Poverty Street Zusammenfassung

Poverty Street: The dynamics of neighbourhood decline and renewal Ruth Lupton (University of Manchester)

Poverty street addresses one of the UK's major social policy concerns: the gap between the poorest neighbourhoods and the rest of the country. It is an account of neighbourhood decline, a portrait of conditions in the most disadvantaged areas and an up-to-date analysis of the impact of the government's neighbourhood renewal policies. The book: * explores twelve of the most disadvantaged areas in England and Wales, from Newcastle in the north to Thanet in the south, providing the reader with a unique journey around the country's poverty map; * combines evidence from neighbourhood statistics, photographs and the accounts of local people with analysis of broader social and economic trends; * assesses the effect of government policies since 1997 and considers future prospects for reducing inequalities.

Poverty Street Bewertungen

... a significant volume for researchers and policymakers. The text is clearly written, the arguments are compelling and one gets a clear sense of the key processes of transformation in disadvantaged areas. Environment and Planning B
... an excellent summary of the issues, debates and dilemmas surrounding neighbourhood renewal and decline. Urban Studies ... deserves to be widely read for its comprehensive and subtle treatment of neighbourhoods and neighbourhood policy. For the wider research project, it provides an immensely solid foundation on which to build. Housing Studies This book provides a fascinating account of how the socio-spatial divisions which characterised urban Britain at the turn of the 21st century are being produced, reinforced and, in some cases, mitigated both by rapid social and economic change and policy interventions. Journal of Housing Built Environ
... a major contribution to our evidence base on urban regeneration. Lupton makes a powerful case for greater recognition of the differing contexts of deprived neighbourhoods and the extent to which these enable or constrain policy outcomes. It is to be hoped that policy makers both nationally and locally will think hard about what this book has to say. Professor Mike Geddes, The Local Government Centre, University of Warwick
