There has been a growing recognition that planning ideas emerging from the industrialised economies of the `Global North¿ are not necessarily appropriate in regions of the world with very different social, political and economic contexts. This books seeks to respond to this set of challenges by showcasing the planning ideas from, and of, the parts of the world usually at the margins of planning knowledge production. It does so to begin to build an epistemic project in thinking from "here" which gives us new concepts, emphases or approaches that emerge from cities and urban regions. It does so in close conversation with actually existing practices of institutional and professional planning.
