Martin J. Daunton

Housing the Workers, 1850-1914 (eBook, PDF)

A Comparative Perspective

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In the past, accounts of housing were dominated by the analysis of the problems of slum property at the bottom of the market, and the way in which public housing emerged from attempts to ameliorate the worst conditions, in an apparently inevitable process. This title questions this perception by focussing on the process of development, architectural forms, the pattern of ownership, property management and control, and public policy.
