Abstract

In contemporary cities, justice stands as a paramount concern, integral to their fabric and functionality. Just urban land use planning (JULUP) is one of the main topics in urban land use planning and tries to promote justice in cities through land use planning principles. Despite the abundance of JULUP studies, there is still a lack of comprehensive research that can review JULUP principles in an integrated manner. This article aims to explore and describe the principles of JULUP and seeks to answer the question of what principles JULUP is defined by using a systematic review and qualitative content analysis method. Based on the review of 191 sources, the results show that principles of JULUP can be categorized into four major principles: Land rights management, social cohesion, accessibility and spatial health. This array of principles underscores that attaining justice in urban land use planning necessitates a comprehensive and integrated perspective.
