Title: | | International Development Planning Review (IDPR) | Type: | | Electronic Journals | URL: | | http://www.liverpool-unipress.co.uk/html/publication.asp?idP... | Description: | | International Development Planning Review is a quarterly journal of urban and regional planning in the developing world. It is edited from the Departments of Civic Design and Geography in the University of Liverpool, and the Department of Geography at Royal Holloway, University of London, and is published in February, May, August and November.
IDPR occupies a unique position in the literature of development planning. A fully refereed journal established in 1979, IDPR has a wide international readership comprising academics, practitioners, policy makers and students. Although IDPR is centrally concerned with urban and regional planning in the developing world, editorial policy stresses the social, cultural, economic and political relationships which underlie and inform planning practice. The breadth of coverage of the journal reflects this desire for a multi-disciplinary approach to the problems confronting poor nations. Areas addressed by IDPR include:
* the use and development of resources and energy
* technical cooperation and planning policy
* shelter
* transport
* communications and other infrastructure
* planning techniques and methodology
* rural development
* demographic change
* planning and development education
* finance for development
Such themes are frequently discussed within the context of theories and ideologies of development. | ISSN: | | 1474-6743 | Access Type: | | IP Authentication | Publisher: | | Liverpool University Press | Subjects: | | |
