Overview
In this book, established housing policy experts Rowland Atkinson and Keith Jacobs expose the true economic forces behind Britainās housing crisis. Urging readers to see the crisis as a result of the āproperty machineā; a financial system made up of banks and investors, developers, landlords, and real estate agencies that prioritises the interests of capital over social need. An unequal system that has been routinely protected by the policy decisions of successive governments.
To overcome this troubling system and alleviate the crisis, the authors outline a series of innovative proposals that would improve housing conditions and tackle the inequalities expressed in relation to personal housing wealth. Allowing for the establishment of a fairer, more equal society, and a more stable economic future.
