The Metropolitan dimension of spatial policy – the case of the Poznan Agglomeration

Łukasz Mikuła

Abstract

One of the key challenges of spatial policy in developed countries is the problem of integrated planning in highly urbanized areas. Problems related to the lack of coordination of local spatial policies are particularly important in areas of dynamic suburbanization and housing development, such as the Poznan agglomeration. In Poland, however, there are no appropriate legal mechanisms that allow for proper integration of planning at the metropolitan level. In this situation the only way to overcome the problems of planning is the voluntary cooperation of local governments. In the Poznan agglomeration one can observe only its origins, however, studies conducted by researchers and planners indicate a clear need for continuation and strengthening of this process.
