Evaluating area-based policies using secondary data
This study explores the feasibility of evaluating neighbourhood-based initiatives using secondary data. As a case study, we consider the Pathfinders programme, an area-based UK intervention and evaluate its impact on a broad range of outcomes in both short and longer term. We use grid reference data from a household panel survey to identify individuals living in 'treated' areas before and after and appropriate control individuals living in 'untre…

Levelling up’ the UK
In early 2022, the UK government published its White Paper on Levelling Up the UK, arguably the most important spatial policy document for more than 80 years. There is much that is innovative in the White Paper, but also some key limitations and weaknesses. At a time of economic and political upheaval in the UK, it is imperative that the levelling up agenda in the White Paper is not de-prioritized or submerged by other challenges, but is used as …
Levelling up Left Behind Places
This book aims to understand the predicaments of ‘left behind places’ and the scale of the policy challenge of ‘levelling up’ their economic prosperity. Drawing out lessons of wider international significance, it examines how places (cities, towns and localities) have grown apart over recent decades amidst deindustrialisation, post-industrial transition and the disruptive shocks of the global financial crisis and COVID-19 pandemic. Using the UK c…

Gated communities and land administration challenges in Ghana
Gated communities are proliferating in most developing countries. Scholars, however, continue to rely on mainstream demand-based arguments mostly framed in developed countries to explain this phenomenon, without giving sufficient attention to context-specific factors. Presenting the case of the Greater Accra Metropolitan Area in Ghana and using household surveys and key informant interviews, this article emphasizes Ghana’s land administration cha…
Industrial policy
Do Enterprise Zones have a role to play in delivering a place-based industrial strategy
We examine the body of evidence on Enterprise Zone policy with the objective of assessing its role in broader place-based industrial strategy. We conduct an extensive review, consolidate the empirical evidence into one place and examine it according to economic impact by zone type. We identify two gaps in the empirical knowledge that are systematically addressed through new research on several US Enterprise Zones to gain new evidence on their eco…

The city dimension of the productivity growth puzzle
Across OECD countries productivity growth has slowed, not just in recent years but over the past four decades: the so-called productivity puzzle. This paper examines the differing productivity growth paths of some 85 British cities since the beginning of the 1970s, and explores how far these paths reflect differences across cities in the pace and nature of structural change. We find that while northern cities led productivity growth over 1971–91 …
Growing apart? Structural transformation and the uneven development of British cities
Structural change is now widely considered to be an important aspect of national economic growth. The issue is not only relevant at the macro-economic level, but also has a direct bearing on the growth of regions and cities. In this article, we examine the relationship between structural transformation and economic (output) growth across British cities over the last half-century. During this time, the British economy has gone through a series of …
Cities in transition
There are preconditions that either enjoin urban innovation, or at least powerfully encourage it. But perhaps they never actually guarantee, inexorably, that it will happen: urban innovation is not the monopoly of one kind of place, even at the same period of capitalist evolution, let alone different eras. No place has a monopoly, whether large metropolis or small emerging city, old European capital or new West Coast upstart; any city can play. T…
Divergent cities? Unequal urban growth and development
According to Moretti (2013), deindustrialisation has been responsible for a “great divergence” between cities that have moved to become centres of innovation and ideas, and those that have continued to produce material goods. Other authors, however, place more emphasis on trends in specialisation and differences in productive bases as the driving forces behind urban divergence. Somewhat similarly, Storper (2013) argues that recent divergence has …

How Regions React to Recessions
Martin R., Sunley P., Gardiner B. and Tyler P. How regions react to recessions: resilience and the role of economic structure, Regional Studies. This paper examines how employment in the major UK regions has reacted to the four major recessions of the last 40 years, namely 1974-76, 1979-83, 1990-93 and 2008-10. The notions of resistance and recoverability are used to examine these reactions. The analysis reveals both continuities and significant …
Local growth evolutions
Change is one of capitalism's constants. It never stands still, but is in a state of constant churning, as old firms, products and technologies decline or disappear, and new firms, products and technologies emerge. It is this constant process of mutation and flux, what Schumpeter famously called 'creative destruction' , the 'perennial gale' of structural and technological change, that drives the evolution of the economy, "incessantly destroying t…
Spatially Rebalancing the UK Economy
Martin R., Pike A., Tyler P. and Gardiner B. Spatially rebalancing the UK economy: towards a new policy model?, Regional Studies. The current UK government has announced its intention to rebalance the national economy spatially, to create a ‘northern powerhouse’ to rival that in London and the South East. This imbalance is in fact a longstanding problem that 90 years of regional policy has not resolved. This paper argues that the entrenched natur…

