“…These reurbanisation processes (Couch et al, 2009;Nevin, 2010;Cocks and Couch, 2012) have been similar to those experienced in large metropolitan city centres elsewhere (Couch, 1999;Seo, 2002;Bromley et al, 2007;Allen, 2007;Howley and Clifford, 2009;Rae, 2013).…”

“…The intense nancialisation of residential property-led regeneration is characteristic of contemporary neoliberal urban development and represents the latest stage in the development of dwellings in the city centre and waterfront (Couch and Dennemann, 2000;Morris and Speake, 2010;Nevin, 2010). These reurbanisation processes (Couch et al, 2009;Nevin, 2010;Cocks and Couch, 2012) have been similar to those experienced in large metropolitan city centres elsewhere (Couch, 1999;Seo, 2002;Bromley et al, 2007;Allen, 2007;Howley and Clifford, 2009;Rae, 2013).…”

The critical current of urban regeneration scholarly research focusses on neoliberal urbanism. In concentrating on the neoliberal economic, business and nancial dimensions as driving forces behind urban change and regeneration, the human dimension of city centres and city centre living is frequently overshadowed. This paper explores the human dimension through the example of Engage Liverpool, a citizen and neighbourhood organisation. This paper investigates citizen engagement with urban development in the setting of the city centre and central waterfront in Liverpool. The paper argues that despite the dominance of global neoliberal forces within regeneration, citizen and neighbourhood organisations such as Liverpool Engage may have the potential to facilitate citizens' participation as change makers in urban (re)development.

“…Indeed, to the current population within areas can also be added a future citizenry, not only a set of putative incomers but also future generations of existing residents. Nevin (2010) also draws attention to the complex spatialisations inherent in the path-dependency of local politics. So circumscribed, the evaluation of the (in)justices involved in demolition become far less clearly defined.…”

Competing Ideas of Social Justice and Space: Locating Critiques of Housing Renewal in Theory and in Practice

This article considers the experience of the English government's policy of HousingMarket Renewal from the perspective of spatial justice. The paper first proposes an analytical framework that situates competing notions of territorial social justice within a space of complex sociospatial relations. The dialectic of two formulations of social justice is first set up, comparing 'procedural' or deontological forms of justice and the distributional justice of outcomes. Soja's formulation of spatial justice is advanced as an appropriate balance between spatial and socio-historic contexts for the justice question. Drawing on the literature on sociospatial relations, concrete critiques and justifications of HMR are then positioned in terms of the intersection of structuring principles and policy fields. The role of demolition in urban restructuring programmes is used to explore the differential spatialities involved in different justicial perspectives. It is concluded that 'gentrification' critiques of HMR are only partial in their evaluation of justice and lack normative power. Some practical implications for the design of urban restructuring policies are offered.
