Levelling Up
The Levelling Up White Paper (LUWP) published on 2 February 2022 makes the case for investment in six capitals (human, financial, social, physical, intangible and institutional), which it argues underpin economic and social development (HM Government, 2022). These capitals are inter-related: for example, financial capital is required for investment in other capitals. There are also capitals which are not included, for example natural or environme…
Introduction
For this special issue of the International Review of Public Policy we have assembled a collection of papers originally presented to the four sessions held at the Third IPPA International Workshop on Public Policy (IWPP3) hosted by the University of Budapest on 28th and 29th June 2021. Organised around the theme ‘Local Government Responses to the COVID-19 Pandemic: Mitigation, Adaptation and Support’, the aims of the workshop were as follows: To …
Path Clearing, Policy Acceleration or Trend Reinforcement
Since its onset in 2020 Covid-19 impacts have engendered rapid interventions across all policy domains and at all scales of government. This has prompted lively debate around the wider significance and longer-term implications of such moves with regard to their role as potential 'punctuations' within a broader policy paradigm shift. This includes acting as a ‘path-clearing’ mechanism that heralds a move towards a different approach; representing …
Tackling transport-related barriers to employment in low-income neighbourhoods
A study for the Joseph Rowntree Foundation carried out by a joint team from Sheffield Hallam University and the University of Sheffield has found that residents in low-income neighbourhoods are willing to travel to work but find the 90 minute maximum imposed by Jobcentre Plus to be quite unrealistic. Not only are commuting options constrained by unaffordable or unreliable public transport, but when combined with the prospect of low
Industrial strategy and the UK regions
The UK government’s new Industrial Strategy could have a significant impact on the country’s regions and localities. However, this has received little attention to date. The analysis presented here examines the existing location of the sectors targeted by the first phase of the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund and the location of the R&D laboratories likely to be first in line for funding. In focusing on an extremely narrow range of sectors, th…
Rethinking the impact of regeneration on poverty
For decades regeneration programmes in England targeted areas where spatial concentrations of poverty exist. These 'area-based initiatives' (ABIs) came under sustained attack, however, from the previous coalition government for being expensive and ineffective. This paper assesses this claim by re-evaluating past evidence on the impact of regeneration on poverty. It finds regeneration did relatively little to transform households' material circums…

Extending Employability or Solving Employers' Recruitment Problems? Demand-led Approaches as an Instrument of Labour Market Policy
For years, labour market policy in the UK has been dominated by activation measures that seek to increase employment levels among the unemployed. This supply-side focus emphasises individual characteristics and responsibilities in isolation from wider labour market factors. However, there is widening acceptance that policies for employability can provide a link between the supply and demand sides of the labour market. This implies the involvement…
Urban Regeneration and Transport Investment
There has been little work exploring the impact of transport investment on economic regeneration at the urban scale. This lack of attention is in part related to theoretical inadequacies and methodological difficulties, not least the separating out and attribution of effects. Such issues were addressed by a major empirical study conducted in Sheffield during the early 1990s. This paper outlines the research methods adopted, which involved breakin…
Updating population and household projections for Yorkshire and Humberside
It is an axiom of good planning practice that the most up-to-date information available should be used in the production of any type of planning framework.In many ways this constitutes the core interface between planning practice and research, for new sources of data have to be analysed or used to evaluate the validity of assumptions that have previously underpinned particular policies or \nland allocations. Nowhere is this more sensitive or stra…

Models of the Land-Development Process
In recent years, numerous conceptual models of the land-development process have been produced. In this paper, this material is brought together for the first time; not only are the salient characteristics of these models presented, but also they are evaluated critically in relation to their clarity, applicability, and theoretical underpinnings. Four different categories of model are identified, namely sequential descriptions, behavioural models,…
