Selling the Welfare State

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the privatisation of public housing in Britain, this critical analysis traces its historical background and the political debates surrounding it. It highlights how housing privatisation connects to broader societal changes, particularly the evolution of social housing into a welfare sector amid increasing social polarisation and segregation. The book delves into the uneven spatial and social impacts of these policies, providing a comprehensive examination of their implications for British society.
