Description
The course will introduce students to the legal regime for planning in NSW as well as other areas of law relevant to the built environment such as heritage, environmental and property law. Drawing insights from national and international experience, particularly in the United States, students will critically examine the contribution of these legal regimes to justice in Sydney.
This course will be useful for students with interests in: environmental, property and real estate law, urban development and public policy. Cities are a fascinating topic for study, and the course will develop a critical understanding of intersections between law and fields such as urban studies, geography, economics, public health and social policy.
