Abstract
This thesis deals with the role cultural planning plays in sustainable development and resilience building within complex and globalizing contexts. Cross comparisons of three vineyards in South Africa, France and the Netherlands were conducted to explore to what extent culture, as a central theme to sustainable planning practice, is a relevant and necessary mechanism to enable and direct planning goals to be more adaptable and resilient to social and environmental change. This outlook aims to integrate culture into concepts of sustainable planning and to ensure better resilience through culturally tailored plans. By focusing on incorporating culture into planning practice, the concept of resilience building through place-shaping can better be tailored toward preparedness to the complexities in planning development. This will therefore tap into cultural capital as an intrinsic preparation factor for planners when dealing with change, adversity and unpredictability in global environments.
