Relevant planning education must take into account that we live in one world comprised of rich and poor nations who are now faced with a common crisis of economy and of ideas. The central purpose of con temporary planning education should be to sensitize students to the global dimension of this crisis and to build a consensus of ideas about ways of transcending it. This re quires that North American and in ternational students be brought to gether to learn to "think globally" and yet "act locally" in searching for solutions to the crisis. Such a joint search requires an intellectual envi ronment of mutual learning; and that, in turn, requires a change in the ethnocentric and tempocentric biases of North American planning academia.