Creatives after the crash
We examine recent evidence concerning the fate of creative workers since the economic crash of 2007-2008. There is some consensus that the creative economy is an important economic driver and does represent a source of fundamental economic change. There is less agreement on what this change means for the creative worker and workforce. Some studies suggest that the creative workforce has weathered the storm much better than those in lower-order se…

Spatially unbalanced growth in the British economy
The financial crisis and consequential recession that brought the UK’s long economic boom of 1992–2008 to a dramatic end have generated considerable debate about the need to ‘rebalance’ the economy, both sectorally and spatially. In this article, we examine the scale and nature of imbalance in the British economy. We first examine the stylized facts of spatial economic imbalance, especially in relation to the recurring debate over the existence a…

The geographies of austerity
As late as mid-2007, to most observers, the global economic scene looked rosy. It seemed as though the laws of economics had changed: the advanced economies had rid themselves of inflation, the business cycle had been expunged and stable growth firmly established. Such was the conviction that a new economic era had arrived that in 2003 the Governor of the Bank of England described the previous decade as being NICE—a period of ‘non-inflationary co…
Enterprising Behaviour and the Urban-Rural Shift
The paper presents and discusses new evidence on the nature and causes of the urban-rural shift of business activity and employment in England, derived from a matched pairs survey of over 1000 manufacturing and service businesses in remote rural, accessible rural and urban settlements. It reveals faster employment growth in rural firms, highlights the migration origins of and environmental influences on rural firm founders, and identifies signifi…

Assessing the Effect of Area Based Initiatives on Local Area Outcomes
During the past 25 years, there has been an extensive use of Area Based Initiatives (ABIs) to regenerate run-down areas in many countries. However, despite their increased popularity, evidence on their success in helping to turn around depressed areas remains elusive. The evidence base has been constrained by inadequate understanding of the theory of change behind the policy intervention, insufficient development of evaluation theory and method a…

Does spatial agglomeration increase national growth? some evidence from Europe
Economic geographers and regional economists have long been concerned with the problems provoked by uneven regional development and the ways by which policy intervention may be able to reduce such inequalities. However, in recent years the traditional argument for seeking to secure a reduction in the spatial concentration of economic activity in particular regions has been questioned and in some cases it has been suggested that policies that try …
Valuing the Benefits of Urban Regeneration
Although there have been many initiatives designed to regenerate relatively run-down and deprived parts of major urban areas, there have been surprisingly few attempts to value their benefits. This article presents the findings of research that has sought to value the benefits of urban regeneration policies. The focus has been on devising an approach that can build on the evidence provided from urban evaluations undertaken in many countries at th…

Geographical Variations in Transport Costs of Manufacturing Firms in Great Britain
The authors examine the extent to which there are geographical variations in transport costs for manufacturing firms in Great Britain. A new methodology is adopted which provides important new insights and which avoids many of the limitations of earlier work. The research presents a new index of transport accessibility for different types of industry by a thirty area disaggregation in Great Britain and translates the accessibility measure into an…
Geographical Variations in Industrial Costs
This paper presents the findings of research whose objective was to investigate the extent of geographical var iations in industrial costs in England.

During recent years there has been considerable interest in the effects which non-domestic rates (the local business tax) may be having on the competitiveness of British industry. Most discussion has been poorly informed because of the lack of an accounting framework with which to asses…
A Cost-Based Approach to the Modelling of Industrial Movement in Great Britain

The Influence of Regional Development Incentives and Infrastructure on the Location of Small and Medium Sized Companies in Europe
Greater levels of economic integration within Europe will bring more intense competition, not least for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs). This paper identifies the key factors in the SME location decision from a survey of almost 1400 companies. The most important factor was the availability of regional development assistance, followed by the quality and size of the labour supply, including wage levels, and the potential for future expans…

The Distribution of SRB Challenge Fund Expenditure in Relation to Local-area Need in England
During the 1980s and the 1990s there were a number of policy initiatives designed to tackle the problems of the urban areas in the UK. By the early 1990s these initiatives represented the commitment of over £1 billion of public expenditure each year. The initiatives encompassed 'area'-based approaches like Enterprise Zones and Urban Development Corporations at one extreme through to more 'people'-orientated, project-led approaches as in the case …

Freedom Writer
Virginia Foster Durr (1903-1999) was a monumental champion of civil rights and yet, as a privileged white southern woman, an unlikely one. Freedom Writer is a collection of her letters from across three decades of struggle for the cause of racial equality. In 1951, returning to her native Alabama after a twenty-year absence, Durr was deeply affronted by the same unchecked racism she recalled from her childhood. To help understand the South and ba…
