Description

Explore the historical development of UK housing with State Housing in Britain: 14. Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Housing Policy and Home Ownership series, this work offers a deep political-economic analysis of the nation's housing history. Originally published in 1979, it serves as a foundational text for understanding how state housing evolved through the 20th century. The book is divided into two clear sections. The first part examines the growth of municipal housebuilding, looking at slum clearance before 1914 and the economic cycles of boom and slump between the world wars. The second part focuses on the period from 1945 to 1980. This section provides detailed coverage of site acquisition, residential densities, and the standards used by the housebuilding industry. Readers will find detailed discussions regarding the balance between rehabilitation and redevelopment, as well as the history behind the rise and fall of high-rise flats. This text is an essential resource for those studying the social sciences, anthropology, and the history of British housing policy.
