| book description |

Housing in the UK and globally has long been an area of central and local government concern, and this reflects its vital importance for both individual and social welfare. Despite increased public expenditure on housing in the post-war years housing remains a major problem area of social and economic policy. While housing standards have risen on average, significant sections of the community continue to endure poor housing conditions and prospects. Originally published in 1979, this study considers the role of public policy in housing, presenting a critical and contemporary account of policies in the late 20th century. The central theme emphasises the importance of extensive local and central government involvement in meeting housing need and ensuring fairness in housing provision. It thus presents an opposing view to those who argue that market forces should have a free rein in shaping housing development.
