Abstract
There is a change from the traditional “residents' participation” to the “citizen participation”. As society changes, this is an opportunity to take a fresh look at how we have been promoting urban design and management, and to rethink the nature of “planning” and “participation” itself. This study examined the relationship between “planning” and “participation” in Nagakute City over a period of more than 10 years, and clarified how “planning” and “participation” have been made into policies, institutionalized, and structured. The study also clarified how “planning” and “participation” are positioned through reframing the concept of “planning” and “participation”. The study also manifested a future direction.
