Abstract:
Over the past decade, in the wake of the global housing crisis, many countries have again turned to public housing to increase the supply of affordable housing for disadvantaged residents. Because the literature and past experience have generally shown public-housing policies to be contrary to the urban-diversity approach, many countries are reshaping their policies and focusing on a mix of people and of land uses. In this context, the Israeli case is particularly interesting. In Israel, as in many other countries (such as Germany and England), there was greater urban diversity in public-housing construction during the 1950s and 1960s (following the state’s establishment in 1948). However, at the beginning of the new millennium, when many countries began to realise the need for change and started reshaping their public-housing policies in light of the urban-diversity approach, Israel responded differently. In this study I use urban diversity’s main principles – the mix of population and land uses – to examine the trajectory of public-housing policy in Israel from a central housing policy to a marginal one. The findings and the lessons derived from the Israeli case are relevant to a variety of current affordable-housing developments in many places.

Abstract:
The UN-Habitat recognises housing as a basic human need, and it is a central tenet articulated under Sustainable Development Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities. In Guyana, this need is principally met by the Housing Act of 1996, which mandates the Central Housing and Planning Authority to establish housing schemes countrywide. Housing scheme establishment can be challenged by the physiographic conditions of hinterland regions. In 2010, the Authority proposed housing development at the periphery of Bartica, Cuyuni-Mazaruni (Region VII), which is earmarked as the nation’s model green town.

Abstract:
Housing is an important component of the consumption basket. Because both rental prices and goods prices are sticky, the literature suggests that optimal monetary policy should stabilize both types of prices, with the optimal weight on rental inflation proportional to the housing expenditure share. In a two-sector DSGE model with sticky rental prices and goods prices, however, we find that the optimal weight on rental inflation in the Taylor rule is small—much smaller than that implied by the housing expenditure share. We show that the asymmetry in policy responses to rent inflation versus goods inflation stems from the asymmetry in factor intensity between the two sectors.

Abstract:
Actuality of the investigated problem is conditioned by the necessity of development of low-rise housing construction on territory of the Central Federal District (CFD) of Russia, because, despite positive dynamics, low-rise housing estate is yet not enough used in town-planning practice. The aim of the article is to give an analysis of the state of application of low-rise housing estate in the conditions of this district for development of scientific grounds of the "Government program of low-rise housing construction on territory of the Central Federal District of Russia". Development of low-rise housing construction is aimed to the quickest decision of the housing problem, improvement the comfort of dwelling and quality of residential environment, increase of availability of accommodation for greater part of population. The Central Federal District is the geographical and important financial center of Russia. It includes plenty of small and medium-sized cities, including historical cities, as well as rural settlements, where development of low-rise housing estate is especially expedient. In terms of housing provision, Russians still lag behind most of the economically developed countries. The demographic indicators and the standard of living of the population largely depend on the condition and volume of the housing stock and on the environmental conditions. The town-planning and environmental problems of the regions of the CFD need to be addressed in accordance with the "Strategy for the socio-economic development of the Central Federal District for the period to 2020". Town-planning conditions for low-rise buildings can be averaged in the following options: in urban districts; suburban areas, outside the city in the near, middle and far suburbs; in rural settlements (with selection of reserve territories necessary for development of low-rise buildings). In the Central Federal District of Russia there is enough territory for the development of low-rise housing construction, an early solution of the housing problem and the creation of a comfortable living environment. Therefore, the development of a scientifically based "State program of low-rise construction in the territory of the Central Federal District of Russia" is necessary. The Program should be based on the disaggregation of concentrations in urban agglomerations and the creation of residential areas with low-rise buildings in urban districts and rural settlements.

Abstract:
The paper investigates the performance of China’s housing market and the reasons for its housing problems. Beyond market mechanical deficiencies of the infant housing development, local government’s housing-led economic development model and central government’s economic-prioritised housing policy strategy are the roots of its housing problems. The Xi-Li leadership is seemingly taking a step towards market-supporting strategies; this could be the turning point in housing governance since the 1998 housing reform.

