Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: East Manchester has been the site of one of the most substantial regeneration projects internationally. The initiative in east Manchester confirmed the tag that the city is the ‘regeneration capital’ of the United Kingdom. While the book focuses on a single project, it has wider relevance to national and international regeneration initiatives. The book assesses the outcomes of the regeneration, although it demonstrates the difficulties in producing a definitive evaluation. It has a political focus and illuminates and challenges many assumptions underpinning three major current academic debates: governance, participatory democracy and ideology. The book is relevant to students of politics, geography, sociology, public administration and recent history but will also interest practitioners, academics and general readers interested in urban regeneration. Mancunians will also be fascinated by the rapidly changing face and character of their city as will those with an interest in Manchester’s football, the Commonwealth Games and Sportcity.

Book excerpt: East Manchester was the site of one of the most substantial regeneration projects internationally. Urban regeneration was a central plank of New Labour policy and the approach radically altered with the election of the Coalition Government in 2010. East Manchester was one of the most deprived areas of Britain in 1997, referred to as a `basket case' in dire need of regeneration. This book explores the role of Manchester City Council and other public agencies in the regeneration of the area.--Résumé de l'éditeur.

Book excerpt: A new book has been published to mark the end of the New Deal for Communities programme in east Manchester.Reclaiming East Manchester: Ten years of resident-led regeneration is by photographer and writer Len Grant, who was commissioned back in 2008 to produce a book to chart the development of the area during the decade-long NDC programme. I initially assumed the book would be heavily PR-y, but I was pleasantly surprised. Through a fairly impressive portfolio of photographs as well as interviews with regeneration professionals who were involved in the work and dozens of residents, Grant documents what east Manchester was like to live in before the NDC programme began, key events in the history of the scheme, problems that were encountered and how residents feel about the area now.
