Measuring Social Sustainability: A Community-Centred Approach (2012, background): “…weak definitions of sustainability (Atkinson 2000); between top–down (expert-driven) and bottom–up (community-driven) indicator development (Fraser et al. 2006); and between economic, ecological and holistic or indexical approaches towards measurement (Bramley and Power 2009; Singh et al. 2009).”
Social Sustainability and Urban Form: Evidence from Five British Cities (2009, methodology): “Following reviews of the issue, based on both academic and policy literature (Bramley and Power, 2009; Bramley et al, 2006; Dempsey et al, 2009), we propose that `social sustainability' should be seen as comprising two main dimensions.”
The social dimension of sustainable development: Defining urban social sustainability (2011, background): “These dimensions relate to collective aspects of everyday life and are appropriate and meaningful concepts at the neighbourhood scale; crucially, for the purposes of this paper, there are claimed associations between them and features of the built environment (Bramley and Power, 2009).”
Does urban form matter for innovation productivity? A national multi-level study of the association between neighbourhood innovation capacity and urban sprawl (2019, background): “The existing literature also suggests that sprawling regions discourage tolerance and diversity and, in contrast, promote segregation (Bramley and Power, 2009; Margo, 1992).”
