Book Modelling the Socio Economic Implications of Sustainability Issues in the Housing Market

Download or read book Modelling the Socio Economic Implications of Sustainability Issues in the Housing Market written by Solomon Pelumi Akinbogun and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-18 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses sustainable housing issues in urban areas throughout the Global South, revealing their complexity in terms of urban dynamics, housing markets and human interactions with the environment. Its main focus is on the location of graves within private residences, cemeteries in the immediate vicinity of private residences, and the implications of these factors for renters’ choices and rents. The book addresses the economics of land use for graves in connection with housing choices and the implications for the rented sector of the property market. By means of several model-based simulations, it demonstrates that the neoclassical economics remedy to the negative externality of graves in or near private residences remains generally unacceptable. Providing readers with a clear understanding of tenants’ priorities in their choice of housing, as well as a new approach to the negative externality of graves in the rented sector, the book will be of interest to policymakers, urban planners, investors in residential housing and land economists alike.

Book Hedonic Methods in Housing Markets

Download or read book Hedonic Methods in Housing Markets written by Andrea Baranzini and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-09-20 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cities are growing worldwide and their sprawl is increasingly challenged for its pressure on open spaces and environmental quality. Economic arguments can help to decide about the trade-off between preserving environmental quality and developing housing and business surfaces, provided the benefits of environmental quality are adequately quantified. To this end, this book focuses on the use and advancement of the “hedonic approach”, an economic valuation technique that analyses and quantifies the sources of rent and property price differentials. Starting from theoretical foundations, the hedonic approach is applied to the valuation of natural land use preservation and noise abatement measures, as well as to residential segregation and discrimination, extending the analysis to the role of the buyers and sellers' identity on housing market prices and to the issue of environmental justice.

Book Housing Market Renewal and Social Class

Download or read book Housing Market Renewal and Social Class written by Chris Allen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2008-04-24 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Housing market renewal is one of the most controversial urban policy programmes of recent years. Housing Market Renewal and Social Class critically examines the rationale for housing market renewal: to develop 'high value' housing markets in place of the so-called 'failing markets' of low-cost housing. Whose interests are served by such a programme and who loses out? Drawing on empirical evidence from Liverpool, the author argues that housing market renewal plays to the interests of the middle classes in viewing the market for houses as a field of social and economic 'opportunities', a stark contrast to a working class who are more concerned with the practicalities of 'dwelling'. Against this background of these differing attitudes to the housing market, Housing Market Renewal and Social Class explores the difficult question of whether institutions are now using the housing market renewal programme to make profits at the expense of ordinary working-class people. Reflecting on how this situation has come about, the book critically examines the purpose of current housing market renewal policies, and suggests directions for interested social scientists wishing to understand the implications of the programme. Housing Market Renewal and Social Class provides a unique phenomenological understanding of the relationship between social class and the market for houses, and will be compelling reading for anybody concerned with the situation of working class people living in UK cities.

Book Segregation

Download or read book Segregation written by James H. Carr and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2008-04-18 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Segregation: The Rising Costs for America documents how discriminatory practices in the housing markets through most of the past century, and that continue today, have produced extreme levels of residential segregation that result in significant disparities in access to good jobs, quality education, homeownership attainment and asset accumulation between minority and non-minority households. The book also demonstrates how problems facing minority communities are increasingly important to the nation’s long-term economic vitality and global competitiveness as a whole. Solutions to the challenges facing the nation in creating a more equitable society are not beyond our ability to design or implement, and it is in the interest of all Americans to support programs aimed at creating a more just society. The book is uniquely valuable to students in the social sciences and public policy, as well as to policy makers, and city planners.

Download or read book Consumer Law and Policy written by Iain Ramsay and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-10-25 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition continues to provide a critical introduction to the legal regulation of consumer markets, situating it within the context of broader debates about rationales for regulation, the role of the state and the growth of neo-liberalism. It draws on interdisciplinary sources, assessing, for example, the increased influence of behavioural economics on consumer law. It analyses the Europeanisation of consumer law and the tensions between neo-liberalism and the social market, consumer protection and consumer choice, in the establishment of the single market ground rules. The book also assesses national, regional and international responses to the world financial crisis as reflected in the regulation of consumer credit markets. This edition incorporates recent legislative and judicial developments of the law, blending substantial extracts from primary UK, EU and international legal materials.

Book What determines green purchase behavior

Download or read book What determines green purchase behavior written by Zhongju Liao and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-05-31 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Green purchase behavior refers to consumers purchasing green products that are environmentally friendly, using fewer resources, and causing lower environmental impact and risk. As a growing number of people start to recognize the importance of individual responsibility for environmental protection, firms are increasingly motivated to develop green products to fit the needs of this green advocation. Despite an emerging number of consumers claiming their preference towards green brands compared to traditional alternatives, researchers have found that there is a huge gap between consumers’ purchase intention and actual behavior, which has gained much attention. The psychological process of green purchase behavior may be a complicated process influenced by various factors, such as consumer values and norms, the pros and cons marketed for green products, and various other situational factors. Scholars are calling for research that explores the psychological decision-making process of green purchase behavior from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Due to the high pricing of green products, the trade-off between the price and function of green products may lower consumers’ satisfaction. Thus, there is always a gap between green purchase intention and actual purchase behavior. What determines consumers’ actual green purchase behavior? Under what conditions, will the consumers pay a premium price for green products? What prompts consumers to choose green brands over traditional alternatives? Will green consumption be a passing trend or a long-term consumption habit? What influences the frequency of consumers’ green purchasing? Scholars are welcome to share their opinions and findings about green purchase behavior to help explore this research topic. We are extremely interested in the determinants of green purchase behavior and the mechanism of facilitating green consumption considering different perspectives.