Abstract:
In the wake of the housing market crash in the United States in the late 2000s, images of abandoned homes on the periphery of American cities dominated international media. Mexico continues to face a housing crisis that began at the same time, and the media similarly focus on the high rate of housing vacancy in the urban periphery. The vacancy rate is extreme in many newly built subdivisions in Mexico, yet it is also high in most central cities. In this article, I describe the role of government mortgage lending in housing vacancy rates, across and within cities in Mexico. I do this using data from the 2010 Census of Population and Housing for the 100 largest cities in the country. Cities with more housing built under the federal housing finance system have higher vacancy rates overall, and the relationship is strong in central areas of cities as well as the urban periphery. These findings imply that policymakers should not only be concerned with vacancy in newly built suburban developments, but they should also consider how the expansion of credit for new suburban housing has played a role in the hollowing out of central cities. The article has direct implications for Mexico and raises questions about the frame for debate about housing policy internationally. The structure of housing finance systems is often under-scrutinised. Scholars working in emerging markets should work to identify incentives in finance systems and how they shape urbanisation.

The findings of research into the policy and practice of local authority housing-benefit sections in determining the eligible rent levels on which housing-benefit payments for private tenants are calculated are set out. It is shown that there are differences in the ways in which housing-benefit sections interpret and put into effect the regulations in this area of housing-benefit administration. The entitlements of housing-benefit claimants in similar circumstances may, therefore, differ depending on the part of Britain in which they live. The paper ends with a brief consideration of ways in which the situation might be improved.

Abstract:
With increasingly high housing prices, the urban housing problem has changed from an economic issue to a livelihood issue in China. Taking 32 major cities in China as an example, this paper employed data from 2007 to 2016 to build a panel data model to empirically study the impact of population migration on urban housing prices. From the two perspectives of the national level and regional level (eastern region, central region and western region), the results of this study showed that (1) on the national level, population inflow had a significant positive correlation with urban housing prices, where a population inflow rate increase of 1% increased urban housing prices by 0.31%; and (2) on the regional level, a population inflow rate increase of 1% increased urban housing prices in the eastern region by 1.34%, but population inflow had no obvious impact on the urban housing prices in the central and western regions. Based on the results, this study suggested addressing housing supply imbalances through housing product diversification and affordable housing system improvement, and addressing construction land supply imbalances by building a perfect system linking land-use planning to population; at the same time, it also suggested building more nationally central cities following the urbanization trend, and taking this as the key to developing urban agglomerations, reasonably decentralizing the population flow, promoting the healthy and stable development of the real-estate market and advancing sustainable urbanization. The above conclusions have practical significance for China and other developing countries to coordinate population and urban development in the process of rapid urbanization.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper argues that the low-income housing programme in China has so far failed to provide adequate housing for the poor for three main reasons: the central government's failure to define a clear mission; a lack of commitment from local governments; and an exclusionary policy towards migrants. A systematic review of low-income housing policy in China shows that the central government juggles its economic and socio-political goals thereby causing constant changes in low-income housing policy. Meanwhile, the existing public finance system, the performance evaluation system and localization in policy implementation have all resulted in a lack of commitment from local governments to low-income housing. Inadequate provision is made worse by problems with allocation. Despite encouraging changes since 2010, many factors underlying the government's failures remain unchanged, thus the fate of low-income housing remains uncertain.

