ABSTRACT

This study examines theories of community participation in urban regeneration and their application in the UK urban regeneration policy. It is generally assumed that community participation is a ‘good thing’, and with greater participation of community, we can resolve many problems that have occurred under the conventional style of urban redevelopment process. However, we have not yet seriously and critically examined the assumptions: its theoretical grounds and its effectiveness. As a first step of the critical examination of the assumptions, this study explores the backgrounds of the attention to the concept of the community in contemporary urban regeneration, the grounds for the public participation in planning process, and their applications in the UK urban regeneration policy. Subsequently, this study draws out implications for the current urban regeneration policies in Korea, in particular with regard to community participation.
