Research
My research is concerned with the political economy of production and reproduction of people within localities and regions. I have also written extensively on abstract-theoretical and political topics, including the relations between social processes and space, the relations between state and society, models of economic and industrial organisation, and the nature of neoliberalism.
I would like to get any comments and criticisms you have of my publications. Please email me at adamgough@clara.co.uk, with a subject line such as ‘Comment on your work’. Thanks!
