Popis: Municipalities across the globe require good planning instruments to address the need for medium- to long-term planning. In South Africa, the Integrated Development Plan (IDP) and the Spatial Development Framework (SDF) could be regarded as the two main instruments in the system of forward planning, as mandated by the national government. The system, however, is over two decades old and is not without its detractors and, as such, fresh reviews are warranted. In investigating the instruments, it is the purpose of this review article, as a first step, to identify, compare and analyse several terms or phrases used in global literature in connection with forward planning, in particular blueprint or master planning, comprehensive planning, integrated planning, strategic planning, strategic spatial planning, and community planning. Finally, the article explores the IDP and SDF against the insights gained from this process. Munisipalitiete regoor die wêreld benodig goeie beplanningsinstrumente ten einde die behoefte aan medium- en langtermynbeplanning aan te spreek. In Suid-Afrika kan die Geïntegreerde Ontwikkelingsplan (GOP) en die Ruimtelike ontwikkelingsraamwerk (ROR) as die twee primêre instrumente beskou word wat in die sisteem van vooruitbeplanning deur die nasionale regering voorgeskryf is. Die sisteem is egter meer as twee dekades oud en nie sonder kritici nie. Gevolglik is 'n vars oorsig geregverdig. As 'n eerste stap in die ondersoek van die instrumente is dit die doel van die oorsigartikel om 'n aantal terme uit die internasionale literatuur wat verwant is aan vooruitbeplanning te identifiseer, te vergelyk en te analiseer. Die terme is bloudruk of meesterbeplanning, komprehensiewe beplanning, geïntegreerde beplanning, strategiese beplanning en ruimtelike strategiese beplanning. Laastens word die GOP en ROR vergelyk met die insigte wat uit die proses na vore getree het.
