Abstract

The government has made tackling the UK’s persistent spatial inequalities one of its top priorities, an objective which enjoys broad political consensus. Yet progress has been slow or absent, because of insufficient investment, an underestimation of the scale of the challenge, and a paucity of evidence. Henry Overman discusses these failings and how to remedy them.
