Relatively little research has explored whether there is a systemic urban-rural divide in the political and
socioeconomic attitudes of citizens across Europe. Drawing on individual-level data from the European Social
Survey, Dr Davide Luca and his co-author Prof. Michael Kenny argue that there are strong and significant
differences between the populations in these different settings, especially across western European countries.
The presentation will suggest that this divide is a continuum, running on a gradient from inner cities to
suburbs, towns, and the countryside. The differences are explained by both composition and contextual effects,
and underscore how a firmer appreciation of the urban rural divide is integral to future place-based policy responses.
