  • Cornishness and Englishness: Nested Identities Or Incompatible Ideologies?
    CORNISHNESS AND ENGLISHNESS: NESTED IDENTITIES OR INCOMPATIBLE IDEOLOGIES? Bernard Deacon (International Journal of Regional and Local History 5.2 (2009), pp.9-29) In 2007 I suggested in the pages of this journal that the history of English regional identities may prove to be ‘in practice elusive and insubstantial’.1 Not long after those words were written a history of the north east of England was published by its Centre for Regional History. Pursuing the question of whether the north east was a coherent and self-conscious region over the longue durée, the editors found a ‘very fragile history of an incoherent and barely self-conscious region’ with a sense of regional identity that only really appeared in the second half of the twentieth century.2 If the north east, widely regarded as the most coherent English region, lacks a historical identity then it is likely to be even more illusory in other regions. Although rigorously testing the past existence of a regional discourse and finding it wanting, Green and Pollard’s book also reminds us that history is not just about scientific accounts of the past. They recognise that history itself is ‘an important element in the construction of the region … Memory of the past is deployed, selectively and creatively, as one means of imagining it … We choose the history we want, to show the kind of region we want to be’.3 In the north east that choice has seemingly crystallised around a narrative of industrialization focused on the coalfield and the gradual imposition of a Tyneside hegemony over the centuries following 1650.

  • A New Geography of Local Government in Cornwall
    Centre for Geography and Environmental Science A new geography of local government: The changing role of Town and Parish Councils in Cornwall, UK JUNE 2019 Jane Wills June 2 Localism and the role of Town and Parish Councils in Cornwall INTRODUCTION This report summarises research that has been undertaken as part of a larger project led by Locality, the national network of community organisations. It comprises material that forms part of phase two of the work undertaken for Locality’s Commission on the Future of Localism. The Commission has gathered evidence and ideas about efforts to engage local people in decision making and to strengthen community, and the challenges faced in realising these ambitions. Locality published the first round of findings in a report entitled People Power in early 2018 (Locality, 2018a). This report highlighted the need for greater thought and more focused action in relation to developing and supporting local institutions, fostering better relationships and building local capacity, in order to unlock the ‘power of community’. Building on the ideas developed in that report, phase two of the Commission’s work has involved action research with four local authorities (Cornwall, Southwark, Stevenage and Wigan) to explore the importance of geo-institutional inheritance and culture, local experiences, and the outcomes of efforts to foster localism. A report that draws on the learning from all four cases will be published late in 2019. This report focuses solely on the findings from the research undertaken with Town and Parish Councils (TPCs) in Cornwall. Conducted in late 2018 and early 2019, the author interviewed 27 individuals in 18 separate interviews, including representatives from 11 TPCs as well as the County Officer of Cornwall’s Association of Local Councils (CALC).
