The concluding chapter examines new policy ideas in the context of theoretical approaches to understanding housing policy: laissez-faire economics; social reformism; Marxist political economy; behavioural perspectives and social constructionism. Throughout the textbook, substantive themes are illustrated by boxed examples and case studies.
The author focuses on principles and theory and their application in the process of constructing housing policy, ensuring that the book will be a vital resource for undergraduate and postgraduate level students of housing and planning and related social policy modules.
Reviews / Votes
"Understanding Housing Policy is an insightful exploration of contemporary housing problems and an excellent introduction to the subject." Social Policy, Vol. 36 (4) - 2007 "...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, Issue 1, 2007 "An excellent historical and theoretical review of housing policy: thoughtful, well informed, critical and up to date."
