和环境挑战。它们还将对我们对技术的使用以及我们的民主进程的运作方式产生深远的影响。无论你身在何处,这种戏剧性的变化都会影响规划的背景和形式。我们可能会看到对城市和地区变化的态度出现更大的两极分化,其中一些变化可能不仅是主动的,而且是深度被动的、主观的和选择性的。如果叙事转向在规划中变得更加突出,我们需要为可能出现的破坏性和反叛叙事的扩散做好准备,这些叙事将会出现,并反映出根深蒂固的既得利益集团,这些既得利益集团对地方如何以及是否按照自己的条件变化有着利害关系。
