Queerying Planning: Challenging Heteronormative Assumptions and Reframing Planning Practice

By Petra L. Doan

This volume fills a gap in the literature on planning and the development of queer spaces. It highlights the resistance there has been within the planning profession to incorporate gay and lesbian concerns into the planning mainstream. Bringing together leading academic planners and geographers, it reflects on the ways in which issues germane to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community have been slowly integrated into the planning mainstream, as well as those topics on which there is more work to do.
