Description

Product Description The fourth edition of Housing Policy in the United States refreshes its classic, foundational coverage of the field with new data, analysis, and comparative focus. This landmark volume offers a broad overview that synthesizes a wide range of material to highlight the significant problems, concepts, programs and debates that all defi ne the aims, challenges, and milestones within and involving housing policy. Expanded discussion in this edition centers on state and local activity to produce and preserve affordable housing, the impact and the implications of reduced fi nancial incentives for homeowners. Other features of this new edition include: • Analysis of the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 on housing- related tax expenditures; • Review of the state of fair housing programs in the wake of the Trump Administration’s rollback of several key programs and policies; • Cross- examination of U.S. housing policy and conditions in an international context. Featuring the latest available data on housing patterns and conditions, this is an excellent companion for graduate and advanced undergraduate courses in urban studies, urban planning, sociology and social policy, and housing policy. Review My copy of an earlier edition of Alex Schwartz’s Housing Policy in the United States is dog-eared, creased, and underlined, proof that I’ve returned to that text again and again over the years. Now updated and expanded―including with international comparisons―this is the go-to book for anyone who wants to understand the nature and consequences of housing policy in the United States. Matthew Desmond, Maurice P. During Professor of Sociology, Princeton University, Author of Evicted Alex Schwartz’s book is, hands-down, the best single resource on U.S. housing policy. It’s a perfect introduction for those just coming to the field as well as a terrific reference for those who need to brush up on details or statistics about particular programs and policies. Clearly written and comprehensive, it is the rare book that is useful for both scholars and practitioners. Ingrid Gould Ellen, Paulette Goddard Professor of Urban Policy and Planning and Faculty Director, NYU Furman Center, New York University Alex Schwartz has done it again with the fourth edition of what has come to be the go-to housing policy text in the U.S. It’s amazing that he is able to update loads of existing material and then continue to add newly relevant sections. I’m thrilled with the new chapter on comparative international housing policy. I can’t wait to add it to my own housing policy course. Dan Immergluck, Professor, Urban Studies Institute, Georgia State University The fourth edition of Alex Schwartz’s book covers the full range of federal housing policies for renters, owners, and special needs populations. The book remains accessible to all readers, from the layman to the seasoned housing policy expert. Finally, the book is well substantiated with many extremely helpful tables and figures that assist the reader in understanding the many insights offered in the text. Kirk McClure, Professor, Urban Planning, University of Kansas Alex Schwartz has done a great service to the housing field with his 4th edition of Housing Policy in the United States. He has crafted an indispensable resource for understanding why housing matters in all its dimensions. Most of what you need to know about housing is in this book. Sandra Newman, Professor of Policy Studies, Johns Hopkins University This time Alex Schwartz goes global with the most comprehensive and a most readable examination of US housing policy in its international context up to and including the impact of Covid-19 and beyond. Gregory D. Squires, Professor of Sociology and Public Policy & Public Administration, George Washington University This latest edition remains the single best place to find up-to-date answers to nearly all questions about American housing policy.
