"Since completing my PhD in 1999, including a one year career break volunteering in Mexico between 2002-03, I have won research grants totalling almost £340,000 (including 2 ESRC grants both in excess of £120,000) published 20 peer reviewed journal articles and completed five books. My work focuses on three significant themes: processes of urban change and regeneration policy, alternative models for organising social and economic life, and sustainable and international development - with a focus on the Argentinan popular rebellion and the Zapatista uprising in Mexico.
"My Ph.D. research examined the cultural impacts of universities in their urban settings. In subsequent post doctoral work I further explored the impacts of universities on their local communities. This led me to an ESRC award which focused upon the growing evening or night-time economy in cities which developed a socio-spatial, and political-economy informed, analysis of the production, regulation and consumption of urban nightlife. Research with various users of the night time economy were undertaken in 6 cities (3 UK and 3 overseas), with findings revealing more segmented consumer patterns, greater influence from corporate developers, and more systematic surveillance."