Abstract:
This article belongs to the special cluster, “Politics and Current Demographic Challenges in Central and Eastern Europe,” guest-edited by Tsveta Petrova and Tomasz Inglot. We explore housing finance and policy in East Central Europe to understand the connection between housing, in particular independent household formation, and the demographic crisis. The combination of high debt-free homeownership rates with illiquid housing finance and limited rental markets produces conditions where housing restricts independent household formation and likely has a restrictive effect on fertility. We first assess the housing regime type in East Central Europe and demonstrate that it closely corresponds to the “difficult housing regime” in Southern Europe, which has well-established negative effects on independent household formation and fertility. Then we present a detailed case study of Hungary, which is a country with very low fertility rates and substantial changes in housing finance and policy over time. In particular, the issue was recently politicized through housing policies centered on household formation to counter the demographic crisis. We present a detailed analysis of policies related to access to housing for young adults through increased access to markets or state housing support schemes. These policies attempted to reduce dependence on families, but after the crisis, we find that these policies reinforce, rather than challenge, dependence on families for housing solutions, thereby limiting independent household formation. While these policies may serve a rhetorical role demonstrating a state response to the demographic crisis, we claim that their impact on fertility can be at most minimal because of stringent restrictions in access that concentrates on upper-middle-income households and limited financial commitment.

Abstract:
Economical housing in China is targeted at the housing needs of middle and lower‐middle income urban households. Subsidies and other preferential policies for the provision of such housing are extended by the government. Economical housing is viewed by the Chinese central government as a fundamental component of the new housing system, which was set up in 1998 following the end of the old public housing system. It has also been used as the main driver for economic growth by the Chinese central government in the past five years. In each of those years, billions of RMB from the national budget has been invested in building economical housing, with the aim of eliminating the large gap between housing prices in the open market and public affordability, as well as to support economic growth. The issue of economical housing in China is intimately tied up with political and social issues. This paper presents a thorough study of the evolution of economical housing from 1998 to 2002 in China. Beijing is chosen as a case study because it is the capital city and has one of the most important real estate markets in the country. Recommendations are also given on the future development of economical housing.

Abstract:
With the continuous increase of the number of college students, more and more college graduates choose to stay in cities for work and living. Most of them were born in rural areas and central towns, who live in urban villages after graduation. They have received excellent higher education, but they engage in low-income and unstable work; they are the hard core of social construction in future. However, their current living status is worrying. Thus it has become a major social issue in social and economic transformation period of China. This paper conducted field survey on the status of housing security of college graduates, analyzed its cause, and proposed corresponding countermeasures and suggestions referring to domestic and overseas relevant experiences, so as to let more low-income college graduates be able to enjoy the benefits brought by urban housing security.

Abstract:
This study investigated whether and to what extent does the High-Speed Railway (HSR) affect city-level housing prices. With the data of HSR operation and housing prices from 285 cities from 2009 to 2017, the paper aimed to estimate the quantitative relationship between HSR and city-level housing prices and exploited city and regional dummy variables to assess the disparities between regions, followed by the economic effects between typical city pairs. Our findings were as follows: (1) The introduction of HSR leads to a 13.9% increase in city-level housing prices, and the figures for national central cities and regional central cities were 31.7% and 19.6%, respectively; (2) regional imbalance was mitigated with the development of the HSR, and some central cities in underdeveloped regions were stimulated with regard to housing price growth; (3) siphon effects and diffusion effects were observed in megacity–small city pairs, while synergistic effects often lay in megacity–megacity pairs, and such effects all tended to be more significant with increases in the number of HSR lines and a drop in the travel time.

Abstract:
In any society, to meet the housing need, there is a set of conditions for its implementation, which all together form the housing system, but in no society at the appropriate level, this problem is not completely solved. It is established that preferential provision of housing for citizens is carried out through mechanisms: providing citizens with affordable housing; provided for the implementation of state, regional and local housing programs for certain categories of the population; provision of social housing to socially vulnerable segments of the population. Preferential provision of housing for citizens is carried out through mechanisms: providing citizens with affordable housing; provided for the implementation of state, regional and local housing programs for certain categories of the population; providing social housing to socially vulnerable groups. Execution of state housing programs may be subject to corruption risks during their implementation, and officials responsible for their implementation may be subject to corruption offenses in the performance of their official duties. In the process of implementing housing programs, anti-corruption measures should begin with the development of directions, strategies and programs, which should include collecting reliable data on the problem, developing effective implementation mechanisms, detailed analysis and monitoring of the results with public participation, legal examination of draft regulations for their compliance with anti-corruption legislation. Local authorities play an important role in providing housing for citizens. Іmplementation of housing programs in our country usually has a 2-tier structure: central and local, local governments often only act as intermediaries between the central government and the main housing sectors.

