How do different stakeholders assess success differently
Different stakeholders
(local and national governments, local businesses and residents)
will assess success using contrasting criteria
depending on the meaning of the place
and the impact of change
on both the reality
and their image of that place
Describe the four stakeholders
- Governance - who implement laws, give power, or ownership to…,
- Influencers – who motivate others to get things done, e.g. individuals, political parties, homeless families
- Providers – who build, or implement projects
- Users – the beneficiaries of a project, who are hopefully different groups, but not necessarily…
What are different measurements of success
Infant mortality
Life expectancy
Assimilation of ethnic communities
Voter turnout
Local community groups and involvement
Deprivation
Local judgements
Planning applications / outcomes
What influences perception of success
Time, integration, environmental quality, age, ethnicity/culture, whereabouts in the city
SO BAISCALLY DIFFERNET SOCIO-CULTURAL PERSPECTIVES
How does time affect view of success
in the long-term, new economic opportunities might result from the changes, but in short-term, people have lost jobs
How does enviro quality affect view of success
Environmental Quality – deindustrialisation creates decline, but might yield regeneration projects to counter job losses
How does integration/age/culture affect view of success
Integration – long-term residents have a different view to newcomers, which might be hard to shift
Age – different people want different things, e.g. leisure
Ethnicity / culture – some culture is more attractive than others
How does whereabouts affect view of success
Whereabouts in the city you live –
- The inner-city is naturally closer to certain jobs / facilities, so university campuses are likely, but manufacturing workers will have lost jobs
- The outer-suburbs naturally closer to green land, but requires private transport / more commuting
