PLURALISM  in planning : It is in the context of-the society. A pluralist society is where there are

different sectors. The dividers being religion, economic status, social ideologies and the way of life. The economic status of two persons may 
be the same but the expenditure patterns may be totally different. Pluralism is the character of modern society and every modern society is in 
state of flux. Modern society differs from the older society by the level of tolerance. Thus anything and everything becomes intolerable and thus changeable within a very short period of time

Importance of Advocacy in Pluralism

Planners should engage in the political process as advocates of the interests of government and other groups. Intelligent choice about public policy would be aided if different political, social, and economic interests produced city plans. Plural plans rather than a single agency plan should be presented to the public. Politicizing the planning process requires that the planning function be located in either or both the executive and legislative branches and the scope of planning be broadened to include all areas of interest to the public.
