Comparative Housing Policy

Reviews / Votes

'This book makes a considerable contribution to the growing literature on comparative housing. It deals with how the governments of industrialised countries have become involved in the development of housing policy and practice and it goes beyond merely describing what governments have done by providing insights into how state action in the field of housing informs theoretical and policy debates.' - Local Government Studies 'At last, a text on comparative housing that I can recommend to students to actually read, and as a source of analytical ideas and themes...This book is a most welcome change...' - Environment and Planning C: Government and Policy 'This is an excellent book that can be highly recommended for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in housing policy - and not merely for courses that have a comparative focus.' - Social Policy
