"The Routledge Handbook of Housing Policy and Planning is much more than a handbook. It brings together insightful essays on numerous critical housing issues by many of the leading scholars in the field. The essays examine housing and its connections to broader societal issues from an international perspective that encompasses a wide range of ideological perspectives and methodological approaches." –Alex Schwartz, Professor of Public and Urban Policy, The New School, USA"A wonderful collection of essays that address a wide range of important issues on housing policy and planning, both in the U.S. and abroad. A must-read for housing scholars and practitioners." –Lan Deng, Associate Professor of Urban and Regional Planning, University of Michigan, USA"This thorough and meticulously edited volume is a game-changer for today’s housing policy-makers, researchers and practitioners. As editors Anacker, Nguyen and Varady clearly point out in their introduction, while access to quality housing has improved for many residents in the United States, housing cost burdens have increased as well, particularly for low- and middle-income households. This is largely due to federal housing policy transformations and speculative market forces." –Deirdre Oakley, Editor, City & Community; Professor of Sociology, Georgia State University, USA"Housing plays an outsized role in many challenges we have encountered this century including economic booms and busts, rising economic inequality, and the perils of climate change. Serious thinking is needed about our current housing system to meet these and other challenges on the horizon. Drawing on leading experts and case study examples from both sides of the Atlantic, The Routledge Handbook of Housing Policy and Planning, provides a timely and comprehensive take on many of these issues and more. The book is a must read for anyone with interests in housing policy and planning and the role of housing in our increasingly complex and uncertain world." –Lance Freeman, Professor of Urban Planning, Columbia University, USA, Author of A Haven and a Hell: The Ghetto in Black America (Columbia University Press)"The rapid growth of global inequality compels a new assessment of housing issues and policies for the 21st century. This collection rises to the challenge. Building on a framing of housing as a human right amidst societal inequalities, subsequent chapters cover forms of tenure and growing concerns such as aging in place, gentrification, and suburbanization. The conclusion offers policy approaches from the local and state to federal level. Readers interested in housing theory and practice alike need look no further than this unique and comprehensive volume." –Karen Chapple, Professor of City & Regional Planning, Carmel P.