Abstract:
The distribution of government task is divided into two kinds, the absolute task performed by the central government; and concurrent task (the task of choice and mandatory) that are a joint task between the central and local governments. Based on Law Number 23 the Year 2014 on Regional Government, the task of housing and settlement area is a mandatory task (basic service) of the (central and local) government tasks. However, there is a policy change that states that providing housing is not only a government (central and local) task, but also requires the involvement of other government agencies associated with this task, thus have to create a separate unit of work in handling it. Therefore, this paper aims to identify and analyze various policies and institutional coordination in the field of Housing and Settlement Area with the approach of Law of Governance, then provide solutions to efforts in increasing the institutional capacity so as not to overlap.

AbstractSpatio-temporal model and event analysis were integrated in this paper, with 156 prefecture level cities’ housing transaction data and 167 items policies proposed by 10 central cities between January, 2010 and December, 2018 as samples. This paper studied the regional and cross-regional spillover effects of central cities’ urban housing regulation policies to the peripheral cities in the scope of urban agglomerations, as well as the policy-driven interactions of different regional real estate markets. The results indicated that: China’s regional housing market has obvious characteristics of policy orientation, of which the regulation measures on some central cities can affect the residential market and produce certain spillover interference on the market fluctuations of peripheral cities in time and space dimension. When geographical factor was considered, the 10 central cities had different degree of policy spillover effects caused by distinct policy types in their respective urban agglomerations. When ignoring spatial factors, restrictive policies in Beijing, Shanghai, Zhengzhou, Xi’an, Wuhan and Shenzhen had significant cross-regional spillover effects and drove the surrounding housing markets to have geared interactions, which to a certain extent revealed the flowing way of population and wealth in China’s regional economy during the past dozen years.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThis paper examines the current model of sheltered housing and explores a central contradiction in that model: namely that if only those people who most need and appreciate the unique features of sheltered housing were allocated places in schemes, the existing model ultimately could not provide sufficient support. This central contradiction leads to a fundamental lack of clarity in the role of sheltered housing. This is reflected in the ambiguities apparent in allocation practices, where judgements are typically made not only in relation to the tenants' needs and demands but also in relation to the impact on schemes. Evidence is presented from a recent study of sheltered and amenity housing in Scotland, which exposes these issues and suggestions are made as to how the traditional model of sheltered housing can be made more flexible and more suited to those who need and value it most.

Abstract:
The 2018 Palu Earthquake had damaged many community houses. The post-earthquake settlements program is the construction of temporary shelter and permanent house. The paper discusses to evaluate the development and propose rehabilitation and reconstruction applied in Central Sulawesi. All data were obtained by questionnaire, interviews, and field observations. The data is analyzed in a result framework for the shelter evaluation and a comparison to other post-earthquake programs for permanent house development. The research found the temporary shelter is occupied by only 52% because of impractical mobilization, living cost assistance absence, uncomfortable conditions, lack of clean water, and several refugees have reconstructed their houses. A low satisfaction rate is caused by the inadequate indoor condition, small capacity, and lack of privacy. This rate makes the temporary shelter is less effective. Regarding the permanent house development, the construction of relocated and satellite houses use modular houses, while the house reconstruction program authorizes the community to choose the preferred house model. The result is concerned to be different in occupancy and satisfaction level, in which the house reconstruction program will be more accepted. Since the temporary shelter and permanent house development requires relocated sites, land provision has slowed down the pre-construction stage.

