This paper aims to address the issues facing 'left behind' places and stimulate new thinking about alternative approaches. It argues that a new conception is needed to address issues of belonging and attachment, and outlines the basis of an expanded neo-endogenous development approach.
The recent wave of populism has focused attention on 'left behind' places as hotspots of discontent. Seeking to remedy their neglect in urban and regional studies, the aim of this paper is to engage with the problems of 'left behind' places and to stimulate fresh thinking about alternative approaches. Reflecting the complex and inter-connected issues facing such places, it argues that a new conception is required to address issues of belonging and attachment. The paper outlines the basis of an expanded neo-endogenous development approach, identifying the foundational economy, income and livelihoods, social infrastructures and social innovation as key policy concerns.
