For the last four decades, policymakers have increasingly adopted regimes of exception to deliver large-scale urban projects. They do this, by means of urban partnerships to which they apply extraordinary measures that create alternative sets of procedural rules and structures for project delivery. While scholars have extensively studied several aspects of urban partnerships, the nature and implications of using these extraordinary measures remains understudied.

520 $a For the last four decades, policymakers have increasingly adopted regimes of exception to deliver large-scale urban projects. They do this, by means of urban partnerships to which they apply extraordinary measures that create alternative sets of procedural rules and structures for project delivery. While scholars have extensively studied several aspects of urban partnerships, the nature and implications of using these extraordinary measures remains understudied.
520 $a In this dissertation, I seek to contribute to urban governance debates by offering the concept of regime of exception as a heuristic device to examine the implications of how policymakers frame alternative arrangements to existing urban planning and governance systems for particular projects, instead of seeking to directly reform them. I develop this concept from a reinterpretation of literature on the 'exception' and by using new sociological institutionalism to examine the institutional changes promoted by these alternative arrangements.
520 $a Specifically, I examined the framing, operation and implications of the Polis Program, which operated in Portugal as a regime of exception under the purview of the Ministry of Environment. Using an interpretive approach, I studied the formation and implementation of the Polis Program at the national level and case studies of the program implementation in the cities of Costa da Caparica and Viana do Castelo, where the Program faced considerable conflict.
520 $a Research findings suggest that, in narrowly framing the Polis regime of exception to focus on administrative efficiency of project delivery, policymakers neglected how conflict is endemic to urban planning and governance, especially when involving large-scale urban projects. Consequently, instances of political, inter-agency, and social conflict emerged as participating actors---from public agencies to citizens---used the areas left unregulated by the Polis regime of exception to circumvent the Program's implementation. Participating agents did so by undermining the leadership and commitment to the Program, by challenging the reallocation of authority it entailed, or by advancing alternative visions to the projects proposed. Overall, research findings suggest that examining alternative arrangements through the conceptual lens of regimes of exception provides insights into why they arise, what purposes they serve and the implications to policy delivery of how they are framed.
