International Review of Administrative SciencesSummary: Three frameworks-New Public Management, Network Governance and Post-Democracy-are applied to identify and explain the direction of institutional travel in the field of land-use planning in England. These frameworks are used to assess the extent to which land-use planning has been centralized or decentralized over the last 20 years. The last Labour government (1997ﾖ2010) is contrasted with the Conservative-led Coalition government (2010ﾖ2015).
