    Abstract

    A research agenda for the ‘undisciplined’ field of Landscape Studies of Planning cannot be set by merely accumulating calls from the individual contributions. There is also a need for conversations across disciplines and research conventions. This final chapter, therefore, presents a dialogue among 11 of the authors, structured into three themes: one focusing more broadly on the future of the field, one discussing how the field can ‘step up’ to make compelling contributions to planning, and one that contemplates the balancing act of continuing an open dialogue across research norms and conventions. The lively discussion in the chapter mirrors the richness of the field, and it offers promising pathways for the future of Landscape Studies of Planning.
