Abstract

Predicated on the theoretical foundations of Coasian and Schumpeterian economics, this analytical work adopts a broad view of planning as resource management. It involves the zoning of land or sea with an aim to contribute to sustainability by justifying a micro policy model of sustainable development, unambiguously defined as win-win development via technological and institutional innovations. The paper positions a micro model within the literature on the win-win approach to sustainable development, and clarifies the economic relationship between transaction cost reduction and sustainable development. The paper elucidates the relevance of planning policies to sustainable development through successful innovations in production, explains the general economic role of town planning as a matter of public policies that address boundary-specific and cross-boundary issues in promoting sustainable development, and presents some specific planning policies that reduce transaction costs and promote sustainable development. The prospect of planning for sustainable development is discussed.

可持续发展的创新规划：将消极外部性转化为积极外部性的双赢途径

以科斯和熊彼特经济学的理论基础为基础，本分析工作采用了规划作为资源管理的广泛观点。它涉及陆地或海洋的分区，目的是通过证明可持续发展的微观政策模式的合理性来促进可持续性，明确定义为通过技术和制度创新实现双赢发展。本文在可持续发展共赢路径的文献中定位了一个微观模型，阐明了降低交易成本与可持续发展之间的经济关系。本文通过成功的生产创新阐明了规划政策与可持续发展的相关性，解释了城市规划作为一项公共政策的一般经济作用，该公共政策解决了促进可持续发展的特定边界和跨边界问题，并提出了一些降低交易成本和促进可持续发展的具体规划政策。讨论了可持续发展规划的前景。
