Regional design, long a backbone for spatial planning, even if under other names, has become topical again for two reasons – as a key strategy and as a key tool in spatial management. This is due to several reasons. New conditions of urbanization that result from the convergence of several factors highlight the need for spatial strategy...

The purpose of this paper is to take up a call for more “identity” research in construction management by exploring the potential of position theory as a framework for examining the ongoing construction of self through discourse. Using some basic constructs: storyline, speech-act and position, we examine how tensions and contradictions unfold in...
