Regeneration beyond austerity: A collective viewpoint.

This collective viewpoint concludes the special issue investigating austerity era regeneration by weaving different threads from each published article together with further insights. It is a collaborative effort -- a synthesis of some diverse views and opinions -- that seeks to extract some key themes, trends and possibilities relating to regeneration beyond austerity. Despite some significant concerns, the broader 'regeneration project' continues in distinct ways and at different paces. Through this paper, the authors attempt to stimulate debate concerning the evolution and recasting of regeneration over future years. It is hoped that this may lay some of the foundations for a new, more positive and progressive regeneration narrative, grounded in micro-practices and the particularities of place.
