<strong>Planning</strong> Practice<br />
and Research<br />
ALEX WANDL AND DOMINIC STEAD<br />
<strong>Planning</strong> Practice & Research<br />
(PPR) was established more<br />
than 30 years ago and is<br />
published <strong>by</strong> Taylor & Francis. The<br />
editorial team is based in the Department<br />
of Urbanism, <strong>Delft</strong> University of<br />
Technology.<br />
PPR has become the source for<br />
inform<strong>at</strong>ion on current research in<br />
planning practice. Its main audience<br />
is reflective, critical academics,<br />
professionals, and students who<br />
are keen to keep abreast of recent<br />
developments and challenge current<br />
thinking. PPR provides an important<br />
resource base for practitioners, researchers,<br />
teachers, and students.<br />
The aims of PPR are:<br />
• to bridge the gaps between<br />
planning research, practice,<br />
and educ<strong>at</strong>ion, and between<br />
different planning systems<br />
• to provide a forum for an<br />
intern<strong>at</strong>ional readership to<br />
discuss and review research<br />
on planning practice<br />
• to offer a critical evalu<strong>at</strong>ion of<br />
practice and the progressive<br />
search for practical guidance<br />
• to present research in an<br />
accessible, succinct, analytical<br />
style, without being overly<br />
theoretical<br />
PPR regularly includes articles on<br />
planning systems around the world,<br />
recognising the need to address<br />
research on planning practice and<br />
educ<strong>at</strong>ion on an intern<strong>at</strong>ional and<br />
compar<strong>at</strong>ive basis. Over the coming<br />
years PPR will be encouraging<br />
submissions of articles exploring the<br />
distinctive fe<strong>at</strong>ures of planning practice<br />
and policy in different countries.<br />
As such, PPR will meet the demand<br />
for a transn<strong>at</strong>ional exchange of ideas<br />
on planning systems and practice.
