Gender planning is not an end in itself but a means by which women, through a process of empowerment, can emancipate themselves. Ultimately, its success depends on the capacity of women's organizations to confront subordination and create successful alliances which will provide constructive support in negotiating women's needs at the level of household, civil society, the state and the global system. Gender Planning and Development provides an introduction to an issue of primary importance and constant debate. It will be essential reading for academics, practitioners, undergraduates and trainees in anthropology, development studies, women's studies and social policy.

Download Gender, Planning and Human Rights Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Challenging the traditional treatment of human rights cast in purely legal frameworks, the authors argue that, in order to promote the notion of human rights, its geographies and spatialities must be investigated and be made explicit. A wealth of case studies examine the significance of these components in various countries with multi-cultured societies, and identify ways to integrate human rights issues in planning, development and policy making. The book uses case studies from UK, Israel, Canada, Singapore, USA, Peru, European Union, Australia and the Czech Republic.

To document and analyze the connection between gender and planning, the editors of this volume have assembled an interdisciplinary collection of influential essays by leading scholars. Contributors point to the ubiquitous single-family home, which prevents women from sharing tasks or pooling services. Similarly, they argue that public transportation routes are usually designed for the (male) worker's commute from home to the central city, and do not help the suburban dweller running errands. In addition to these practical considerations, many contributors offer theoretical perspectives on issues such as planning discourse and the construction of concepts of rationality.

Planning has a central essential legitimacy in addressing social goals. Despite the ideal position of planning is being able to initiate, encourage & strengthen the links between the theory & practice of feminism in its relationship with gender,planning can act against women's interests & thus reinforce the unequal distribution of powers between the sexes, not only within the planning discipline but also in the assumptions & practice in our use of the built environment. This book provides a feminist interpretation of contemporary urban planning. It outlines the gender inequalities which characterize many areas of mainstream planning as well as the assumptions & practices surrounding our use of the built environment. The book incorporates detailed theoretical discussion on the underlying basis & form of women's subordination & applies this discussion to the development & implementation of planning policies. Attention focuses on both the establishment & operation of formal 'women's initiatives' within local government & on the promotion of specific policies aimed at meeitng women's needs within key areas of planning. - Habitat International, December 1994
