Abstract

This paper investigates the coevolution between the development of British constitutional rights and the status of social and minority groups in planning London since its first post-WWII comprehensive plan. The study employed a historical document analysis by scrutinizing major London urban plans, pertinent British legislation, and constitutional rights enactments to uncover the evolution of urban planning amid a changing rights-based constitutional landscape. The study concludes that the status of social and minority groups within London’s urban planning is not solely a product of planning approaches but is significantly shaped by the prevailing political and constitutional frameworks regarding minority rights.
