  • Valuing the ‘new normal’? Housing markets under Covid-19: Insights from a hybrid hedonic repeat sales model

    Open Access•Stephen Hinck, Chris Leishman et al.•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning B Urban…•2025

    This study considers the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sub-national housing markets in Wales, focusing on the contribution of environmental and productivity attributes on house price change. Using a hybrid hedonic/repeat sales framework, we examine trends before, during, and after the pandemic. Initially, higher-quality environmental and productivity attributes were associated with a positive premium in price growth, while lower quality attr…

  • Airbnb and the Covid-19 pandemic: A geospatial analysis of Greater London

    Open Access•Nan Wang, Stephen Hinck•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning B Urban…•2025

    This paper examines the response of the Airbnb ‘market’ to the shock of COVID-19, exploring the spatio-temporal variations in Airbnb listings, revenues, and hosting patterns in Greater London over the pre-lockdown, lockdown, and post-lockdown periods. At an aggregate level, Airbnb listings and revenues were found to have declined during the pandemic with disruptions differentiated according to the professional or amateur status of hosts. We then …

  • Building geodemographic regions: Commuting, productivity and uneven spatial development in England and Wales

    Open Access•Stephen Hinck, Hadi Arbabi et al.•ARTICLE•Regional Studies•2025•References: 4

    We develop and apply a novel geodemographic classification of commuting flows to delineate 486 functional labour market areas (LMAs) across six commuter groups in England and Wales. Framed by the north-south divide, we then use settlement scaling to examine how economic and infrastructural agglomeration influence productivity, using the geodemographic LMAs as our base units. We find that disparities in mobility and infrastructure contribute to sp…

  • Built‐environment stocks in the context of a master‐planned city: A case study of Chandigarh, India

    Open Access•Will Mihkelson, Hadi Arbabi et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Industrial Ecology•2024

    Construction materials accumulate in the built environment forming material stocks (MS) of buildings and infrastructure, providing various services to society that result in a nexus of human development and environmental impact. Meanwhile, unprecedented urbanization in the Global South is set to put significant demand on the resources required to ensure adequate standards of living in new and existing urban areas. This is particularly important w…

  • A new typology of climate change risk for European cities and regions: Principles and applications

    Open Access•Stephen Hinck, Jeremy Carter et al.•ARTICLE•Global Environmental Change•2023•Cited by: 2•References: 3

    A new spatial typology of climate change risk for European cities and regions. • Response to IPCC call to understand climate change risks at sub-national levels. • Uneven climate change risk across the 33 countries covered by the typology. • Differences in risk profiles facing urban, rural and peri -urban areas. • Evidence of spatial clustering in climate change risk across typology classes. This paper aims to contribute to the analysis of climat…

  • The ‘just’ management of urban air pollution? A geospatial analysis of low emission zones in Brussels and London

    Open Access•Theo Verbeek, Stephen Hinck et al.•ARTICLE•Applied Geography•2022

    The increasing evidence base and public concern on the health effects of exposure to high levels of air pollution, combined with stricter environmental legislation, are forcing local governments to take drastic measures. One of the policy instruments, the low emission zone (LEZ), specifically targets a reduction in emissions from vehicles, a key source in urban environments. It is a contested instrument, with supporters who think it is a fair “po…

  • Territorial stigmatisation beyond the city: Habitus, affordances and landscapes of industrial ruination

    Open Access•Stephen Hinck, Ryan Powell•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning A…•2022•Cited by: 6•References: 67

    Loїc Wacquant's concept of territorial stigmatisation has resonated widely across the social sciences and is increasingly called upon in analyses and critiques of contemporary modes of governing marginality. It forms a key part of his broader theorisation of the polarised city and urban scholars have responded to his call for comparative analyses of neoliberal state-crafting in applying it to other urban contexts. This paper focuses on non-urban …

  • The ephemerality of prominence: A geospatial analysis of acoustic affordances in a hillfort landscape

