2022 CefES-JRC Webinar Series

Reframing urban and regional ‘development’ for ‘left behind places’

by Andy Pike (Newcastle University)

Monday 21 November 2022, 5 pm (CET) - Online (ZOOM) from the University of Milano-Bicocca

Webinar Description

The recent wave of populism has focused attention on ‘left behind’ places as hotspots of discontent. Seeking to remedy their neglect in urban and regional studies, the aim of this paper is to engage with the problems of ‘left behind’ places and to stimulate fresh thinking about alternative approaches. Reflecting the complex and inter-connected issues facing such places, it argues that a new conception is required to address issues of belonging and attachment. The paper outlines the basis of an expanded neo-endogenous development approach, identifying the foundational economy, income and livelihoods, social infrastructures and social innovation as key policy concerns.
