Changing Neighbourhood Regeneration in Britain

  • Chapter
Book cover Soziale Stadt — Zwischenbilanzen

Abstract

This paper outlines how the scale, techniques and purpose of neighbourhood renewal policies in the UK have evolved. Until the last decade regeneration was largely perceived as a re-distributive policy to alleviate the symptoms of decline processes in inner-city neighbourhoods. Current approaches are based on more complex notions both of the geographies involved and the processes which cause them.
