Housing & Planning

We have a strong reputation for publishing in this area, demonstrated by our varied and solid backlist. Headed up by Brian Lund’s successful undergraduate textbook, Understanding housing policy (part of our Understanding Welfare series), our list reflects the dramatic shifts in housing and planning policies which have taken place over the last few decades and which are set to change significantly again in the current economic climate.

Housing policy transformed The right to buy and the desire to own

Peter King

This book seeks to understand the Right to Buy, the most controversial housing policy of the last 30 years, on its own terms, rather than most studies which focus on its negative impact. It explains how the policy links with a coherent ideology based on self-interest and the care of things close to us.
