Written from the perspective of landscape architecture and intended for planners and related professionals engaged in the development and conservation of these landscapes, this book provides history, planning pedagogy and interdisciplinary framing for working alongside the often-opaque planning, design and implementation processes of large-scale infrastructure. It complicates simplistic notions of development and urbanization frequently reproduced in the Laos?China frontier region. Many of the projects and sites investigated in this book are recent ?firsts? in Laos: Laos?s first wildlife sanctuary for trafficked endangered species, its first botanical garden and its first planting plan for a community forest. Most often the agents and accomplices of neoliberal development, the planning and design professions, including landscape architecture, have little dialogue with either the mainstream natural sciences or critical social sciences that form the discourse of projects in Laos and comparable contexts. Covering diverse conceptions and issues of development, including cultural and scientific knowledge exchanges between Laos and China, nature tourism, connectivity and new town planning, this book also features nine planning proposals for Laos generated through this research initiative since the railway's groundbreaking in 2016. Each proposal promotes a wider "landscape approach" to development and deploys landscape architecture?s spatial and ecological acumen to synthesize critical development studies with the planner's capacity, if not naive predilection, to intervene on the ground. Ultimately, this book advocates the cautious engagement of the professionally oriented built-environment disciplines, such as regional planning, civil engineering and landscape architecture, with the landscapes of development institutions and environmental NGOs. 606 $aHuman geography$2bicssc 606 $aLandscape art & architecture$2bicssc 606 $aUrban & municipal planning$2bicssc 610 $acritical landscape planning 610 $atransdisciplinary design 610 $aBelt and Road Initiative 610 $alandscape ecology 610 $acritical cartography 610 $aChina-Laos Railway 610 $aGreater Mekong Subregion 610 $atransnational infrastructure 610 $adevelopment studies 610 $aGolden Triangle 610 $aOpen Access 615 7$aHuman geography 615 7$aLandscape art & architecture 615 7$aUrban & municipal planning 700 $aKelly$b Ashley Scott$01237230 701 $aLu$b Xiaoxuan$01217683 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910500588103321 996 $aCritical Landscape Planning During the Belt and Road Initiative$92872134 997 $aUNINA
