Description

Abstract Planning has not kept up with the changing demographic and political character of cities. Leading scholars as well as practitioners point out that this lag is most starkly evident with respect to the rapidly increasing ethno-cultural diversity and attendant political questions of 'global cities.' This paper sketches a specifically Canadian perspective on this problem, by examining current practices intended to enhance diversity in Ontario planning programs in the context of Canadian multiculturalism policy. With particular reference to feminist theories of difference, this analysis of actually existing pedagogical practices then suggests a framework for critical self-reflection and institutional reform within planning education. In so doing the paper also offers some reflections on the political role planning education can play in preparing planners to engage effectively with the social and cultural diversity in our cities.
