Project overview

'Learning to Live with Risk and Responsibility: Understanding Popular Responses to 网络彩票APP下载_澳客彩票网-官方游戏,' is a research project led by Nick Clarke in collaboration with Clive Barnett. The project is funded by the the British Academy Special Research Grants: Covid-19 Scheme (Grant No. COV19\200422), and will run from 2020 to 2023.

The project investigates how people in the UK have negotiated the myriad demands made upon them during the 网络彩票APP下载_澳客彩票网-官方游戏, pandemic to act responsibly in novel ways because of the risks their behaviour poses to themselves and others, and due to their role in complex chains of causation. Making use of contemporaneous qualitative data available through the Mass Observation Archive, we seek to develop a better understanding of how people interpreted conflicting demands to act responsibly in relation to 网络彩票APP下载_澳客彩票网-官方游戏, and translated them into practices of everyday life.

Research interests

  • I research the political geographies of governance and citizenship, with a focus on three main areas:
  • 1) Innovative responses to globalisation (2004-present)
  • This research has been funded by grants from the Nuffield Foundation and the Local Government Alliance for International Development. On global citizenship, I’ve published three articles on mobile transnational citizens. On ethical consumption, my co-authored book,?Globalising Responsibility, approached ethical consumption as a platform for campaigning by social movement organisations. On interurban partnerships, I’ve published five articles on town twinning, comparative urbanism, and urban policy mobilities.
