The authors review factors that act as constraints against successful intercultural fire management in the Gran Sabana, including conflicting perspectives on fire use within state agencies and in indigenous communities, and propose strategies for research and communicative planning to guide future efforts for more participatory and effective fire management.
Participation, communicative planning based upon the Habermasian principle of non distorted communication, have been important developments (Habermas 1984).
Communicative planning and agent-based modelling are two approaches facilitating such inclusion, but both have shortcomings.
This paper analyses the responsibilities of planning theorists, with emphasis on issues pertaining to communicative planning theory (CPT).
Recent criticism of CPT suggests that it may sometimes serve authorities in repressive ways (as can other planning theories), and thus not always fulfil communicative planning theorists' aim of empowering the citizenry.
It is concluded that the framework: 1) enables incorporating knowledge on urban climate adaptation and ecosystem services in a communicative urban planning process, 2) guides the selection of a coherent and effective package of blue-green adaptation measures.
Participatory, communicative and collaborative planning and design are the key disciplines during this kind of activity, along with more radical approaches, like equity planning or insurgent planning.
The algorithm firstly classifies the communicative intent, then plans the co-verbal cues and their form within the gesture unit, generates temporally synchronized co-verbal cues, and finally realizes them in the form of human-like co-verbal movements.
The communicative turn in spatial planning reflects the changes of local economies and society towards open, globally reaching relationships, and increasing concerns for local environments.
I characterize the plan as a "communicative policy act" and argue that the communicative content of that act (its policy focus) should be distinguished from the way in which that content is conveyed (its quality).
