What is Housing and Social Policy: Contemporary Themes and Critical Perspectives (Housing and Society Series) about?

This topical book transforms the analysis of housing problems into a lively, interesting and contentious subject of social scientific study, addressing themes of residential experience, inclusion/empowerment, sustainability and professionalism/managerialism, which lie at the heart of the housing and social policy debate. Each chapter considers a specific social category - such as class, gender, or disability - and evaluates the experience and understanding of housing and social policy under this category. With innovative approaches to conceptualising housing and a clear, defined structure, Housing and Social Policy encourages students and practitioners in both arenas to think reflexively about housing as a central instrument of social policy and social experience. Review 'This engaging collection ... challenges housing policy makers, practitioners and academics to engage with these debates and offer their own perspective and solutions.'  – John Flint, Sheffield Hallam University, UK Agriculture Geography & Environmental Sciences Agriculture, Geography & Environmental Sciences Book Cover 1 Title 4 Copyright 5 Contents 6 Contributors 8 1 Introduction 10 2 What has the state ever
