Danny Dorling

    Danny Dorling ist ein britischer Sozialgeograph, der sich kritisch mit Ungleichheit und Humangeographie auseinandersetzt. Seine Arbeit konzentriert sich auf Themen wie Wohnen, Gesundheit, Beschäftigung, Bildung und Armut und versucht, eine Ethik des Spiels als Lernen für das Leben beizubehalten, die durch frühe Erfahrungen geprägt ist. Seine umfangreichen Veröffentlichungen zu sozialen Ungleichheiten, die oft frei zugänglich sind, untersuchen globale Perspektiven und zielen darauf ab, engstirnige Ansichten zu überwinden und zugängliche Forschung über gesellschaftliche Disparitäten zu fördern.

      Although economic inequality provokes widespread disquiet, its supposed necessity is rarely questioned. At best, a basic level of inequality is seen as a necessary evil. At worst, it is seen as insufficient to encourage aspiration, hard work and investment a refrain sometimes used to advocate ever greater inequality.

      The authors argue that the vote to leave the EU was the last gasp of the old empire working its way out of the British psyche. Fueled by a misplaced nostalgia, the result was driven by a lack of knowledge of Britain's imperial history, by a profound anxiety about Britain's status today, and by a deeply unrealistic vision of the future.
