This might be the everyday meanings that humans attach to places bound up with a sense of identity and belonging. It also extends to ways that meanings of place might be created, such as through place making and marketing. Representations of places are important because of the way in which they shape peoples' actions and behaviours, and those of businesses, institutions and governments. Representations also provide a reference point for people's sense of identity, underpinning their attachments to place, particularly in times of change. Attention to meaning highlights the processes of representation through which places are depicted, variously by external agencies and by those who live in them. The meanings and identities ascribed to a place may also be related to its function, both social and economic, in the present and in the past. Places can have multiple meanings and identities, reflecting different perceptions and perspectives. Students should select one of the following topics through which to address the concepts of meaning and representation as applied to place: Place making and marketing, drawing on examples such as regional development agencies, tourist marketing, and property marketing materials.

  • Finding a New Folk Devil:(Mis) Constructing Anti-Capitalist Activists March, 2002
    Working Paper Series Paper 24 Finding a new folk devil: (mis)constructing anti-capitalist activists March, 2002 Fiona Donson, Graeme Chesters, Andy Tickle and Ian Welsh ISBN 1 872330 65 7 1 Finding a new folk devil: (mis)constructing anti-capitalist activists Fiona Donson, Graeme Chesters, Andy Tickle and Ian Welsh “Their aim is clear. They want a violent and bloody conflagration on the streets. They want to … cause anarchy.”1 Abstract The paper will offer an account of how political activists are (mis)constructed as “folk devils” through an examination of recent media coverage in the UK and Czech Republic. It will seek to show how their construction as violent criminals and dangerous anarchists has influenced the treatment of those involved in protests by public authorities in the UK and Prague. The paper will also offer, in juxtaposition to this representation of the current anti-capitalism movement, a discussion of the accounts of activists themselves. In particular it examines the activists’ own perceptions of their engagement in the global social movement against capitalism. The paper is based on evidence derived from preliminary findings from interdisciplinary research into global social movements, and in particular the protests against the International Monetary Fund and World Bank in Prague in September 2000. 1 The Telegraph, 18/2/01 2 Introduction This paper argues that we are currently witnessing the development of a new type of folk devil. The discussion will consider this claim both in terms of the construction of political activists as a deviant group and the consequences which flow from that construction.

As a cooperative council, we wanted to give local people more involvement in and control of the places where they live. Consequently, the draft SPD taken out to consultation was the result of a co- drafting process, further detail of which is in the Consultation Statement that accompanied the draft SPD (available to view online at www.futurebrixton.org). Engagement objectives 1. To engage community and business organisations in order to coproduce the draft SPD and consultation on it. 2. To agree on shared principles that will determine what type of development we want to see in the area. 3. To proactively consult with the whole community on the draft SPD 4. To facilitate a partnership approach to the regeneration of Brixton The development of the SPD has complied with Town and Country Planning (Local Development) (England) Regulations 2012 and with the additional recommendations set out in Lambeth’s Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) adopted in April 2008, and our cooperative ethos to ensure that the SPD is a reflection of the community’s aspirations for the area.
