Navigating co-production with disadvantaged service users
Co-production involves citizens and service providers collaborating in the design and delivery of services, but its application to disadvantaged individuals remains underexplored. This study addresses this gap by examining the Y Heritage project in the Midlands, UK, which implemented co-production with disadvantaged young people as a means to develop local heritage services. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through int…
Collaborative innovation in a local authority – ‘local economic development-by-project’
This paper analyses how local authorities address the challenges of prolonged austerity by making use of collaborative innovation, financed through bidding for instrumental technology-based projects. Based on two case study projects within a local authority in England, analysis shows how local authority managers change their role, from brokers before and during bidding, to institution-builders during implementation, and networkers when attempting…
Contextualising co-production and complex needs
Much has been written about co-production in mainstream services but less is known about its applicability to service users with severe and multiple disadvantages (SMD). Given the sometimes-precarious relationship between providers and users with SMD, the paper argues that co-production should not be approached in the same way as conventional user engagement because of the degree of marginalisation, stigma and exclusion users with SMD face. Throu…
Post-Brexit regional policy in England
‘Levelling Up’ has come to dominate debates around regional inequality in England, but has been criticized for lacking clarity and definition. This paper addresses this critique by providing an early assessment of the concept. It summarizes and critically reviews Levelling Up, arguing that the concept offers a mix of marginal and familiar policies, alongside aspirations for industrial policy and research and development. Furthermore, Levelling Up…
Shapers or schemers of collaborative governance
The coordination of inter-organisational networks is key to their success and yet partnership management in the context of regional economic development remains a complex and ambiguous process. To address this lack of understanding, this article reviews the extant literature on brokerage and network coordination and presents a theoretical framework comprising three propositions on the benefits of a private sector influence over the management and…
Intergovernmental dynamics in responding to Covid-19 in English and Australian cities
This comparative study, conducted at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, explores how the contrasting governance systems in Australia and England responded to complex and rapidly evolving problems presented by the crisis. Comparing how national and local governments worked together and alongside other forms of subnational governance, the findings highlight the efficacy of multi-scalar governance arrangement in Australia over the fragmented, over…
Place leadership
Models of subnational governance have grown in popularity across Europe, but the notion of place-based leadership remains an ideological phenomenon. This paper explores the development of subnational partnerships in England and considers the lack of formal guidance available to local leaders that limits their ability to develop transformational strategies. Drawing on extensive qualitative analysis of England’s local enterprise partnerships, the p…

National identity cards
Prior to the election of the Labour Government in May 1997, plans were underway to introduce a national identity card scheme in the UK. The then Home Secretary, Michael Howard and representatives from the police and other groups had argued that amongst a wide range of benefits such a scheme would bring included improving police efficiency and helping to tackle a number of social problems. Others, however, raised concerns about the impact such a s…
Compulsion By Stealth
Policing the community
For most citizens living in the European Union, the carrying of a national identity card has become an accepted part of life, but in the UK it has been at the centre of an ongoing and controversial debate. This article explores the potential effect the introduction of a national identity card scheme in the UK may have on the relationship between the police and ethnic minority groups and examines the significance of the scheme being voluntary or c…
