Description
The provision and management of social housing for those who are unable to access the housing market is essential to the maintenance of
the fabric of society. The social housing industry is vast and still growing. There are very few countries in the world where some form
of subsidised housing does not exist, and the total number of social homes is likely to grow worldwide, as are the challenges of the
sector.
Paul Reeves takes a people-centred approach to the subject, describing the themes that have run through provision of social
housing from the first philanthropic industrialists in the 19th Century though to the increasingly complex mixture of ownerships and
tenures in the present day. The management of housing forms a key part of the book, with an emphasis on the practical aspects of tenant
participation and multi-agency working.
The book is ideal for students of housing and social policy, and for housing professionals aiming
to obtain qualifications and wanting a broad understanding of the social housing sector.
Audience
Undergraduate students of housing and related subjects. Professionals at degree, diploma or certificate level.
