Just transitions and sociotechnical innovation in the social housing sector
Creating low-carbon pathways for domestic electricity and heating is a core aspect of the UK Government's housing strategy. Understanding issues of energy justice and the socio-technical dynamics of low-carbon innovation are vital for successfully implementing new technologies and retrofit measures across diverse communities and different housing types. The social housing sector is particularly important in the study of just domestic low-carbon t…
Coal is our strife
This paper explores the history of representing coalmining heritage in museums between the 1960s and 1980s. The process of representing industry in museums during a period of significant economic change was highly contested. Whilst political and economic leaders often expressed a desire to vanquish the ‘old black industrial image’, there was a growing popular concern to venerate and represent an industrial culture and landscape that appeared unde…

Drawing upon research from the North East Association for the…

The Regional Apparel
La regionalisation a ete evoquee souvent entre 1960 et 1995 afin de legitimer les ambitions territoriales et l'expansionisme des politiciens locaux et des activistes regionaux.

Dans les regions d'Europe plus pauvres ceci represente egalement le …
