Keywords: Spatial Planning; Holism; Metropolitan Area Planning; Systematic Coordination; San Francisco Bay Area

Abstract:

This paper responses to the confusion of ‘invalid all-inclusive’ in metropolitan area planning from the perspective of systematic coordination. It firstly expounds the difficulties of metropolitan area planning based on the theory of Holism. It then reveals the Holist transformation implied in San Francisco Bay Area planning process, and follows with a specific introduction of “Plan Bay Area 2040: Strategy for a Sustainable Region”, which is a holistic explanation and application. Eventually it concludes the enlightenment of San Francisco Bay Area planning and holistic thinking for Chinese metropolitan area planning from three levels: epistemology, content and methodology. The core of systematic coordination is the optimization of the‘whole’, which emphasis simultaneous changes among the core ingredients of metropolitan area. Inescapably, its planning should derive from comparison and selection of exhaustive conjecture of scenarios with synchronic thinking instead of partial, linear thinking, so as to notice the optimal scenario with overall goal and precise practical action.
