Peter Bradwell is a researcher at Demos. He joined in February 2006.
Current work
Peter's research is focused on the way information and knowledge is shared between people, and between people and government. He also researches digital identity, online culture, copyright and intellectual property.
He is working on a project exploring the aspirations of geographical Europe's youngest generation, focusing in particular on the way they make and exchange new-media with one another.
With Duncan O'Leary he is researching how social networks impact upon organisations and formal organisational structures.
He is working on how people value personal information, and the implications of an increasing use of and reliance on it. Following the FYI personal information project, he is starting a new project looking at how the public can drive personal information policy and shape how identity technologies work. You can read a proposal here. He is interested in the way that these issues suggest there have been some important changes to how privacy is valued.
Peter also works on Demos' podcasts and other audio-visual outputs.
He has worked with a variety of partners including the European Cultural Foundation; O2; Cambridge Assessment; Play England; BT; and PricewaterhouseCoopers.
Publications
Co-authored the report Making the most of collaboration: an international survey of co-design, a discussion paper on the state of play in public service collaborative design across the globe.
Co-authored FYI: the new politics of personal information, a report about how and why people's personal information is so important. It looks at why it has become so fundamental to our everyday lives, and how and why people need to regain control over what others know about them. You can watch a video that explains the issues behind the research here.
Co-authored Seen and Heard: Reclaiming the public realm with children and young people, (2007) which looks at how children and young people have been excluded from places such as town centres, parks and housing developments. You can hear a podcast with the authors of the pamphlet here.
Co-wrote, with Sam Jones, the pamphlet As You Like It, which looks at what Global English means and how the UK can respond.
Co-authored the report Future Planners: Propositions for the next age of planning, and 'The Plan is Dead; Long Live the Planner' with Indy Johar for John Craig's 'Production Values' pamphlet.
Peter holds a Masters with distinction in Critical Theory and Politics from the University of Nottingham, and previously worked at the Campaign for Freedom of Information.
