Smart Methods for Environmental Externalities: Urban Planning, Environmental Health and Hygiene in the Netherlands

By Jelger Visser and Gert De Roo

Book Overview

This book discusses the innovative research instruments developed and employed in the Netherlands, examining their strengths and weaknesses and comparing them with classic environmental planning policy methods. It argues that having a wide and varied range of methods available to local communities from which they themselves can choose is key to the Dutch creativity and success in sustainable spatial planning policy. It suggests best future practice and shows how these new methods can contribute in our on-going attempts to develop and deliver liveable, pleasant and sustainable towns and cities.
