Failing Neoliberalism: Danny Dorling on how the UK changed from a shining example to a failing state

What happened to Britain – and could the same downward spiral from prosperity, innovation and equality to huge inequality happen in countries like the Netherlands, too?

This is an audio-only recording of a talk given by Professor Danny Dorling (University of Oxford) at the Rudolf Agricola School for Sustainable Development, University of Groningen, the Netherlands on 19 December 2023. Includes a Q&A at the conclusion of the lecture, where audience members pose questions including, “How much equality is enough?”

This lecture draws on Professor Dorling's published work, including his most recent book, Shattered Nation: Inequality and the Geography of a Failing State.
