本文探讨了政策制定者在多大程度上了解发展行业的结构、开发商的感知特征以及这些行为者在多大程度上可以被视为政策响应者。如果对这些问题缺乏了解，规划政策的有效性可能会被削弱，特别是在私营部门负责进行大部分发展的情况下。本文基于1999年至2007年期间苏格兰行政长官对开发商的看法和政策立场的实证研究。调查发现，执行人员似乎对推动开发过程或激励个别开发人员的因素了解有限，而且似乎不熟悉行业内在部门和地理上的重要差异。相反，“名义上的房地产开发商”被错误地认为是一个对国家有着共同目标的可塑性和潜在合规的合作伙伴。白皮书呼吁更深入地了解发展中的产业，以此作为有效制定城市政策的前提。
This paper explores how far policy-makers understand the structure of the development industry, the perceived characteristics of developers and the extent to which such actors can be considered policy-responsive. If these matters are poorly understood, the effectiveness of planning policy may be undermined, especially where the private sector is responsible for undertaking most development. The paper is based upon empirical research on the Scottish Executive’s perceptions of, and policy stances towards developers between 1999 and 2007. It finds that the Executive appeared to have only limited understanding of what drives the development process or motivates individual developers and seemed unfamiliar with important differences within the industry, sectorally and geographically. Instead, ‘the notional property developer’ was incorrectly conceived as a malleable and potentially compliant partner with shared objectives to the State. The paper calls for a more thorough understanding of the development industry as a prerequisite to effective urban policy-making.
