Who's afraid of Urban Planning/Design?

So. I get jaundiced-faced sneers whenever I mention that although I love design I also find the introduction of law, international relations, and history into my design gestalt very seductive.

What if I want to work for the UN, helping emerging cities NOT destroy their culture, or something like that, for instance.

Why is everyone so down on UP/D? I'm not trained in architecture (yet), so I'd like to hear some opinions.

thanka.

you really need to consult your dog on this issue.

Vado Futuro:

I almost made the switch to a French Bulldog, instead of a Boston Terrier. But then I found out that French Bulldogs are OBSCENELY stupid. And I can't have a stupid dog if I'm going to consult it about important issues such as this.

Plus, it's much harder to come up with clever puns for dog names based on the names of French architects. I'm drawing a blank trying to think of dog-puns for Nouvel or de Portzamparc.
