Abstract
This research shows how residents on two traditionally white estates understand their communities. It explores how they participate within them and with agencies and other bodies, with the emphasis on residents’ own views. It considers why, given the partial achievements and commitment to improving the lives of the most excluded social groups, government has been unable to generate sustainable change in such settings.
