Background: Postmodernists adopt a critical approach to power and legitimacy by challenging the idealistic normative criteria of rationality and democracy as the basis of planning decision justification in an era where power is all-pervasive.
Objectives: Based on Foucault's genealogy, the paper proposes a conceptual framework for studying the influence of power strategies on legitimacy conflicts, by showing how actors in real decision-making situations use strategies and counter-strategies to control the conduct of others. As a result of the strategic game, the procedures of Normalization construct subjugated subjects who decide upon power claims and counter-claims of legitimacy.
Method: The analysis in this article focuses on power strategies for legitimization and de-legitimization of the Revision of Samen District's Urban Renewal Plan (2014-2020). The data originated from 10 narrative in-depth interviews, 212 official documents, and 563 unofficial documents.
Result: The genealogy of the Revision of Samen District's Urban Renewal Plan demonstrates the active roles of actors in the conflict over the legitimization and de-legitimization of the fundamental revision of the plan. Strategies and counterstrategies to control and win the conflict over the revision justification shift the formal planning struggle to an informal juridical one with their process, actors, criteria, and characteristics. In consequence, most parts of the main structure of the plan remain unchanged in the revised plan despite the initial official decision.
Conclusion: This study demonstrates that power struggles in strategic games intentionally create context-based ongoing conflicts over the legitimacy of decisions. In these conflicts, power is exercised through two different strategies: First, strategies to challenge the legitimacy of the decisions, decision-makers, the procedure of decision-making, norms of decision-making, and decision consequences. Applying these strategies leads to creating conflicts on legitimacy. Second, strategies to manage legitimacy conflicts. By using these strategies, power mainly gains and maintains control over struggles. The strategic game of power in planning practice constructs subjugated subjects who are obedient to the new normalization of the decisions, decision-makers, the procedure of decision-making, norms of decision-making, and decision consequences.
