Centre for the Study of Cities and Regions

CSCR-CLG Research Programme

Between 2002 and 2005 CSCR* undertook a major programme of research on urban regeneration and regional development for the UK Government's department of Communities and Local Government (CLG, formerly the ODPM). The programme involved seven research projects, valued at £200,000. The reports are available on the CSCR website (here) and on the CLG website here. The seven projects are as follows:

  • Cities, City Regions and the Changing Geography of Business Offices (Alan Townsend and Janet Tully)
  • Privatizing the City? The Tentative Push Towards Edge Urban Developments and Gated Communities in the United Kingdom (Gordon MacLeod)
  • Public Participation in the Revised Planning System (Alan Townsend with Janet Tully)
  • Urban Citizenship and Rights to the City (Joe Painter)
  • Multilevel Governance in England (Alan Townsend)
  • Coalfield Regeneration 1981-2003: Employment and Travel-to-Work (Alan Townsend and Ray Hudson)
