Planning allows us to coordinate our actions over time, and the ability to plan is crucial in many areas of our lives. I argue that while planning is deeply embedded in contemporary societies, not all individuals have equal access to the structures that support such planning. This article explores how external planning-support structures are essential to our capacity to plan and how inequality in access to these structures can impact an individual's ability to deliberate and pursue long-term plans. I conclude by suggesting that we need to think more deeply about unequal access to the structures that support planning directly, not just inequality in resources.

规划能力不平等

规划使我们能够随着时间的推移协调我们的行动，规划能力在我们生活的许多领域都至关重要。我认为，虽然规划深深植根于当代社会，但并非所有个人都有平等的机会进入支持此类规划的结构。本文探讨了外部规划支持结构如何对我们的规划能力至关重要，以及获得这些结构的不平等如何影响个人审议和追求长期计划的能力。最后，我建议我们需要更深入地思考直接支持规划的结构的不平等，而不仅仅是资源的不平等。
