  • City As Lens: (Re)Imagining Youth in Glasgow and Hong Kong
    Article YOUNG City as Lens: (Re)Imagining 25(3) 1–17 © 2017 SAGE Publications and Youth in Glasgow and YOUNG Editorial Group Hong Kong SAGE Publications sagepub.in/home.nav DOI: 10.1177/1103308816669642 http://you.sagepub.com Alistair Fraser1 Susan Batchelor1 Leona Li Ngai Ling2 Lisa Whittaker3 Abstract In recent years, a paradox has emerged in the study of youth. On the one hand, in the context of the processes of globalization, neoliberalism and precarity, the pat- terning of leisure and work for young people is becoming increasingly convergent across time and space. On the other hand, it is clear that young people’s habits and dispositions remain deeply tied to local places, with global processes filtered and refracted through specific cultural contexts. Against this backdrop, drawing on an Economic and Social Research Council/Research Grants Council (ESRC/RGC)- funded study of contemporary youth in Glasgow and Hong Kong, this article seeks to explore the role of the city as a mediating lens between global forces and local impacts. Utilizing both historical and contemporary data, the article argues that despite parallels in the impact of global forces on the structure of everyday life and work, young people’s leisure habits remain rooted in the fates and fortunes of their respective cities.

  • The Politics of Care: Glasgow and the UK's Dispersal
    The Politics of Care: Glasgow and the UK’s Dispersal Policy Who Belongs Where: Controlling Movement and Settlement Word Count: 18, 733 By Stephanie Murphy Supervised by Darshan Vigneswaran University of Amsterdam Msc Political Science 1 Abstract Today we are witnessing a collective action problem between European states who are unable to manage immigration and asylum. In response, this thesis reflects on the role of urban spaces in reimagining narratives of acceptance. In the majority, EU states are reacting to the demands for sanctuary with hard borders, a pejorative discourse and ultimately the avoidance of responsibility. This is not only leading to an unproductive, but an immoral system with the value of human life lost. In light of this stalemate I turn to the urban level and discuss the role of local actors in challenging state decision-making, alongside the perceived trade-off between interests and ideas. I specifically focus on the case of Glasgow which stands out as a extreme example of asylum acceptance, taking far more than its fair share as a voluntary dispersal city under the UK’s asylum dispersal policy. By engaging with descriptive statistics, document analysis and semi-structured interviews I explore the interconnected factors which produce Glasgow’s high level of acceptance. In doing so I outline how the current theoretical framework is insufficient in explaining the complexities of acceptance beyond a zero-sum dialogue. I conclude by outlining how Glasgow’s position as a dispersal site has been maintained by an array of conceptual and normative factors which overtime have entrenched a ‘culture of care’ in the city.

In this thesis, I examine an approach in which city-wide efforts are undertaken to create a “city of art”’. Such attempts endeavor to infuse the entire city, not just specific districts, with arts and cultural activities and to develop a strong artistic inclination among its residents. Singapore’s recent plan to transform itself into a “Renaissance City” is an example of such an attempt to create a “city of art”.

    Because everyone in our city deserves a great Glasgow Life ANNUAL REVIEW AND PERFORMANCE REPORT 2018/19 Because everyone in our city deserves a great Glasgow Life. WELCOME FROM OUR CHAIR Not everyone in Glasgow gets to live a great Glasgow life. Everyone should and we’re working to make this happen. It’s what we do. We deliver for the people of Glasgow. In the 12 years since the creation of Glasgow Life, we’ve grown substantially, with attendances increasing by 4.6 million, from 14.3 million in our first year to 18.9 million now – a new record. More people are getting fit and physically active; more people are engaging with, and enjoying, our cultural assets; more people are benefiting from services which are rooted in, and valued by, their local communities. The numbers matter. We are changing lives – almost 19 million attendances at 171 Glasgow Life managed venues and sites across every part of the city. We manage incredible civic museums, fantastic libraries and community facilities and services, arts and music venues which are second to none and sports venues which are first rate. Across them all, and backed by our support teams, our 2,660 staff and army of more than 850 regular volunteers help more people to enjoy a good Glasgow life. Our debt to our team is huge. Thanks to hosting spectacular sporting events like the inaugural 2018 European Championships and the 2019 European Athletics Indoor Championships, Glasgow maintained its place as one of the world’s top five Ultimate Sports Cities in 2018.
