  2. Part-done

  3. Causes of movements Since 1980?

  4. What changes are occurring in the inner city? • Gentrification- people moving back into the inner city as previously industrial buildings are converted into residential property- remember I talked about London Docklands…

  5. Growth of FOOTLOOSE INDUSTRIES- there has been a move away from manufacturing (secondary industry) towards service based employment (tertiary industry). • These are said to be “footloose” as they can locate anywhere outside cities that has good transport and communication links. • The UK has many ‘science parks’, build on the urban periphery…

  6. What features of this location has led to the industry locating here, and not in the city centre? Think about land costs, transport, access…

  7. What is deprivation? Come up with 4 INDICATORS (ways of proving deprivation). Describe a slum. Are they the same across the world? Do they vary (quality, size, location)? Why? Weigh up the positive and negative aspects of living in a slum. All on P296 of Oxford Course Companion.
