People, place and politics: The anatomy of dispossession in the geography of Ray Hudson
本文回顾了与雷·哈德森35年的友谊与合作，聚焦他对英格兰东北部国家调控去工业化的研究，该过程威胁到当地社会政治结构，并关联到脱欧公投与英国独立党支持率上升。
This article reflects on my 35 years of friendship and collaboration with Ray Hudson. It focusses on his studies of the north east of England and the processes of state-regulated deindustrialisation that have threatened to transform its social and political fabric. The area was once identified with the heartland of “Labourism” – a commitment to the gradual reform of capitalism through local and national government intervention. Hudson’s work has tracked the failure of this approach and now reflects on the consequences as seen inter alia in the vote for Brexit and the growing support for the UK Independence Party.
