The Territorial Politics research group explores the distribution of power and power relations between territorial communities and governments within the state. A focus of our research is on understanding the development of multi-level government, between the local, regional, national and supranational levels, and its implications for public policy, citizenship and inter-governmental relations. We are also concerned with examining territorial identity and its political expression in the politics of nationalism and regionalism. Much of our research seeks to understand UK territorial politics within a broader comparative context.
