By: ELLIS, Geraint

Material type: 
ArticlePublisher: 2001Policy & Politics 29, 4, p. 393-411Abstract: The Good Friday Peace Agreement has attempted to establish a constitutional settlement in Northern Ireland by trying to address the long-term causes of conflict in the region. While it primarily deals with the region`s relationship to Britain and the Republic of Ireland, it also inludes measures that tackle social exclusion and discrimination in policy making. The article examines the impact of these on land use planning in the region, which has traditionally adopted a centralised, technocratic approach to policy making that denied the realities of sectarian division. The new policy agenda directly challenges this style of planning and has includes a number of initiatives that could partially open the planning system to public scutiny and force it to incorporate issues of social justice. This article describes the partical success in implementing these measures and makes an interim assessment of their potential impact and broader policy relevance
