The research discussed in this paper delves into the complex processes of territorialisation and deterritorialisation in urban development planning, focusing specifically on the Tehran University Development Plan. The study employs a robust methodology that includes 66 interviews with a wide array of stakeholders. It identifies and examines five core concepts that reveal the impact of the development plan: local resistance, academic discourse, power structures, mechanisms of urbanisation and dispossession. By analysing these concepts, the research uncovers how centralised narratives and political agendas affect the spatial relations. The study exposes the contentious nature of urban planning, demonstrating how planning processes can intensify spatial inequalities and marginalise local populations.
