Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slums and Redevelopment (1992) moves between national policy formation and detailed local studies, particularly of London, studies involving landlords and property, tenants and rehousing, and the implementation of programmes. The interwar period it examines saw the restoration of slum clearance following a period of opposition, and the onset of the first national slum clearance programme, reaching its climax in the plans for large-scale redevelopment mad during World War II. Inner city redevelopment of this kind had its intellectual origins in the 1930s, and had much wider repercussions for property and social policy.

Download or read book Slum Clearance written by John English and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1976. Slum clearance is a particularly significant process because it places the ordinary citizen in a state of extreme dependence on his local authority. The local authority not only destroys his existing environment but controls access to a replacement council house. This book highlights both the control over the life chances of individual citizens which local government can exercise and the potential impotence of citizens caught up in a complex bureaucratic process. It investigates the difficulties faced by individuals in exercising even the rights and choices which are ostensibly provided by the existing structure. The book also seeks to apply theories of urban sociology in exploring the control of access to public housing. The essential objective of this study is demystification of the administrative processes of slum clearance and rehousing through analysis of local authority bureaucracy and its impact on individuals.

Download or read book The Eternal Slum written by Anthony Wohl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of how, where, and on what terms to house the urban masses in an industrial society remains unresolved to this day. In nineteenth-century Victorian England, overcrowding was the most obvious characteristic of urban housing and, despite constant agitation, it remained widespread and persistent in London and other great cities such as Manchester, Glasgow, and Liverpool well into the twentieth century. The Eternal Slum is the first full-length examination of working-class housing issues in a British town. The city investigated not only provided the context for the development of a national policy but also, in scale and variety of response, stood in the vanguard of housing reform. The failure of traditional methods of social amelioration in mid-century, the mounting storm of public protest, the efforts of individual philanthropists, and then the gradual formulation and application of new remedies, constituted a major theme: the need for municipal enterprise and state intervention. Meanwhile, the concept of overcrowding, never precisely defined in law but based on middle-class notions of decency and privacy, slowly gave way to the positive idea of adequate living space, with comfort, as much as health or morals, the criterion.Not just dwellings but people were at issue. There is little evidence in this period of the attitude of the worker himself to his housing. Wohl has extensively researched local archives and, in particular, drawn on the vestry reports which have been relatively neglected. Profusely illustrated with contemporary photographs and drawings, this book is the definitive study of the housing reform movement in Victorian and Edwardian London and suggests what it was really like to live under such appalling conditions. This important study will be of interest to social historians, British historians, urban planners, and those interested in how social policies developed in previous eras.
