Overview
Urban Social Housing stimulates and contributes to the search for strategic approaches to the production, maintenance and management of urban low-income group housing and the historical, geographic, cultural/political and economic contexts within which it is set. It also gives a brief overview of the prevailing existential threats to humanity caused by global heating and viral pathogen transmissions and examines the social, economic and legislative impact of these phenomena on settlement planning and management. The book distinguishes between Public Housing and Social Housing (in which individuals, communities, and organisations are engaged in risk- and benefit-sharing partnerships with government and management agencies for affordable urban housing), draws on the author's extensive experience in over twenty countries, and includes in-depth case studies from Northern Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America--