    Open Access•Stephen Hinck, Robert Johnston•ARTICLE•Journal of Anthropological…•2022•Cited by: 2•References: 34

    Prominent places were powerful places. The persistence and stability of prominent places typically depends upon the prioritisation of their physical and visual attributes. Yet if we are interested in the expression of prominence and power, then we should take account of the potential ways that places reached acoustically into the landscape. Acoustics complement visibility since sound like sight helps shape human experiences, memories and emotions…

  • Temporary urban uses in response to Covid-19: Bolstering resilience via short-term experimental solutions

    Iain Deas, Michael E Martins et al.•ARTICLE•Town Planning Review•2021

    Earlier research has focused on the temporary reuse of land and buildings in response to economic crises or natural disasters. This article highlights the ways in which the COVID-19 crisis has also triggered multiple examples of temporary use. It develops a framework to categorise different forms of temporary use emerging in response to COVID-19. The article highlights two challenges as the crisis evolves: how to employ temporary uses more effect…

  • Temporary use in England’s core cities: Looking beyond the exceptional

    This paper develops an understanding of the structural and spatial characteristics of regulated forms of temporary use across England’s core cities. The paper’s contribution lies in its adoption of an extensive research design that goes beyond the intensive qualitative approaches that predominate in the temporary use literature. We employ a novel data set of 5890 temporary use interventions that have been recorded over a 15-year period (2000–2015…

  • Performing the city-region: Imagineering, devolution and the search for legitimacy

    This paper provides new conceptual and empirical insights into the role city-regions play as part of a geopolitical strategy deployed by the nation state to enact its own interests, in conversation with local considerations. Emphasis falls on the performative roles of economic models and spatial-economic imaginaries in consolidating and legitimising region-building efforts and the strategies and tactics employed by advocates to gain credibility a…

  • The Role of Temporary Use in Urban Regeneration: Ordinary and Extraordinary Approaches in Bristol and Liverpool

  • Deprived neighbourhoods in transition: Divergent pathways of change in the Greater Manchester city-region

    Open Access•Stephen Hinck•ARTICLE•Urban Studies•2017•Cited by: 4•References: 39

    Many studies of neighbourhood change adopt a ‘bookend’ mode of analysis in which a baseline year is identified for a chosen outcome variable from which the magnitude of change is calculated to a determined endpoint typically over bi-decadal or decadal timeframes. However, this mode of analysis smoothes away short-run change patterns and neighbourhood dynamics. The implications of this practice could be far reaching if it is accepted that as neigh…

    This article examines the prominent role of Manchester in recent devolution debates. The so-called “Manchester Model” for city-regional governance has been based on developing a tradition of close collaboration amongst neighbouring local authorities, allied to a highly strategic approach to building alliances, the development of a strong if selective evidence base and an intellectual agenda inspired by agglomeration economics. Drawing on 35 inter…

  • Placing Greater Manchester

    In this short paper we place Greater Manchester (GM) in two ways. First, we place historically the current construction of ‘Greater Manchester’ which has formed the territorial basis of the recently created Combined Authority. This reveals the work that has gone on by actors of varying geographical reach to build, maintain and nourish a particular set of governing arrangements, particular in the institutional vacuum created by the mid-1980s aboli…

  • Neighbourhood Change and Deprivation in the Greater Manchester City-Region

    Open Access•Stephen Hinck•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning A…•2015•Cited by: 5•References: 32

    There is a long lineage in neighbourhood research that has underpinned sustained academic and policy interest in the UK centred on understanding how spatial 'clusters' of neighbourhood-based deprivation might be destabilised. This has seen the privileging of composite indices in the analysis of deprivation, which have been criticised for fostering a common perception that deprived neighbourhoods are homogeneous in terms of their compositions and …

    Open Access•Iain Deas, Stephen Hinck et al.•ARTICLE•Local Economy The Journal of the…•2013

    Local Enterprise Partnerships in England were intended as organic entities in which coalitions of local actors, led by business interests, would determine locally relevant policy for self-defined spatial units. Informed by ideas around localism and the desire to extend sub-national economic development policy making beyond the local state, central government envisaged an increased unevenness in local governance arrangements and policy approaches.…

