Dr Philip Catney (Keele European Parties Research Unit) gave a guest lecture to the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment (the government's advisor on architecture, urban design and public space) on localism strategies and how these connect with promoting high quality places. With the language of localism being used by all three main political parties in the general election, Dr Catney's presentation outlined alternative models of decentralisation and localism, analysing the opportunities and limitations of each of these, concluding with an assessment of the prospects for localism in the next few years.
