The shift to working from home is reshaping where we live and how often we commute: people in big cities benefit most from reduced commuting, fueling suburban growth (“donut effect”) and widening the productivity gap with smaller cities (“shadow effect”). #regions #RegionalFutures

Populism doesn't neatly overlap with the "revenge of places that don’t matter." Economic decline in #regions matters—but so do inequality, culture & local identity. Stark contrasts of wealth and opportunity locally contributes to dissatisfaction even without economic decline. #RegionalFutures

Ongoing appeal of populist parties in so-called 'left behind places', but in Germany, research shows social capital, connectedness and civic engagement reduce anti-establishment voting & more likely to back established, democratic parties. #RegionalFutures www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
