- Cities and Regions in Crisis is a 300-page substantive interdisciplinary synthesis of research undertaken over 25 years on different approaches to state intervention, neoliberalism, depoliticization, crisis and contradiction theories. Buttressed by ESRC grants, it draws on 250 interviews with agents involved in constructing the mechanisms, institutions, and spaces of subnational economic development. The book captures the historical flux surrounding economic development and the constant changes to legislation, institutional, and governmental responsibilities. Its empirical depth is, therefore, considerable. The book importantly and doubly spans theories of political economy and narratives of regional and urban policy, using each to inform the other.
