公众参与城市规划——环境邻避冲突化解路径

环境邻避冲突的实质在于环境保护领域公民知情权和表达权的运用与行使,需通过法律形式予以和平合理化解。城市规划作为环境邻避设施选址或建设决策的法律形式具有合法性与正当性。公众参与城市规划应以提升规划决策理性为目标,通过塑造专家、大众与政府的法律形象以增进各主体间的信任与理解,最终达成最优城市规划方案,因而成为化解环境邻避冲突的制度路径。

The Resolution of Environmental NIMBY Conflicts: Public Participation in Urban Planning

The essence of environmental NIMBY conflicts lies in whether common people have the right to be informed and to express their opinions on environmental protection, and these conflicts need to be resolved reasonably and peacefully through legal ways. As a legal way of siting or construction of environmental NIMBY facilities, urban planning has the legality and legitimacy. Public participation in urban planning should target the improvement of rationality of planning decisions, promote the trust and understanding between the various subjects by molding legal images of experts, public and government and finally reach the optimal urban planning in order to become an institutional path to resolve environmental NIMBY conflicts.
