Encounters in Planning Thought creates an informed future perspective on the spatial planning field by looking at it through the eyes of those who have been at the coal face of planning's scholarly institutionalisation. The book provides a topical insight into why and how 16 distinguished planners, as they matured and built their planning ideas over the last half-century, have done what and when. It brings together contributions from leading planning scholars from Europe, America, and beyond. Through these intellectual autobiographical essays, readers gain new insights into classic planning thoughts, on which the education of thousands of contemporary spatial planning scholars, students and practitioners is and was based. There is no other publication that comes close to including such a wide array of personal information from quintessential voices in spatial planning.

Her current research focuses on the nature of borders (physical and invisible) and their impacts on space and people, cross-border interaction and cooperation as well as planning cultures, its diversity and origin. With her research she seeks to bridge the gap between planning theory and practice. Beatrix is active in the Association of European Schools of Planning and the Regional Studies Association, where she has been a member of the executive committees, as well as on the editorial boards of a wide range of journals.
