    Realizing old and new agendas: The challenge within
    (Canadian Institute of Planners, 1991-11) Mathur, Brijesh
    As we contemplate the emerging futures for planning, it is as important to identify future challenges as it is to look back on our past performance to assess our preparedness for meeting the challenges which lie before us.

    Canadian community planning 100 years on: Where next?
    (Canadian Institute of Planners, 1991-11) Hodge, Gerald
    As community planning in Canada enters its second century, many past challenges (e.g., affordable housing, citizen participation and environmental pollution) still await resolution. New challenges through the aging of the population and its growing multicultural complexity are emerging that will also test planners' will and skills. Whether planning practice is sufficient to meet these challenges will depend upon planners (a) opening up the present bureaucratic process; (b) sharing power with citizen participants; (c) taking a stand on underlying moral questions; and (d) being able to serve legitimately other constituencies than the land development sector.

    Feminist critiques of planning for work: Considerations for future planning
    (Canadian Institute of Planners, 1991-11) Milroy, Beth Moore
    Social values surrounding work become manifested in the urban environment in numerous ways. Planners contribute to this in their capacity as implementers of political decisions. Conventional ways of thinking about work are being challenged from many quarters because of new technology, economic re-structuring, environmental concerns, and women's labour force participation. This paper is an account of challenges to notions of work originating in feminist research These deal with definitions of work, equal access to work for women and men, and the ordering of values related to productive and non-productive activities. The implications of these claims for planning theories and practices are proposed.
