Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by: Mark Davies Department of Geography and Planning School of Environmental Sciences University of Liverpool October 2019 i Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template ii Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template DECLARATION This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing that is the outcome of work done by, or in collaboration with others, except where specifically indicated in the text. It has not been previously submitted, in part or completely, to any university or institution for any degree, diploma, or other qualification. Signed: ______________________________________________________________ Date: _________________________________________________________________ iii Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template iv Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template ABSTRACT As new digital technology fundamentally changes the way people shop, retail firms are increasingly seeking to optimise their store portfolios so that they effectively support the provision of an omni-channel retail offer, which is leading to the decline of many traditional retail spaces. This thesis seeks to explore this issue, by considering why, in the face of such profound structural changes in retailing, the prevailing response of planners has been to reemphasise support for „town-centre-first‟, despite the fact that such an approach appears fundamentally misaligned with the issues that are driving decline today. Utilising a mixed methods approach, involving a detailed historical analysis of the evolution of retail planning in England and in-depth interviews with planners, this thesis seeks to understand why it is that town-centre-first continues to pervade as a strategic approach in retail planning. In doing so, it will be shown that retail planning exhibits evidence of having become path dependent, which, it is proposed, is reflective of an increasing tendency towards risk-averse decision-making in planning more widely. In considering why risk-aversion has become a dominant characteristic of decision making in retail planning, this thesis builds upon the small but growing body of literature, which proposes that „fear‟, as an emotional state, has come to have a significant influence over the decision-making behaviour of planners. In doing so, it is argued that a culture of „fear‟ within planning practice is acting to inhibit the development of radical solutions to the decline of high street and town centre environments, ultimately resulting in a continuation of existing strategic policy approaches. v Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template vi Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template CONTENTS 1 INTRODUCTION ...................................................................................................... 15 1.1 BACKGROUND AND RESEARCH CONTEXT .............................................................. 15 1.2 RESEARCH FRAMEWORK ........................................................................................ 17 1.3 THESIS STRUCTURE ................................................................................................ 17 2 THE DECLINE OF BRITAIN’S HIGH STREETS: RETAIL AND RECESSION IN THE AGE OF DIGITAL CONSUMERISM ........................................................ 20 2.1 INTRODUCTION ....................................................................................................... 20 2.2 THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS AND ITS EFFECTS ON RETAIL IN BRITAIN ............ 21 2.2.1 The Impact of the Recession on Retail in Britain .................................................................... 22 2.2.2 Digital Consumerism and the Changing Behaviours of Consumers ........................................ 24 2.3 RETAILING IN THE DIGITAL AGE: FROM HIGH STREETS TO ISTREETS .................... 25 2.3.1 The Rise of Omni-Channel Retailing ...................................................................................... 25 2.3.2 From Expansion to Consolidation: Spatial Strategies in the Digital Era ................................. 27 2.4 THE CHALLENGE OF REVITALISING DECLINING TOWN CENTRES ........................... 29 2.4.1 The Portas Review: A New Strategy for Britain‟s High Streets .............................................. 29 2.4.2 The Industry Response to Portas ............................................................................................. 31 2.4.3 The Government Response to Portas ....................................................................................... 33 2.4.4 Establishing a Long-Term Strategic Vision for High Streets .................................................. 35 2.5 SHAPING THE TOWN CENTRES OF TOMORROW ....................................................... 37 2.5.1 The Disconnect between Policy and Problem.......................................................................... 38 2.5.2 Revitalising Town Centres: Is Town-Centre-First Sustainable?

  • Liverpool Development Update
    LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE November 2016 Welcome Welcome to the latest edition of Liverpool Development Update. When I became Mayor of the city in 2012, I said that Liverpool’s best days were ahead of it. If you consider the levels of investment being seen across the city today in 2016, my prediction is now ringing true. Since the start of 2012, we have seen over £3.8 billion worth of investment which has brought new businesses, new homes, new schools, and new and improved community and health facilities to Liverpool. We have seen the creation of nearly 15,000 job spaces, many of which will be filled with new jobs to the city. We have also created thousands more construction jobs. There is more good news. Several major new schemes are now in delivery mode. I am pleased to see rapid progress on Derwent’s Liverpool Shopping Park at Edge Lane, whilst Project Jennifer is now well underway with construction about to commence on its new Sainsburys and B&M stores. In addition, Neptune Developments have started work on the Lime Street Gateway project, and I can also report that work is underway on the first phase of the Welsh Streets scheme that will now see many of the traditional terraces converted to larger family homes. Meanwhile, some of the new schemes have started under the Strategic Housing Delivery Partnership which will build a further 1,500 new homes and refurbish another 1,000 existing ones. Plans for new schemes continue to be announced. The Knowledge Quarter is to be expanded with a new £1billion campus specialising in FRONT COVER: research establishments, whilst we are now also seeking to expand the Commercial Office District with new Grade A office space at Pall Mall which this city so vitally needs.

This document builds upon and supports the sustainable growth strategy for the area set out in the adopted Core Strategy. It includes consultation on the Revised Core Strategy policies and the Delivery and Allocations Local Plan. This document will seek to find and allocate the most sustainable sites to provide new housing and jobs, without these our local economy cannot grow and prosper and without the right infrastructure of all types to support that growth, our communities will not thrive. Because of this, the plan is about more than just finding sites to build on. It is also about identifying where building shouldn’t happen at all or where particular care must be taken. Its policies protect what is important to local people such as parks and playing pitches, Conservation Areas and Local Wildlife Sites. The development management policies need to be flexible enough to respond to legislative and market changes, whilst allowing the Council to strive for excellence in all development that arises from the proposals it makes decisions upon.

  • Race and Radicalisation EJ Peatfield University of Liverpool
    Race and Radicalisation E J Peatfield University of Liverpool Race and Radicalisation: Examining Perceptions Of Counter-Radicalisation Policy Amongst Minority Groups in Liverpool 8 and 24. Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Elizabeth-Jane Peatfield February 2017 1 | Page Race and Radicalisation E J Peatfield University of Liverpool Abstract This thesis critically analyses the UK Government’s current counter-radicalisation policy, focusing in particular on groups presented as vulnerable or susceptible to the drivers of radicalisation outlined within the counter-radicalisation policy Prevent (2011). Although there have been a number of studies looking at the effect of counter-radicalisation policy on Muslim communities in Britain, this study is unique in its kind, as it examines the impact of counter-radicalisation policy on non- Muslim minorities. This work draws attention to the linking of terrorism to socio- economically marginalised groups and the concomitant gaze of surveillance or suspicion directed towards those considered risky. Based on the evidence gathered, it is argued that the negative framing of communities based on race and class has linked them to the risk of radicalisation through the construction of counter- radicalisation drivers and vulnerabilities. To explore the intersectionality of race and class with assumptions embedded in counter-radicalisation policy, the research employed both quantitative and qualitative methodology to examinee minority communities in two areas of Liverpool. The research sought to gauge how much non-Muslim minorities knew about Prevent (2011) and the drivers identified in the document, alongside whether they believed they had been affected by counter-radicalisation/terrorism policy.
