在1975年关于规划和福利国家的文章中,马尔科姆·哈里森(Malcolm Harrison)将“特定的社会福利”确定为二战后英国城乡规划的“可能的福利目标”。其中一些社会福利,如娱乐需要和享有休闲设施的权利,成为政府政策和国家赞助的规划项目的关键目标。人们越来越重视休闲和娱乐作为“提高生活质量”的一部分,而且流动性和富裕程度不断提高,这也导致农村娱乐机会以及进入和保护农村的机会越来越重要。通过一系列的案例研究,本文探讨了这些福利目标是如何实现的设计景观周围的燃煤发电站在英国,委托国有化的中央发电局在1957年和1970年之间。它将分析对工人福利和环境意识的法定责任如何导致景观设计专业的参与,以及这如何帮助董事会履行其保护乡村的职责以及保障社区的需求。
In his 1975 article about planning and the Welfare State, Malcolm Harrison identified ‘specific social benefits’ as ‘possible welfare objectives’ of town and country planning in post-WW2 Britain. Some of these social benefits, such as the need for recreation, and the right to leisure facilities became key goals of Government policy and State-sponsored planning projects. Growing emphasis on leisure and recreation as part of an ‘improved quality of life’ and the increasing mobility and affluence also led to growing importance of opportunities for rural recreation and access to and preservation of the countryside. Through a series of case studies, this paper examines how these welfare objectives were materialized in the designed landscapes created around coal-fired power stations in Britain, commissioned by the nationalized Central Electricity Generating Board between 1957 and 1970. It will analyse how statutory duties towards workers’ welfare and environmental consciousness resulted in the involvement of the profession of landscape architecture, and how this helped the Board to navigate its duty to preserve the countryside as well as safeguarding the needs of communities.
