Living conditions in Germany today show evidence of increasing and rapidly changing regional disparities in structural, demographic and economic domains. These disparities often take the form of an adverse access to health care facilities, childcare provision, education and other public services as well as regional labour market opportunities, business climate, housing and transportation infrastructures.
The Leibniz ScienceCampus SOEP-RegioHub “Regional Development Dynamics and their Social, Economic, and Political Consequences” investigates how these regional social and economic opportunities influence social cohesion, expectations, political attitudes, preferences and behavior and thereby exacerbate or mitigate social inequality, social cohesion, political conflicts and radicalization.

The theory class will provide an extensive overview about different theoretical perspectives on regional development dynamics and their political consequences in Germany. This includes health science, economics, sociology and psychology. In addition, the different research projects of the ScienceCampus SOEP-RegioHub will introduces themselves.
