Overview

Research on Spatial Planning at Blekinge Institute of Technology is a multidisciplinary activity. As spatial planning is part of society’s governance system, research on planning in the broad sense is conducted within a variety of subjects, such as architecture, sociology, political science, human geography, environmental science, ethnology, and more.

Main research fields:

Research on planning as a control system - explores how planning works and the different control mechanisms (ideologies, legislation, professional norms, technologies) that affect spatial development
Research on the built environment - explores how different perceptions of space affect planning in practice and thus the form and design