Abstract:
The flexible housing is a house to be able to change space, depending on the needs of dwellers in order to adapt diversity and change of resident’s life. This report studies the characteristic of space on the flexible unit planning by analyzing justify graphs according to change of rooms and change of space between rooms. The flexible housing can be classified as the central core type and central hall type, the central core type shows a ring type for improving the connectedness between spaces, and central hall type appeared to be a tree type to create independent rooms for flexibility.

Abstract:
This paper develops a theoretical framework for institutional analysis of the governance of low-income housing in the city. I focus on the provision of local public goods as a central issue for low-income housing. Factors that affect the governance structure from the efficiency perspective and the equity perspective, respectively, are explored. I argue that over-subsidisation is an important problem for income-redistribution institutions and, hence, public housing or social housing becomes an important form of governmental intervention in low-income housing. The framework is then applied to low-income housing in China. In particular, I analyse the governance structures of several major types of low-income housing including public rental housing, private low-income housing, work-unit compound and urban village.

Abstract:
The rapid development of the high-speed rail (HSR) network enhanced the regional accessibility between cities, drove the rise in cities’ investment levels, and expanded the activity radius of the labor force, causing changes in housing prices along the rail lines. Based on panel data of 285 cities in China from 2008–2016, this study used the difference-in-difference based on propensity score matching (PSM-DID) method to calculate the impact of HSR on housing prices. The conclusions of the study indicated that, at the regional level, HSR significantly promoted the rise in housing prices in HSR cities along the rail line. HSR had a positive effect on housing prices, where the coefficient of HSR influence was 0.1511 and passed a 1% significance test. From the perspective of the combination of sub-regional and sub-city scales, HSR mainly played a significant role in promoting housing prices in “small and medium-sized cities” and “central and western cities”, especially in small and medium-sized cities in the central and western regions; in general, HSR can narrow the housing price gap between “small and medium-sized HSR cities” in the central and western regions and large HSR cities in the east region. Lastly, the results of the intermediary mechanism test showed that the income level of residents and employment levels played an intermediary role in the influence of HSR on the housing prices of cities along the rail line. Thus, this paper suggests that the Chinese government needs to formulate housing price control policies that suit local conditions according to the characteristics of different cities.

Abstract:
The plan of “12•5” reflects the importance of the people’s livelihood, and the congress put forward to some measures about housing safeguard. When the central government vigorously promotes the policy of housing, it analyzes the group game among the large listed companies, the local government and the central government to obtain that the large listed companies can gain the benefit from the field of economically affordable housing and capped-price housing, analyzing the cooperative game among the state-owned enterprises, advising the government can cooperative with the state-owned enterprise to build the rental housing and mutually surrender part of the profits based on the credible commitment and the precondition of a series of preferential policies about tax reduction, analyzing the expectation of the consumer about buying or renting and the expectation of the company about the building of rental housing or the general commercial house to obtain that the consumer like to rent a house firstly and adjust their psychology, entering into the model of renting firstly and buying secondly. Establishing the system of housing safeguard with the above-mentioned analysis based on the game theory, the system of housing safeguard is improved with the adding of the large state-owned, privately-owned listed companies and the state-owned enterprises to provide a reference for the construction of housing safeguard.

Abstract:
California is known for home values that eclipse U.S. housing prices. To increase housing inventory, California has implemented a regional housing needs allocation (RHNA) to transmit shares of housing growth to cities. However, no study has established RHNA’s efficacy. After examining the 4th RHNA cycle (i.e., 2006–2014) for 185 Los Angeles region cities, this study determined that RHNA directed housing growth to the city of Los Angeles and the region’s outlying cities as opposed to increasing density in the central and coastal cities. Second, RHNA directed 62% of housing growth to the region’s unaffordable cities. Third, the sample suffered a 34% shortfall in housing growth due to the Great Recession but garnered an average achievement of approximately 93% due to RHNA’s transmission of minimal housing growth shares. Lastly, RHNA maintained statistically significant associations with increased housing inventory, housing affordability, and housing growth rates, indicating that RHNA may influence housing development.

