Title: The Theory and Practice of Equity Planning: An Annotated Bibliography
Source: Journal of planning literature [0885-4122] Metzger yr:1996 vol:11 iss:1 pg:112
abstract- Equity planning is a framework in which urban planners working within government use their research, analytical, and organizing skills to influence opinion, mobilize underrepresented constituencies, and advance and perhaps implement policies and programs that redistribute public and private resources to the poor and working class. This approach divergesfrom the downtown-oriented land-use planning tradition of most U.S. cities. The bibliography compiles literature that describes some of the theoretical and political debate about planning for social equity goals. It is also a resource that informs and guides planners, public administrators, urban policy analysts, and community leaders regarding some of the actual experiences of equity planning over the past twentyfive years.
