‘Levelling up’ the UK: reinforcing the policy agenda
No full textABSTRACTIn early 2022, the UK government published its White Paper on Levelling Up the UK, arguably the most important spatial policy document for more than 80 years. There is much that is innovative in the White Paper, but also some key limitations and weaknesses. At a time of economic and political upheaval in the UK, it is imperative that the levelling up agenda in the White Paper is not de-prioritized or submerged by other challenges, but is used as the foundation for a truly radical approach to reducing geographical economic inequalities across the country. Our focus in this article, therefore, is one of constructive criticism, to argue how some of the fundamental aspects of the White Paper need to be reinforced and emboldened if the policy is not to fail
Levelling Up Left Behind Places: The Scale and Nature of the Economic and Policy Challenge
No full textThis book aims to understand the predicaments of ‘left behind places’ and the scale of the policy challenge of ‘levelling up’ their economic prosperity. Drawing out lessons of wider international significance, it examines how places (cities, towns and localities) have grown apart over recent decades amidst deindustrialisation, post-industrial transition and the disruptive shocks of the global financial crisis and COVID-19 pandemic. Using the UK case to illustrate its arguments, the analysis identifies the different types of ‘left behind places’ and their distinctive economic experiences. The key features of urban and regional institutions and policies are reviewed to understand more about why, despite some successes, geographical inequalities remain an entrenched feature of the UK, blighting the life chances and quality of life of its citizens, and national economic progress as a whole. The weaknesses of past policies are highlighted, and the case is made for a new, mission-oriented policy model, because only a radical shift in economic thinking, governance and management is likely to achieve the ‘levelling up’ that is now a prominent refrain in the political lexicon
In search of the skilled city: skills and the occupational evolution of British cities
No full textRecent research has argued that human capital has become the key driver of city growth and that there is a widening divergence between high and low-skill cities. This skilled city view includes several stylised propositions. The first is that more skills and human capital generate stronger economic growth; the second is that already skilled cities are becoming ever more skilled; and, the third is that larger cities tend to have stronger concentrations of, and fastergrowth in, high-skilled, cognitive occupations. Using a detailed dataset for occupational change in 85 urban Travel to Work Areas in Britain between 1981 and 2015, this paper evaluates whether these propositions apply to British urban evolution, and how they relate to the ‘hollowing-out’ of medium-skilled jobs. The results confirm the close interactive relationship between growth and high-skilled occupations. However, some of the skilled city propositions,such as ‘smart cities becoming smarter’, and a positive relationship between agglomeration and high skilled employment growth, do not apply in Britain where other factors have been more important. The pattern of high-skill growth has shown a strong regional dimension, and the ‘emergence’ of newer smaller cities, particularly in southern England has been more evident than the ‘resurgence’ of large core and industrial cities

Biographical Information/Historical Information
Ronald Allen "Ron" Robinson was born April 3, 1943, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, to
Edgar Fulton "Putt" Robinson and Martha Corinna (nee Reid) Robinson. He attended and
graduated from Glencoe High School in Glencoe, Oklahoma, and then the University of
Arkansas in Fayetteville, Arkansas. At the University of Arkansas, Ron earned a bachelor's
degree in journalism, graduating in 1965, and he also served as editor of the student
newspaper, the Arkansas Traveler. Orville Henry, sports editor of the Arkansas Gazette,
hired Robinson as a stringer to cover Razorback sports. Robinson later studied public
relations at Boston University Graduate School of Public Communications. In the late
1960s, Ron served in the United States Air Force, rising to the rank of captain. He was
awarded a Bronze Star for service in Vietnam and also received the Air Force
Commendation Medal for his support of the Apollo 11 mission to the moon in 1969.
While attending college in Fayetteville, Robinson served as an intern at CJRW--the largest
advertising agency in Arkansas, formed by Wayne Cranford, Jim Johnson, Shelby Woods,
and Wayne Woods. In 1970, Robinson joined the firm full-time and remained employed
there until his retirement in 1996. He became chairman and chief executive officer of the
firm. Following retirement, Ron remained "of council" to CJRW and, in 2009, was named
chairman emeritus of the firm.
In 1986, Robinson arranged for the writing and production of "Arkansas, You Run Deep in
Me," written and sung by Robinson's college roommate, Wayland Holyfield. The next year,
the state legislature named the song an official song of the state. In 1993, Robinson was
appointed to the United States Postal Service Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee, which
led to fifteen years of involvement in the creation and production of more than 1,750
postage stamp issues. He was named "Business Executive of the Year" by Arkansas
Business and received many other honors and awards for both professional work and
volunteer service. In 2014, the Central Arkansas Library System (CALS) dedicated a $10
million, 315-seat state-of-the-art theater in Little Rock's River Market, naming the venue
Ron Robinson Theater. In 2005, Robinson was honored as a "Distinguished Alumnus" of
the Fulbright College of Arkansas and Sciences of the University of Arkansas. A
scholarship bearing Robinson's name was established for journalism students at the
university.
Robinson was an avid collector of many kinds of items, particularly those with an Arkansas
connection. He amassed nearly 18,000 movie posters, as well as postage stamps, political
memorabilia, and other items. Robinson was a member of the Board of Directors of CALS'
Friends of the Library for three terms, provided pro bono consulting to the library system,
and contributed grants and memorials to CALS as well as material donations, such as 200
movie posters, hundreds of volumes for used book sales, and the items in this collection.
Ron Robinson married Bonnie Bumpers March 23, 1984. They have a son, Reid Robinson,
and two granddaughters. Ron died August 14, 2018. He is buried in Mount Holly Cemetery
in Little Rock. In 2022, the Forest Park Station Post Office on Kavanaugh Avenue in Little
Rock was renamed for Ron Robinson.
