摘要

尽管自2016年以来,英国退出欧盟(“脱欧”)以几乎所有其他国内问题为代价,压倒性地主导了国家政治话语,但这一进程之后的政策议程正在开始出现。本文研究了这一议程,表面上支持一个“升级”计划,该计划回应了英国退欧的根本原因。在此过程中,我们考虑了英国政府提出的资金流——即城镇基金、共享繁荣基金和升级基金——并检查了这些言论在多大程度上符合其分配的现实。在此过程中,我们还考虑了这些计划如何(如果有的话)与它们打算取代的欧洲结构投资基金(ESIF)相对应。本文考察了这一时期的变化,以考虑英国脱欧进程如何反映并实际上巩固了这些不平衡发展的进程。我们发现,早期迹象表明,英国政府正在以一种可能忽视符合技术资助标准的地方的方式进行资金分配,因此表明政治偏袒在起作用。

Levelling Up and The Privileging of sub-national governance in England in the inter-Brexit space
Abstract Although the UK’s exit from the European Union – ‘Brexit’ – has overwhelmingly dominated the national political discourse since 2016 to the expense of nearly every other domestic issue, the policy agenda in the wake of this process is beginning to emerge. This paper examines this agenda, ostensibly supporting a programme of ‘levelling up’ which responds to the perceived root-causes of Brexit. In doing so, we consider the funding streams proposed by the UK Government – namely the Towns Fund, Shared Prosperity Fund and Levelling Up Funds – and examine the extent to which the rhetoric aligns with the reality of their allocation. In doing so, we also consider how, if at all, these schemes correspond to the European Structural Investment Funds (ESIF) they are intended to replace. This paper examines this period of change to consider how the Brexit process is mirroring, and indeed entrenching, these processes of uneven development. We find that the early indications suggest that the UK government is proceeding with funding allocations in a way which can overlook places which meet the technical funding criteria, and therefore indicates political favouring is at play.
