新自由主义政治和政策兴起的一个关键特征是风险从公司和民族国家逐步转移到地方政府、个人和家庭。在这篇文章中,我们认为,在英国,“巨大的风险转移”不仅加剧了经济衰退和紧缩,但也已被标记的风险和不安全的重新分配的不均衡跨规模和地方,以及不同类型的家庭之间。为了捕捉不同的性质的经验和影响的衰退,风险和不安全,本文首先考虑的空间和时间动态的衰退和巨大的风险转移。然后,它继续本地化和嵌入这些动态的城市地区和地方当局的布里斯托和利物浦,利用定量调查的1,013个家庭,在一系列不同的家庭类型。调查按地理和10种不同的家庭类型使用Ipsos-MORI(ACORN)的住宅区分类进行了细分。虽然不断演变的危机和随后的紧缩措施一直是城市、地方政府和家庭的“移动目标”,但2011年冬季在两个城市地区进行了家庭调查,探讨了自2008年以来的经验和影响。它将试图展示这一时期“风险转移”的性质、影响和“生活经验”,并考虑对家庭、国家和地方决策者的持续和更广泛的影响。
A key feature of the rise of neoliberal politics and policy has been the progressive shift of risk from corporations and national states to the local government, individuals and households. In this article, we argue that, in the UK, ‘great risk shift’ has not only been intensified by recession and austerity but has also been marked by the unevenness of the redistribution of risk and insecurity across scales and places, and between different types of household. In order to capture the differentiated nature of experiences and impacts of recession, risk and insecurity, this article first considers the spatial and temporal dynamics of recession and the great risk shift. It then goes on to localise and embed these dynamics within the city regions and local authorities of Bristol and Liverpool, drawing on a quantitative survey of 1,013 households, across a range of different household types. The survey was segmented geographically and by ten different household types using Ipsos-MORI’s (ACORN) classification of residential neighbourhoods. Whilst the evolving crisis and subsequent austerity measure have been a ‘moving target’ for cities, the local government and households, the household survey was undertaken in the two city regions in the winter of 2011 and explored experiences and impacts since 2008. It will seek to demonstrate the nature, impact and ‘lived experience’ of the ‘risk shift’ during this period and consider the ongoing and broader implications for households, and national and local policymakers.
