Abstract

Planning reforms in NSW Australia have resulted in weakening of community engagement. Independent scholars have used rational, collaborative and neoliberal planning theory to explain the reforms. However, theoretical underpinnings of effective community action by the affluent in the East and resignation to fate by the poor in West in Sydney metropolitan have not been explored.
