SERC: Spatial Economics Research Centre: City Devolution

http://spatial-economics.blogspot.com/2015/05/city-devolution.html

Thursday, 28 May 2015. Posted by Prof Henry G. Overman. Following the Queen's speech my twitter feed is full of people expressing views for or against devolution to cities. Supporters push for maximum devolution. To boost growth and productivity, improve efficiency in local government and build the northern powerhouse. Critics suggest the main attractions lie elsewhere - for example. But the proper goal of restructuring the public sector cannot simply be decentralisation. The public sector [.] co...For e...

Friday, 22 May 2015. Are they Green *Belts* by Accident? Posted by Paul Cheshire, LSE and SERC. We Brits are a self-satisfied lot, and seem to assume that Green Belts are a splendid British invention and a wonderful boon to the world. A signal of our praiseworthy efforts to protect the green: whether the village green or the environment: never a signal of our nostalgic hankerings for a rural England which never existed.

SERC: Spatial Economics Research Centre: August 2014

http://spatial-economics.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html

Thursday, 21 August 2014. Foreign buyers and property markets. Posted by Prof Henry G. Overman]. In May last year, I did some back of the envelope numbers on the role of foreign buyers in driving the London property market. On the basis of a very quick calculation I concluded that "domestic sources of demand (including from first time buyers) are much more important in understanding the overall London property market than a small number of rich foreigners.". Prof Henry G. Overman. Tuesday, 5 August 2014.
