Reviews
"The findings of this excellent research team regarding the political and economic impacts in the North East will chime with practitioners in other social contexts." Paul Norman, University of Leeds
"The combination of an interdisciplinary lens and quantitative and qualitative data creates a much needed but shocking depiction of the impacts of austerity on social and health inequalities at a local level. The book illuminates how austerity as a political discourse is being used to justify deeply pernicious and deliberate shredding of the public welfare fabric." Jennie Popay, Lancaster University
