Just under 1.5 million dwellings in the UK are officially classified as unfit for occupation, with a much larger number in a state of considerable disrepair. The first edition of the The state of UK housing provided the first single source of data on poor housing conditions that covers the whole of the UK, giving comprehensive information on measures to deal with these problems. This updated second edition draws together data from the national house condition surveys carried out between 1996 and 1998.The state of UK housing examines:the measurement of poor housing conditions;unfit dwellings including lack of amenities and disrepair;contrasts between urban and rural areas within the UK and between European countries;poor housing conditions across the dwelling stock;the characteristics of households living in poor conditions;housing renewal policies over the past 40 years;the effectiveness of current policies to tackle poor housing conditions;public and private investment in housing renovation.·[vbTab][vbTab]The report is extensively illustrated with tables, graphs and maps which will be of considerable interest to policy makers and researchers alike. Supporting appendices provide full details of the data in the report and a wide range of information on individual authorities which will enable them to compare their problems and performance with others.The state of UK housing is essential reading and an invaluable reference for all those involved in the implementation of renovation policies and those concerned with the growing problem of disrepair in the nation's housing stock.

Originally published in 1979, this book was the first to provide a comprehensive political-economic analysis of the historical origins and 20th Century experience of state housing in the UK. The first part describes the growth of municipal housebuilding in the context of slum clearance before 1914 and the cycle of boom and slump between the wars. Part 2 covers 1945- 1980 with chapters on : site acquisition and residential densities; the housebuilding industry and its standards; the balance between rehabilitation and redevelopment and the rise and fall of the high-rise flat. Sources and costs of capital finance and the management of the stock of council dwellings is also discussed. The final part reviews the development of state housing policy since the War, within a broad political and macro-economic context.

In this book, Brian Lund builds on contemporary housing crisis narratives, which tend to focus on the growth of a younger ‘generation rent,’ to include the differential effects of class, age, gender, ethnicity and place, across the United Kingdom. Current differences reflect long-established cleavages in UK society, and help to explain why housing crises persist. Placing the UK crises in their global contexts, Lund provides a critical examination of proposed solutions according to their impacts on different pathways through the housing system. As the first detailed analysis of the multifaceted origins, impact and potential solutions of the housing crisis, this book will be of vital interest to policy practitioners, professionals and academics across a wide range of areas, including housing studies, urban studies, geography, social policy, sociology, planning and politics.

First published in 1982 at a time when housing policy featured prominently in the press and in political debate, Housing in Britain was written to provide an authoritative review of housing in Britain. The book is a comprehensive introduction to the major policy shifts from 1945 to the year of publication. It explores the many aspects of ‘housing’ as a matter of state policy; as a commodity with a certain market for its sale and exchange; as an essential item, with rules regulating access and eligibility; and as a vital element in the reproduction of social life. Particular attention is paid to the institutions involved within the British housing market, and the redistributional consequences of housing-market processes and state housing policy. Housing in Britain will appeal to those with an interest in the history of British housing policy and debates, and the history of social policy in Britain.

Housing is a fundamental necessity, and yet it is generally acknowledged that we have a 'housing crisis' in the UK. The housing market has worked well for many people (who have enjoyed the steeply rising values of their homes), which is why change, especially new building, is resisted. But for increasing numbers it now works less well, as home ownership is out of reach. Government finds it easier to introduce short-term policies that are not really effective, meaning that the long-term issues are never really resolved. Reforms are urgently needed. --Page [4] of cover.

This new analysis of housing policy in Britain since 1945 challenges conventional notions of the relationship between housing and the welfare state. It argues that housing policy in the years after the Second World War is better understood in terms of market restructuring. However, in more recent years housing has been at the forefront of changes that have drawn it closer to other welfare state services, and the modernisation of public services is continuing the trend.

Originally published in 1988, this book offers the first comprehensive and critical analysis of the privatisation of public housing in Britain. It outlines the historical background to the growth of public housing and the developing political debatea surrounding its disposal. The main emphasis in the book, however, is on the ways in which privatisation in housing links to other key changes in British society. The long trend for British social housing to become a welfare housing sector is related to evidence of growing social polarisation and segregation. Within this overall context, the book explores the uneven spatial and social consequences of the policy.

This text identifies a divergence in housing policy between a majority of relatively affluent owner-occupiers and a minority of badly housed or homeless. The well-housed majority have preoccupied public policy across Europe, and this trend has been particularly noticeable in Britain, with elections won and lost on the level of the mortgage rate rather than the level of housing output. The author offers insights into the future direction of public policy as a whole, the balance between economic and social goals, and the relative emphasis given to free markets and state intervention in a variety of countries.
