Geography matters in public spending: local, national, international
- Abstract:
- Danny Dorling, the 1971 Professor of Geography at the University of Oxford, examines how geography shapes patterns of public spending and political choice from the local level in England to international comparisons across Europe and the United States. Drawing on evidence from infant mortality, voting behaviour and regional inequality, he argues that where people live increasingly determines both the quality of public services they receive and the kind of society they collectively choose to create.
