Abstract

The idea of urban and regional planning is concentrated on the future city planning of the local government. The idea is derived from the global political and economic paradigm. As for Thailand, this paradigm changes from time to time. Sometimes it moves toward global trends. At the other time, it was confined to the national political and economic system. Significantly, its development moves with political decentralization that diffuses political power towards local administration. Besides the duty of public services, the urban planning process is the local government's key responsibility, which can be divided into two approaches: negative planning and positive planning. The former focuses on control according to the rules and regulations and permission of certain certificates based on the local instructions, while the latter concentrates on the leading role of local government in developing the region through public and private investment. Though the local government has authority in planning and implementation, decentralization in the Thai context is not complete yet. As a result, planning and decision on various issues are based on the central government's rules and regulations under the national structure of politics. Thus, this paper aims to review the idea and paradigm of urban planning in order to provide future planning for local government.
