The aim of the group is to contribute to the creation and maintenance of a network of lecturers and researchers, who are willing to explore and debate new developments influencing both planning theory and practice in the light of complexity, complexity thinking and complex systems.
After the previous workshops dedicated to explore the theory of complexity (Vienna, Reading, Cardiff, Mexico City, Cambridge), the relationships between complexity and planning (Stuttgart) the focus of the workshop in Milan was prevalently the one of methods and tools, which are able to support the treatment of complex systems in the field of planning.
