The debate about the economic impact of decentralization has been misguided.
It should not be about whether more #decentralization is needed, but about whether the resources subnational #governments have suffice for the responsibilities they face.

Extremely honoured to have been awarded the 2020 Best Paper prize in @RegionalStudies.
Very grateful to the editors, for their trust in my research, and to my co-authors @DijkstraLewis & Hugo Poelman, without whom this award would have been impossible.

Increasingly our social and economic future depends on #cities, but, in order to truly understand and improve cities, we need to have far better and more homogeneous definitions and measurements of what cities are. @DijkstraLewis at #ersa2019Lyon
A thwarted no-deal by UK Parl. + anticipated elections perfect scenario for @BorisJohnson: he gets another chance to campaign as fact-free clown rather than irresponsible kamikaze. My column today in @nrc (in Dutch). Tnx @fotoole.

We had another message for the #TourdeFrance in Brussels yesterday, one for which we needed the cameraman in the heli. Alas, this one didn't make it past the censor 😅. #GrandDepartBxl#tourdeforce
Great graphics. US Democrats have gone from being a center-right to a center-left party; the GOP from a right-wing party to an extreme right-wing party, closer to Germany's neo-Nazis than to the global center. https://t.co/srI5taGFCS

Le clivage villes-campagnes n’est pas le seul critère du #vote anti-européen. Ce sont les territoires en déclin, notamment ceux qui ont subi un long déclin industriel qui se révèlent les plus #eurosceptiques@lemondefr
