The foundations of influencing policy and practice
COVID‐19 demonstrated the complex manner in which discourses from risk science are manipulated to legitimize government action. We use Foucault's theory of Governmentality to explore how a risk science discourse shaped national and local government action during COVID‐19. We theorize how national government policymakers and local government risk managers were objectified by (and subjectified themselves to) risk science models, results, and discou…
Legitimacy and place leadership
This article explores through interviews the influence of legitimacy on place leadership within regional soft spaces in England during the COVID-19 pandemic. Legitimacy is an important yet underexamined facet of place leadership. Employing a tripartite legitimacy framework – input, throughput and output legitimacy – we illuminate novel insights on the nature of legitimacy relationships at different boundaries of regional soft spaces and how they …
The paradox of social resilience
CSR and the “undeserving”
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how the conceptual lens of corporate social responsibility (CSR), business and civil society can be used to explore “less popular causes” (in this case, a community‐based public sector empirical study of initiatives with offenders) and, in particular, respond to the question used by Walzer “In which society can lives be best led?” Design/methodology/approach This is a formative and summative eva…

The enactment of a 'stage Irish identity' in a bar invokes cross-cutting images of the Irish as inherently prone to drinking and the pub as their natural habitat. For Irish migrant bar keepers, who deploy the symbolised identity as a form of cultural capit…
