Description
Summary:The planning of Randstad Holland, from the 1950s in the Netherlands, shows to what extent the plan, as a pre-figuration of a territory, maintains with this same territory a relationship which is not only – or only in a last resort – a programme-based relationship. For the sake of communicating the plan more easily, it summons the shapes of a landscape which it proposes to amplify. But above all, as with anything produced by those in power, as soon as the plan is imposed it is criticised. Yet, far from preventing it from being implemented, such criticism provides the plan with the paradoxical means of its execution : by arguing in favour of their projects against the plan in force, the prime contractors contribute towards making it known and being given physical form. Reading the operational efficiency of a plan requires interpreting the effects it induces more than acknowledging the effects it produces. The hermeneutics of the landscape as a project then make it possible to conceptualise the conditions for such an interpretation of the landscape.