  • A Critical Reflection on Housing Market Area Definition in England

    Stephen Hinck, Stephen Hincks et al.•ARTICLE•Housing Studies•2012•Cited by: 1•References: 29

    The adoption of administrative boundaries as approximations of housing markets has long restricted the scope for housing market analysis and planning policy development to be undertaken within a functional housing market framework in England. This has prompted consideration of the value of deriving housing market areas (HMAs) to underpin the development of housing market intelligence for planning and policy purposes. Drawing on a case study of No…

  • Making Plans: The Role of Evidence in England's Reformed Spatial Planning System

    This paper explores the use of evidence in the making of local development frameworks in England, introduced as part of the 2004 Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act. The reforms dictate that for a plan to be considered ‘sound’, the policy choices it contains must be justified through the compilation and use of an appropriate evidence base. The paper draws on research undertaken as part of the UK government-sponsored Spatial Plans in Practice (SP…

This article highlights the ways in which the COVID-19 crisis has also triggered multiple examples of temporary use. It develops a framework to categorise different forms of temporary use emerging in response to COVID-19. The article highlights two challenges as the crisis evolves: how to employ temporary uses more effect…

  • The ‘just’ management of urban air pollution? A geospatial analysis of low emission zones in Brussels and London

    Open Access•Theo Verbeek, Stephen Hinck et al.•ARTICLE•Applied Geography•2022

    The increasing evidence base and public concern on the health effects of exposure to high levels of air pollution, combined with stricter environmental legislation, are forcing local governments to take drastic measures. One of the policy instruments, the low emission zone (LEZ), specifically targets a reduction in emissions from vehicles, a key source in urban environments. It is a contested instrument, with supporters who think it is a fair “po…

  • Territorial stigmatisation beyond the city: Habitus, affordances and landscapes of industrial ruination

    Open Access•Stephen Hinck, Ryan Powell•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning A…•2022•Cited by: 6•References: 67

    Loїc Wacquant's concept of territorial stigmatisation has resonated widely across the social sciences and is increasingly called upon in analyses and critiques of contemporary modes of governing marginality. It forms a key part of his broader theorisation of the polarised city and urban scholars have responded to his call for comparative analyses of neoliberal state-crafting in applying it to other urban contexts. This paper focuses on non-urban …

  • The ephemerality of prominence: A geospatial analysis of acoustic affordances in a hillfort landscape

    Open Access•Stephen Hinck, Robert Johnston•ARTICLE•Journal of Anthropological…•2022•Cited by: 2•References: 34

    Prominent places were powerful places. The persistence and stability of prominent places typically depends upon the prioritisation of their physical and visual attributes. Yet if we are interested in the expression of prominence and power, then we should take account of the potential ways that places reached acoustically into the landscape. Acoustics complement visibility since sound like sight helps shape human experiences, memories and emotions…

  • Built‐environment stocks in the context of a master‐planned city: A case study of Chandigarh, India

    Open Access•Will Mihkelson, Hadi Arbabi et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Industrial Ecology•2024

    Construction materials accumulate in the built environment forming material stocks (MS) of buildings and infrastructure, providing various services to society that result in a nexus of human development and environmental impact. Meanwhile, unprecedented urbanization in the Global South is set to put significant demand on the resources required to ensure adequate standards of living in new and existing urban areas. This is particularly important w…

  • Valuing the ‘new normal’? Housing markets under Covid-19: Insights from a hybrid hedonic repeat sales model

    Open Access•Stephen Hinck, Chris Leishman et al.•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning B Urban…•2025

    This study considers the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sub-national housing markets in Wales, focusing on the contribution of environmental and productivity attributes on house price change. Using a hybrid hedonic/repeat sales framework, we examine trends before, during, and after the pandemic. Initially, higher-quality environmental and productivity attributes were associated with a positive premium in price growth, while lower quality attr…
