As the book considers each country's housing history and traditions, and analyses the contrasting structures and systems, it finds convergence of problems in the growing tensions of their most disadvantaged communities. The book underlines the continuing drift towards deeper polarization, an issue which has become ever more important in the multi-lingual, ethnically diverse urban societies of the 21\u003csup\u003est\u003c\/sup\u003e Century. The book's detailed coverage of the historical, political and social changes relating to housing within the various countries make it an important text for students and practitioners concerned with housing, urban affairs, social policy and administration. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anne Power\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367684985\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367684983\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/20\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 460\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.93d","brand":"Anne Power","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44070710378751,"sku":"9780367684983","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_eb5f656c-7420-437a-a931-bd5861ee18fb.jpg?v=1685431912","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hovels-to-high-rise-anne-power-9780367684983","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
