Regional variations in waste minimization in England
Exploring regional variations in waste minimization in England. This is vital to underpin coming waste strategies. There are a number of key challenges and issues for policy development that must be addressed urgently
Longer distance commuting as a substitute for migration in Britain
Recent years have witnessed important changes in working and family lives in Britain. Key labour market developments include growth in higher-level non-manual occupations, of women in employment, and in flexible working practices. One outcome of these trends has been an increase in ‘two-earner’ households. Meanwhile, research on commuting patterns has revealed a trend towards longer, and more geographically diverse, journey-to-work flows. For som…
Insights into unemployment and non-employment in Europe using alternative measures
One of the most significant set of papers to come out of the portfolio of Regional Studies Association publications in recent years has concerned the exposure of the levels of hidden unemployment in many of the old industrial areas of Britain (see, for instance: 'Labour market adjustment in areas of chronic industrial decline: the case of the UK coalfields', Regional Studies 30 (7), 1997, 627-640). The authors of these papers, Christina Beatty an…
(Non)Participation in the Labour Market
In the context of the continuance of mass high unemployment in the United Kingdom and considerable debate concerning the 'real level' of unemployment, the authors of this paper go beyond the official unemployment rate by focusing on the development of alternative indicators of labour reserve in the regions of the United Kingdom. They show how, on a step-by-step basis, successively 'broader' indicators of labour reserve (more specifically, those o…
A Question of Compromise? Case Study Evidence on the Location and Mobility Strategies of Dual Career Households
GREEN A. E. (1997) A question of compromise? Case study evidence on the location and mobility strategies of dual career households, Reg. Studies 31, 641‐657. Drawing on in-depth interviews with 30 dual career households, this paper presents a framework for the study of, and selected evidence on, the key factors influencing the location and mobility strategies of a privileged and growing group of the population. The ways in which such factors are …
Exclusion, Unemployment and Non-employment
GREEN A. E. (1997) Exclusion, unemployment and non-employment, Reg. Studies 31, 505‐520. This paper provides an overview of selected issues pertinent to an examination of comparative experiences of exclusion, with foremost emphasis on the labour market dimension of exclusion ‐ notably unemployment and non-employment. The way in which ‘losers' and ‘winners' emerge as a result of changes in the socio-economic environment is outlined, with particula…
The ‘blurring of boundaries’ between ‘work’ and ‘home’
This article seeks to contribute to the debate surrounding the temporal and spatial ‘blurring of boundaries’ between ‘home’ and ‘work’ by presenting selected results from an empirical study of dual career households in the East Midlands relating to the ‘temporal’ and ‘spatial’ strategies adopted by individuals and households for managing the demands of ‘paid work careers’ and ‘household careers’
Who Decides What? Decision Making in Dual-Career Households
Ethnic Minority Groups in Regional and Local Labour Markets in Britain
"This paper outlines the context of, and discusses the need for, local information on the demographic patterns and labour market experience of ethnic minority groups in many parts of Britain. The specific focus is on the identification and assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of particular data sources providing spatially disaggregated information on the economic position of ethnic minority groups."
A Comparison of Alternative Measures of Unemployment
Local unemployment rates are frequently used as economic and social indicators at the subregional scale. However, in the early 1990s there has been increasing debate amongst social scientists, economists, and planners about the scope, coverage, and usefulness of unemployment counts and rates. This paper is concerned with comparing and contrasting information available on unemployment from three main data sources-the Employment Department claimant…
Policy Review Section
In this issue of the Policy Review Section, Anne Green of the Institute for Employment Research, University of Warwick, examines the changing structure of female participation in the labour market. Against this background it is her contention that the economic activity rate is no longer an adequate measure of contrasting patterns of labour force participation–across areas and within and between population sub-groups. Rather, she argues what is ne…

The Role of Migration in Labour-Market Adjustment
In this paper the role of migration in bringing labour supply and demand into balance (or in mitigating imbalance) in Britain in the 1980s is investigated. The paper begins with a brief introduction to the theoretical perspectives on labour migration and the relevant data sources. The major trends in migration and unemployment at national and regional scales are outlined, and the key characteristics of job-related migrants are identified. In the …
Local Economic Performance in Britain during the Late 1980s
The principal results of the third and latest Booming Towns study are presented. The patterns of local economic performance across Britain's 280 local labour market areas for the late 1980s are examined and the degree of variation within regions compared with that between regions. In particular, the extent to which the economic recovery which began in London around 1983 penetrated across the country over this period is assessed and the effects of…
Research Policy and Review 35. The Booming Towns Studies
In this paper the value of the Booming Towns approach to ranking local areas on the basis of their economic performance is assessed. More specifically, detailed methodological issues, such as the choice of appropriate areal units, the selection of indicator variables, and the manner of combining and ranking indicators to derive synthetic indices are discussed, with reference to possible alternative approaches

The North-South Divide in Great Britain
Recently there has been a renewed interest in spatial inequalities and the North-South divide. Evidence on the geographical dimensions of selected inequalities in Britain is examined. The existence of a North-South divide, alongside other divisions is established but the exact location of the divide is shown to vary from one indicator to another. The claims of those refuting the existence of a North-South divide are investigated. It is contended …

Attention is drawn to the uniquely geographical character of the data contained on the disc--and the fact that information for t…
The Likelihood of Becoming and Remaining Unemployed in Great Britain, 1984
There has been much discussion recently of unemployment as a dynamic phenomenon; with substantial flows on and off the unemployment register taking place within the context of a relatively stable level of unemployment at the national level. Policy makers, however, have tended to ignore flows, concentrating instead on local variations in unemployment rates; thus disregarding the fact that areas with similar unemployment rates may have different ty…

An Efficient Algorithm to Generate Official Statistical Reporting Areas
Travel-to-work areas (T.T.W.A.s) are used by the Department of Employment for the reporting of monthly local unemployment statistics. T.T.W.A.s are also used to demarcate those parts of Britain to benefit from the public expenditure on industry under regional policy. The 1984 revision of T.T.W.A. boundaries provided academics with a rare opportunity to help rationalize official statistical areas. This involved the specification of zone-design cri…
