The redrawing of social inequalities across Europe during the last few years includes both a retrenchment of longstanding inequalities among countries, and the emergence of new disadvantages, together with an erosion of the status and protections previously enjoyed by most citizens within them. This is particularly prominent from a geographical perspective as spatial inequality grows within regions. Despite overall country level economic growth, certain regions are experiencing long-term socioeconomic stagnation or decline. These areas have been often characterised as 'left-behind'. Yet, little is known of what drives ‘left-behindness’. EXIT will provide an in-depth analysis of ‘left-behind’ as a concept used for characterising territorial inequalities faced by certain areas and, grounded on this, identify strategies to address it. This means not only building knowledge on the drivers of inequality in areas that are characterised as ‘left-behind’, but also on what drives political, media and academic characterisations of these areas as ‘left-behind’ and experiences and perceptions of being ‘left-behind’ among inhabitants of areas experiencing socioeconomic stagnation or decline. To answer these questions, EXIT proposes a bottom-up, interdisciplinary and mixed-methods research with a community-based and intersectional approach from the analysis to the transferability of practices. Addressing how different axes of inequality intersect in perceptions and experiences of ‘left-behindness’ is crucial to understand the gap between the development of policies to redress territorial inequalities and their impact on the ground. In this regard, EXIT proposes to take a place-based approach to delineate the role of different forces, and how they interplay to produce uneven effects among communities.

在过去几年里，欧洲各地社会不平等的重新划分包括各国之间长期存在的不平等的缩小，以及新的不利条件的出现，以及大多数公民以前享有的地位和保护的侵蚀。从地理角度来看，这一点尤其突出，因为区域内的空间不平等现象日益严重。尽管国家一级总体经济增长，但某些地区正在经历长期的社会经济停滞或衰退。这些地区经常被称为“落后地区”。然而，人们对“左后”的驱动力知之甚少。EXIT将深入分析“留守”这一概念，并以此为基础，确定解决这一问题的战略。这意味着不仅要了解“留守”地区不平等的驱动因素，还要了解政治、经济和社会不平等的驱动因素。媒体和学术界将这些地区定性为“留守”地区，以及经历社会经济停滞或衰退地区的居民对“留守”的经历和看法。为了回答这些问题，EXIT提出了一个自下而上，跨学科和混合方法的研究，以社区为基础，从分析到实践的可转移性的交叉方法。解决不同的不平等轴心如何在“落后”的观念和经验中相互交织，对于理解制定纠正地区不平等的政策与这些政策对当地的影响之间的差距至关重要。在这方面，EXIT建议采取一种基于地点的方法来界定不同力量的作用，以及它们如何相互作用，在社区之间产生不均衡的影响。
