Over the past 20 years the economic analysis of land use planning has used positive economics to examine the unintended effects of planning and the way economic forces have affected planning. Public choice theory also plays a part in indicating the way planning has developed as the result of political pressures. The impact of planning is now so great that a full development is much needed.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book sets out the economic justification for land use planning as well as describing methods of assessing planning proposals and controls.
