Product Description

"Housing Policy in the UK" is a major new textbook that traces the emergence of a 'new comprehensive housing policy' in the wake of the Communities Plan and regionalisation. It provides a clear account of the evolution and current dimensions and tensions at the heart of this policy and the limits to the ability of the state to steer private institutions and to influence market processes. This account is grounded in leading edge research, a succinct history, an analysis of the main tenures, the links between housing, other public policies and management reforms, and the impact on place and people. "Housing Policy in the UK" is a successor to the successful text "Housing Policy and Practice" by Peter Malpass and Alan Murie, but adopts a new framework for the selection of material that is historically grounded, contemporary and thematic.
