Crisis
Together with Reinier de Graaf and Jelte Boeijenga, Matthijs Bouw has published an article titled “Project NL” in the latest issue of S+RO (Stedenbouw + Ruimtelijke Ordening). The article deals with the issue of spatial planning in the Netherlands in the post-crisis era.
Quote: “Het stilvallen van de bouw toont aan dat ‘de markt’ geen oplossingen biedt voor ruimtelijke vraagstukken. De introductie van deze ‘markt’ heeft de afgelopen decennia geen ruimte geschapen voor ondernemerschap en het nemen van risico’s. Daardoor zijn risico’s vooral politieke vraagstukken geworden. Is het dan nu de beurt aan de staat om de ruimtelijke ontwikkeling te sturen?”
This article was published before in S+RO 1/2011.
