This symposium is the most recent in a series of activities by the guest editors, aimed at advancing planning scholarship under the rubric of progressive regionalism. Progressive regionalism is concerned with equity and sustainability in the search for innovative ways to improve urban and regional development - that is, with solutions that are networked, systems-oriented, globally-minded, ecologically sound and holistic. The strengths and weaknesses of progressive regionalism merit careful analysis and debate. The authors in this symposium address aspects of the question: Does progressive regionalism cohere as an actionable framework for critical planning theory and practice?
