Understanding housing policy is an up-to-date text on a rapidly changing policy field written by an author with extensive experience in implementing housing policy.


What are the major housing problems in contemporary Britain? How effective are the policies designed to tackle these problems? These are the central questions this book sets out to answer, using a critical approach to identifying housing problems and the formation of policy.Understanding housing policy is an up-to-date text on a rapidly changing policy field written by an author with extensive experience in implementing housing policy. The second edition of this best-selling text has been completely revised and includes a new chapter on the political processes involved in the construction and delivery of housing policies. In addition, the new edition:
  • reviews theoretical perspectives helpful in understanding the normative dimensions of housing policy;
  • examines explanations of policy development and implementation processes;
  • explores the development of housing policy in the United Kingdom;
  • contains a chapter on comparative housing policy;
  • examines a number of contemporary housing problems: affordability; homelessness; low demand and neighbourhood deprivation; overcrowding; multi-occupation; 'decent' homes and 'sustainable' housing.
  • devotes a chapter to the relationship between housing and social justice;
  • includes an assessment of the impact of New Labour's housing policies and the policy orientation of the Conservative/Liberal Democrat Coalition.

Arvustused

"An excellent historical and theoretical review of housing policy: thoughtful, well informed, critical and up to date." Chris Paris, Professor of Housing Studies, University of Ulster, Northern Ireland "It does such an excellent job of outlining the basic issues that face us in that intransigent and interdisciplinary policy area which is housing policy" Canadian Journal of Urban Research, review of 1st edition "Understanding Housing Policy is an insightful exploration of contemporary housing problems and an excellent introduction to the subject." Social Policy, review of 1st edition "...this is a refreshing and different contribution to the literature. It clearly will prove of considerable value as an introductory text book and it maybe more accessible to undergraduates than the other books available are." Housing Studies Association Newsletter, review of 1st edition "Should be on the bookshelf of anyone, novice or veteran, interested in UK housing policy, and will be essential for undergraduate and graduate students specialising in the area." --Housing Studies journal
