In the UK devolution to 'new' nations and localities is generating differences in the tone and substance of social care. In Scotland there is an apparent rejection of the 'personalisation' model dominant in England and other neoliberal welfare states; in its place, there is an emphasis on locally based co-produced care provision, involving local organisations, practitioners and individuals. The paper argues that this is an outcome of the open and deliberative nature of policy-making, and the further devolution of social care provision to local authorities in Scotland. Local scale networks and spaces of provision are generating a 'progressive localism', contesting the association between the local scale and financial austerity, drawing on a relational understanding of place. Non-commodified and locally-based provision expands the discourse of care from 'caring for' individuals to 'caring about' people and places, in what is termed an 'ethics of care'. The paper uses the example of people with learning disabilities to examine a more broadly conceived 'caring' within local communities, offering possibilities for inclusion and belonging. The paper draws on interviews with key policy makers and place-based care practitioners, known as 'Local Area Co-ordinators'. Au RU la dévolution des services publics aux « nouvelles » nations et aux localités génère des différences dans le ton et la substance des soins sociaux. En Ecosse il y a un rejet apparent du modèle « personnalisation » qui est dominant en Angleterre et aux autres Etats-providences néolibéraux; à sa place il y a une attention prêtée à l'approvisionnement des soins coproduit localement, ce qui implique des associations, des professionnels, et des individus locaux. L'article affirme que cela est la conséquence de la nature ouverte et délibérative de l'élaboration de la politique, ainsi que la dévolution continue de la provision des soins sociaux aux pouvoirs publics locaux en Ecosse. Des réseaux à l'échelle locale et des espaces d'approvisionnement sont en train de générer un « localisme progressif, » qui dispute l'association entre l'échelle locale et l'austérité financière en faisant usage d'une compréhension relationnelle du lieu. L'approvisionnement non-marchandisé et basé localement fait élargir le discours du care de « s'occuper des » individus à « se sentir concerné par » des gens et des lieux, ce qui se nomme une « éthique du care. » L'article se sert de l'exemple des personnes ayant des difficultés d'apprentissage pour examiner un « travail social » conçu plus largement dans des communautés locales, ce qui suggère des possibilités pour l'inclusion et l'appartenance. L'article fait usage des entretiens menés avec des responsables-clés et des accompagnateurs sociaux installés en place, dits des « coordinateurs en région locale. » La transferencia de competencias a las naciones y localidades 'nuevas' en el Reino Unido está generando diferencias de tono y substancia en la seguridad social. En Escocia existe un manifiesto rechazo al modelo de 'personalización', dominante en Inglaterra y en otros estados de bienestar neoliberales. En lugar de éste, se acentúan los modos de provisión de cuidado co-producidos y basados en la localidad que envuelven a organizaciones locales, médicos e individuos. Este trabajo sugiere que este modo de provisión es el resultado tanto de la naturaleza abierta y deliberativa del diseño de políticas como de la posterior devolución de la provisión seguridad social a las autoridades locales en Escocia. Las redes a escala local y los espacios de provisión están generando un 'localismo progresista' que desafía la asociación entre la escala local y la austeridad financiera a partir de una comprensión relacional del lugar. La provisión no-comodificada y de base local extiende el discurso del cuidado del 'cuidado de' individuos a la 'preocupación por' la gente y los lugares y que se reconoce bajo la denominación de una 'ética del cuidado'. Este artículo recurre al ejemplo de personas con dificultades de aprendizaje para abordar una concepción más amplia de 'cuidado' dentro de las comunidades locales, desde donde se ofrecen posibilidades para la inclusión y la pertenencia. Este trabajo se basa en entrevistas realizadas a agentes clave en el diseño de políticas y a profesionales del cuidado a nivel local conocidos como 'Coordinadores de área locales".

The three referees provided incisive, very constructive and encouraging comments. Notes 1. There are (approximately) 26,036 PwLD in Scotland known to local authorities; 10,116 have access to LACs (or what are regarded as equivalent) in twenty-one (of thirty-two) local authorities; 2,337 use LAC services. 'East' is a large city authority (population 480,000), with an estimated PwLD population of 3,552. It has the largest number of LACs in Scotland (sixteen) used by 350 PwLD; alongside this, the local authority has significantly reduced its collective provision for PwLD. 'West' consists of suburbs of Glasgow and smaller towns (population 106,000); it has a PwLD population of 551. The area has two LACs (used by fifty people), with a focus on independent living. 'Central' is a geographically large local authority (population 86,000), with a small city and surrounding towns and villages, with a PwLD population of 455 and three LACs (used by 50). Central maintains collective provision for community services and is often referred to as a model of LAC practice (SCLD Citation2011, Citation2012a
