Through an in-depth case study of Sacriston, a former mining village in County Durham, the authors explore how these regions can be revitalized by rebuilding social cohesion and harnessing latent economic potential. The book argues for more imaginative policies that consider the unique needs of these communities, advocating for a collaborative approach involving multiple levels of government. Aimed at policymakers and scholars, it offers insights applicable to regions across the UK, Europe, and beyond.Generated by AI.Regional Studies Policy Impact Bks.Community developmentGenerated by AIEconomic developmentGenerated by AICommunity developmentEconomic development363.094286Tomaney John272020Blackman Maeve1735764Natarajan Lucy940023Panayotopoulos-Tsiros Dimitrios1735765Sutcliffe-Braithwaite Florence1735766Taylor Myfanwy1735767MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910846991003321Social Infrastructure and Left Behind Places4155145UNINA
