126 Domesday reloaded: How Britain has changed

Fri, 27 Jan 2012 12:00:30 +0000

Documentary (27/01/2012 BBC Radio 4): As we reach the end of the Domesday Reloaded project, Prof Danny Dorling compares the 2011 and 1986 views of the UK to give a unique insight into how the country has changed in the last 25 years.
Since March 27th 2011, the public have been updating a repository of 24,000 photographs, taken for the BBC's Domesday project in 1986. Danny picks four areas in which to explore the transformations of the UK. He visits these places and talks to the individuals who have updated the squares about their lives and experience of the way that their locality has changed.
One theme Danny explores is the disappearance of an industrial landscape since the 1980s. He looks at Sheffield, where he is Professor of Human Geography, to explore how this once steel town has benefitted from the expansion of higher education to become a centre of student life.
He also looks at aspects of life that haven't changed in a quarter of a century, such as the pantomime in the Scottish village of Buchlyvie. The residents were keen contributors to the 1986 Domesday project and they have updated their square in 2011.
Producer: Alex Mansfield.

123 The Wealth Gap (Part 2)

Tue, 17 Jan 2012 13:00:12 +0000

Part 2 of the BBC Documentary 'The Wealth Gap: The View from London' (17 & 23/01/2012)
As protests around the world now regularly remind us, the gap between the super-rich and the rest of us has been growing sharply. Whether in developed nations such as Britain and America, or newly-emerging powers such as China, Brazil and South Africa, statistics show an increasing share of income and wealth to be held by an ever-narrower elite. Michael Robinson examines this global phenomenon through its effects on London - one of the worldís most-international cities and a magnet for many of the wealthiest people. As the rich have got richer, there have been many London beneficiaries. While in most of Britain, property prices have been falling, the owners of prime London property have seen the value of their homes soar as the new elite spends billions buying themselves homes in the city. And, while most of Britain struggles to survive in the economic downturn, the professional advisers, top restaurants, and sellers of luxury goods serving the new super-class, have been enjoying a bonanza. But, as the wealth gap has gone on widening, plenty of Londoners see themselves as losers, increasingly excluded from the basics of life: a good job, an affordable place to live, and a chance to make their own way in the world.

122 The Wealth Gap (Part 1)

Tue, 17 Jan 2012 12:00:09 +0000

Part 1 of the BBC Documentary 'The Wealth Gap: The View from London' (17 & 23/01/2012): As protests around the world now regularly remind us, the gap between the super-rich and the rest of us has been growing sharply. Whether in developed nations such as Britain and America, or newly-emerging powers such as China, Brazil and South Africa, statistics show an increasing share of income and wealth to be held by an ever-narrower elite. Michael Robinson examines this global phenomenon through its effects on London - one of the worldís most-international cities and a magnet for many of the wealthiest people. As the rich have got richer, there have been many London beneficiaries. While in most of Britain, property prices have been falling, the owners of prime London property have seen the value of their homes soar as the new elite spends billions buying themselves homes in the city. And, while most of Britain struggles to survive in the economic downturn, the professional advisers, top restaurants, and sellers of luxury goods serving the new super-class, have been enjoying a bonanza. But, as the wealth gap has gone on widening, plenty of Londoners see themselves as losers, increasingly excluded from the basics of life: a good job, an affordable place to live, and a chance to make their own way in the world.

098 We have enough space for the needs of all but not for the greed of a few

Thu, 26 May 2011 13:00:01 +0100

Talk by Danny Dorling speaking at the Population Footprints Symposium, London.
May 26th, 2011.
Abstract: In this talk I argue that we are living in remarkable times, worldwide inequalities in income and wealth have never been greater, but there are also reasons to b optimistic for the future. The average family in the world consists of a couple and three children. As fertility rates continue to decline those children are currently expected to each, on average, have only two children. Within the lifetimes of most people on earth total human numbers are about to stop rising. If this occurs then, as far as I am aware, it will be the first time ever that human numbers have fallen worldwide not due to conquest, war, famine or epidemic. The main threat to this scenario would be a reversal of women winning greater human rights and that appears unlikely. However, controlling population numbers has very little effect on consumption because there are such vast differences in the resources consumed by different social groups across the planet. The groups that are currently shrinking fastest in size are consuming by far the most.
One response to this has been to suggest that migration be curtailed to prevent people flowing towards countries where populations are currently aging. In this talk I would like to suggest that a better response would be to realise that we are living in times when what was recently thought impossible has become possible. Global apartheid is no long term solution. Instead, compare affluent countries to search for practical clues on where affluent people already consume less. In more unequal affluent countries everyone consumes more, both rich and poor. The poor get into ever greater debt and the rich do not become happier despite huge consumption. Geographical comparisons suggest that inequality may be a key factor, but necessity also matters in understanding greed, conservation and space.

Mon, 22 Jun 2009 20:00:05 +0100

Danny Dorling on Analysis: Doesn't Everyone? BBC Radio 4, on group-think and MPs expenses.
Michael Blastland asks if 'group-think' is distancing policy from the public and asks if our political elite have forgotten how most voters live. People measure their behaviour and beliefs by those around them, so MPs might have thought that the expenses system was reasonable. Might it also mean they have lost touch with what Britain is really like?

002 The Supercity and its Shadow

Mon, 28 Feb 2005 20:00:34 +0000

Move the British capital to Yorkshire? That was one of the options debated in the 1960s in order to try and reduce London's domination of the UK. Sharing population and economic power across the country is something politicians have often talked about. But this programme explains how government has in fact been much more successful at creating a super-region in the south of England with London at its centre. The pull of London as global city and capital of everything from government to media to fashion has intensified. Negative images of the north have deterred any fundamental shift of people and power in its direction. So was this inevitable or could things have been different? A program from From the series 'Why did we do that?'. More information on the BBC website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/history/why_did_we_do_that.shtml
