    Planning, governance and rural futures in Australia and the USA: revisiting the case for rural regional planning
    in Journal of Environmental Planning and Management , Volume 58, Issue 9 ,  2015 ,  1601-1616
    Rural regions in post-industrial countries confront significant new challenges, particularly in relation to climate, biodiversity, unconventional resource development and energy. Yet at a time when the contours of these challenges are still being sketched, and preliminary, planned interventions undertaken, the practice of rural planning finds itself at a low ebb. We examine two ‘critical cases’, one each from Australia and the USA, to explore the issues and options for capacity of rural regional planning to surmount these new challenges. Our examination indicates the urgent need for a renewed discourse on rural regional planning.
