This paper analyzes the history of this usage of location efficiency and how it evolved into divergent constructs; it then defines three concepts distinguished by scale—household, neighborhood, and municipal location efficiency. These related yet distinct concepts provide clarity use of the term in existing literature and provide a conceptual framework for those looking to employ the concept of location efficiency at every level of research and analysis in academia, applied planning, and municipal policy.","PeriodicalId":16793,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Planning Education and Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41498016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We apply each approach to Boston’s network of plans to understand how the city’s plans together address current and future flooding. We find relatively strong integration of plans in Boston.

Fainstein","doi":"10.1177/0739456x221081477","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/0739456x221081477","url":null,"abstract":"This essay is the twenty-fourth in a series on the recipients of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Planning (ACSP) Distinguished Educator Award, ACSP’s highest honor. The essays appear in the order the honorees received the award. Peter Marcuse arrived in the United States at the age of five in 1933, having fled Nazi Germany with his parents, Herbert Marcuse and Sophie Wertheim. His father, the eminent social philosopher, was a major figure in the Frankfurt Institute of Social Research, and his mother was a mathematician. After graduating from Harvard College and Yale Law School, Peter took a somewhat circuitous route to becoming a professor of urban planning. His interest in politics, undoubtedly influenced by his family’s values, led him initially to the law, which he regarded as a useful path to political influence. For twenty years as a practicing attorney, he worked for labor unions and non-profit housing corporations, along with advocating on behalf of civil-rights litigants. Involvement in planning issues as an alderman and city planning commission member in Waterbury, CT generated his desire for formal training in the discipline. He received a PhD in planning at Berkeley in 1972, having earlier acquired master’s degrees at Columbia and Yale in urban studies. His first faculty position was in the UCLA planning department; while in Los Angeles, he became a member, then president, of the city’s planning commission. In 1975, he returned east to assume the directorship of Columbia’s planning program. Consistent throughout Peter’s career as scholar, teacher, and practitioner has been his commitment to social justice. This aspiration took on various forms as he combined political activities, legal skills, technical knowledge, and aspirations for radical change in his writings and actions. In an autobiographical book chapter, he describes a turning point in his career when, in 1975, upon reading the early works of David Harvey and Manuel Castells, he identified “the outlines . . . of what a radical, transformative, verging on the utopian, set of guiding principles for good planning might look like” (Marcuse 2017, 38). At Columbia, Peter continued to operate on three tracks: the political, the technical, and the theoretical. He kept up his activist role by participating in numerous governmental and non-profit organizations, including the Upper-West Side Manhattan Community Board and the American Civil Liberties Union board of directors. Using his technical expertise, he led a major study in 1978 of housing conditions in New York City. The study, required every three years by the state’s rent control law, embodied extensive statistical calculations of vacancy rates, rent burdens, owner occupancy, and so on. Peter refused to provide only a technical report but used it as a vehicle for demonstrating the inequitable outcomes of the city’s housing market. Work addressing urban segregation resulted in numerous pieces in both German and English on","PeriodicalId":16793,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Planning Education and Research","volume":"42 1","pages":"244 - 246"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47717624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, despite the vast body of theoretical and normative frameworks for discerning the effects of space, the current practices of opportunity mapping do not provide grounded assessments of differences that disproportionately affect the poor and racial minorities. We analyze seventeen opportunity assessments from the last twenty years and find issues of construct validity, implicit racial bias, and limited interpretability of outputs. More importantly, symptomatic outcomes of historical marginalization are conflated with problems of material access in poor and minority neighborhoods.","PeriodicalId":16793,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Planning Education and Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2022-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45391786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
