ABSTRACT

Barriers to an inclusive planning process include institutional context shaped by organizational structures, interactions between professionals outside of their disciplines, and practices. We seek to understand the extent planners and modelers privilege certain types of data and knowledge in practice. The article presents a US case study of Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, drawing from analyses of planning documents, interviews with transportation planners, modelers, and residents. We focus on the privileges given to knowledge derived from transport prediction models within an existing institutional context – over more grounded and specific experiential knowledge. We find that breaking down institutional barriers, specifically those tied to legitimacy, is a precursor to inclusion. Furthermore, tools and techniques selected in the planning process are as equally important as the participants invited to the table.

摘要

包容性计划过程的障碍包括受组织结构，学科之外的专业人员之间的互动以及实践影响的制度环境。我们试图了解规划人员和建模人员在实践中对某些类型的数据和知识享有特权的程度。本文通过对规划文件的分析，对交通规划师，建模师和居民的访谈，介绍了德克萨斯州达拉斯-沃思堡的美国案例研究。我们将重点放在现有机构环境中从交通预测模型得出的知识的特权上，而不是更扎实，更具体的经验知识。我们发现，打破体制障碍，特别是与合法性相关的障碍，是包容性的先兆。此外，
