Re-Mapping Centre and Periphery
Historians often assume a one-directional transmission of knowledge and ideas, leading to the establishment of spatial hierarchies defined as centres and peripheries. In recent decades, transnational and global history have contributed to a more inclusive understanding of intellectual and cultural exchanges that profoundly challenged the ways in which we draw our mental maps. \n \nCovering the early modern and modern periods, Re-Mapping Centre an…
Using an integrated model of care between an acute hospital and primary care in a transitional care unit to support patient flow and discharge home
Introduction: Hospitals have increasing numbers of emergency department attendances each year. We need to treat these patients more quickly and avoid emergency over-crowding thus allowing patients to flow freely through the acute hospital. Hospitals require timely and efficient discharge processes to achieve adequate patient flow. In a previous quality improvement project to reduce readmissions, we had highlighted the importance of supporting pat…
Debating Temporary Uses for Vacant Urban Sites
Temporary land uses have become the focus of much debate within academic and policy circles in recent years. Although the international literature contains numerous case studies of temporary interventions, little attention has been paid to the dynamics of the interactions among different stakeholders. This paper reports on a stakeholder workshop that used a participatory research approach to collectively define the issues facing those interested …
Zombies in the classroom
This paper reports on an introductory world regional geography course with a role-playing exercise. The goal was to situate students in a form of popular geopolitics that engaged them viscerally with positionality and othering. Students were assigned different positionalities in a liminal active learning environment within a context of fear of zombies; some actually engaged in othering or were othered; many vocally critiqued their own or others' …
Logalization”
Much of the research on industrialization in less developed countries like China focus on top-down globalization processes associated with foreign direct investment from transnational corporations. This paper attempts to augment that literature with greater attention for bottom-up processes, which are also important in China. This case study of the Shiling leather industrial district was chosen because of the importance of bottom-up initiated loc…
Teaching critical thinking in world regional geography through stakeholder debate
Using a stakeholder debate based on a real-world case of regional construction – that of Turkey's application to join the European Union – improved students' critical thinking in an introductory world regional geography course. Such courses are a staple offering among US geography departments, and often the only exposure of non-majors to geographic thinking. A stakeholder debate highlighting regional construction, using structured learning activi…
Urban Management and Regeneration in the United States
For some commentators, urban regeneration in the United States is built around a narrowly economistic or neo-liberal model of redevelopment rather than a socially inclusive or participatory 'new regionalist' model. In considering whether or not there is a uniformly neo-liberal 'US model' of urban regeneration, this paper examines a variety of urban regeneration tools currently used in the US. These include: public–private partnerships; special pu…

The Commerce Clause as a Constraint on Wasteful Business Incentives
State and local economic development efforts have grown during the last three decades in the United States. Some public incentives for companies may be effective, including those for high unemployment areas; others may be wasteful, especially if they retain corporations that merely threaten to leave. As companies increasingly expect incentives, however, governments find themselves in a ‘race to the bottom’– the only way to remain competitive is t…

The Keep Jeep in Toledo Campaign
In 1996, Chrysler announced plans to build a replacement plant within 50 miles of its existing Toledo Jeep facilities. In theory, this presented an opportunity for alternatives to expensive 'all or nothing' individual competition; in practice, Toledo and other governments in the northwest Ohio/southeast Michigan region entered into the usual cutthroat contest when transnational corporations solicit incentive offers from across the United States. …

The Good of the Many Outweighs the Good of the One
Regional cooperation involves cooperative networks of local and regional public, private, and nonprofit bodies, working with higher levels of government, that focus their economic development efforts for the benefit of their region or group of regions as a whole. The assumption is that regional cooperation is “good” and may be able to address some of the shortcomings of competition for private investment among individual localities. This article …

European Economic Integration and Urban Inequalities in Western Europe
Recent processes of European integration have influenced profoundly the fortunes of cities across Western Europe. Although some cities have benefited, others have been impacted adversely. Income inequalities result from economic growth differentials occurring between different cities over time. The theoretical literature differs on whether increased integration promotes or reduces income disparities. The European Union (EU) assumes that rising in…
Poppies in a Wheat Field
Many believe that lesbian identity is predicated upon the availability of opportunities in urban life to find information, support, and like others (Bell and Valentine 1995a). Indeed, exploring one's lesbian sense of self often involves identifying with a visible reference group, seeking out social arenas where there are other gays and lesbians, connecting with a local community, and taking part in gay and lesbian oriented activities. For rural r…
The politics of mediating global economic change
More attention has been paid in the literature to the conceptual than to the methodological issues associated with incorporating the importance of the larger political economy into the politics of urban economic change. The empirical analysis combines an interurban analysis with comparative case studies to link political and economic contexts and changes and their interactions at and between scales. This facilitates a better understanding of the …
