    • Introduction: *** Discussant: ***

Our meetings will be guided by the following questions:

  • What does the text say?
  • Who is the author, what is the context?
  • Why is the text relevant for land policy and spatial planning?
  • Which parts of the text are plausible, which parts are difficult to understand?

Each meeting will start with an introduction and a response from a discussant.

We are now looking for volunteers, who wish to fill the ***-slots!
