Commentary Rothschild in Australia? The Organisation of R & D in the United Kingdom
The Rothschild scheme was introduced in the UK in 1972 and there have been recent calls for a similar approach from Australian government departments. However, numerous reviews and reports on the scheme have shown it to be largely ineffective, inefficient, inflexible and unbalanced. Consequently, it has failed to produce a coherent national research program. A database scan of the literature confirms these conclusions. Some dismantling of the sch…
Technological Change and Urban Form
In this paper the author previews a current international study of impacts of technological change on urban activities and interactions, and hence on urban built form. He considers various trends and factors of technological change, and the mechanisms through which they are influencing urban form. The nature of this impact is also discussed. The author introduces two basic measures of urban form and interaction, and maps urban activities and inte…
Some Supply and Demand Considerations in Urban Spatial Interaction Models
Although attempts have been made recently to include supply considerations in urban spatial interaction models, these efforts have not been comprehensive. In this paper, demand-type models are first examined. Then it is demonstrated how spatial consumption patterns can be determined when potential supply exceeds actual demand or vice versa. In addition, supply and demand imbalances are treated simultaneously. Last, a model for handling steady sta…
The Individual, the Community, and the Authority in the Planning Process
This paper discusses a rational basis for urban decisionmaking including the role of individual freedom of choice. It identifies the differing objectives of the various parties involved (the individual, the community, and the authority) and the resulting different choices of those parties. If the problem is specified in such a way that the authority is indifferent to the options offered, the objectives of the remaining parties, the individuals an…
