Social Infrastructure and Left Behind Places - Professor John Tomaney

This lecture with Professor John Tomaney discusses ‘Social Infrastructure and Left Behind Places’. Tomaney's recent publication, with the same title, explores the making, unmaking and remaking of social infrastructure in ‘left-behind places’. Such places, typically once flourishing industrial communities that have been excluded from recent economic growth, now attract academic and policy attention as sites of a political backlash against globalisation and liberal democracy.
