Paul Davidoff (February 14, 1930 – December 27, 1984) was an American planner, planning educator, and planning theoretician who conceptualized "advocacy planning" with his wife, Linda Stone Davidoff. ==Life and career== Davidoff was born in New York City on February 14, 1930 to Bernard and Mildred Davidoff. He completed an undergraduate degree at Allegheny College and started but did not complete a law degree at Yale Law School before enrolling at the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Fine Arts, where he graduated with a degree in city planning in 1956. While teaching there, he also received a law degree from the university in 1961. He and Linda Stone met in the 1960s while she was a planning student at Penn and were married. Over his career he held positions with planning agencies and in academia in around New York City. He worked for several years as a planner in New Canaan, CT, and later for the prestigious architectural firm of Voorhees, Walker Smith & Smith. In 1964 he founded the department of urban studies at Hunter College in New York.〔 Davidoff founded the Suburban Action Institute in 1969. It challenged exclusionary zoning in the courts, winning a notable success in the landmark Mt. Laurel case (''South Burlington County NAACP v. Mount Laurel Township, 92 N.J., 158''). This litigation led to the requirement by the New Jersey Supreme Court (1983) that communities supply their “regional fair share” of low-income housing needs, known as the "Mt. Laurel Doctrine." Davidoff died in New York City from complications related to cancer treatment on December 27, 1984.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paul Davidoff」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
