Hope Under Neoliberal Austerity : Responses from Civil Society and Civic Universities Paperback / softback

Edited by Mel (Newcastle University) Steer, Simin (Newcastle University) Davoudi, Professor Mark (Newcastle University) Shucksmith, Liz (Newcastle University) Todd

Paperback / softback

Description

Neoliberal-driven austerity has changed the role of the state, public service provision and citizenship.

Thriving in today's society is a challenge for communities around the world as governments increasingly promote privatisation, centralised control, individual responsibility and battle with the impacts of Covid19.

Co-authored by practitioners and academics and based on case studies of collaborations between civil society and the civic university, this book uses the North East of England as a lens to explore how different communities have responded to changing circumstances.

The case studies present examples of actions aiming to create hope and inspiration for communities in challenging times.