Abstract:
The article reflects the results of the studies on the Central Asian Shepherd dog breed. The dog assessment data on the main measurements, body indices, and certain characteristics of reproduction in various housing systems are considered. The objects of the research were adult dogs of the Central Asian Shepherd breed born in 2012 - 2017, 51 heads were kept by amateurs in Kherson city. It was established that only 39.22 % of the total number was kept under apartment conditions, while the owners preferred males - their specific weight was from 58.06 % to 75 % of the total number. The vast majority (87.50 %) of the dogs, regardless of the conditions of housing, were never used in reproduction. The intensity of the use of the female dogs was associated with the conditions of housing – under of the aviary housing, at least once in their life they received offspring of 46.15 % of female dogs, under apartment housing – only 16.67 %. The average number of healthy puppies in the offspring was 8.29 heads. The speed of realization of the puppies was influenced by their gender. At the age of 4 to 8 weeks, 63.79 % of the young animals were sold, of which 73.33 % were males and only 53.57 % were females. Regardless of the system of dog housing, pronounced sexual dimorphism was observed by the measurements (3.98 - 8.78 cm). Relative to the minimum size, the female dogs had an advantage at the level of 11.86 %, males - at 10.46 %. Thus, the female dogs were relatively larger than the males. The apartment housing did not affect the size of the dogs negatively. For most measurements, the advantage of the apartment kept dogs ranged from 2.09 to 5.54 %. The live weight variability was greater than the measurements (variation coefficients ranged between 6.82 - 10.21 %), sexual dimorphism was quite pronounced – the males were 5.98 - 6.21 % heavier than the female dogs. As in the measurements, the female dogs had higher rates exceeding the minimum requirements for standard live weight than the males (31.75 % and 17.59 %). The apartment kept dogs had an advantage in live weight compared to the aviary kept dogs from 4.70 % to 5.73 %. All dogs under study had a moderately stretched format, the value of the format index ranged from 102.67 to 106.44 units with the severity of sexual dimorphism at the level of 1.58 - 1.91 %. The aviary kept dogs had a longer format, the excess was from 1.74 % (female dogs) to 2.08 % (males), they had a lower density index than the dogs of the apartment housing (difference of 3.09 - 3.39 %). According to the mass index, there were no significant differences between the dogs, which were kept by the compared systems.

Abstract:
Housing is poorly constructed for the New Zealand climate and is a major cause of poor health and premature mortality. Private rental housing is older and in poorer condition than public housing and owner-occupied housing. This special issue describes four different approaches to improving housing, which have implications for international housing, health, and well-being policies. The first approach looks at generating the evidence base for improving the quality of the rental sector; the second, the aftereffects of the Christchurch earthquake and the unprecedented role taken by the central government to override local government and community involvement in rebuilding housing and regenerating the city; the third, measuring the effectiveness of the remediation of public housing; and finally, community-based partnerships between community workers and academics to improve the housing of children who have been hospitalized for housing-sensitive hospitalizations.

Abstract:
Each new radial highway serving large U.S. metropolitan areas decentralized 14% to 16% of central city working residents and 4% to 6% of jobs in the 1960–2000 period. Model calibrations yield implied elasticities of central city total factor productivity to central city employment relative to suburban employment of 0.04 to 0.09, meaning a large fraction of agglomeration economies operates at submetropolitan-area spatial scales. Each additional highway causes central city income net of commuting costs to increase by up to 2.4% and housing cost to decline by up to 1.3%. Factor reallocation toward land in housing production generates the plurality of the population decentralization caused by new highways.

Abstract:
Housing is a particularly important example of what might be thought of as a standard function of central and local government, a consequence of the increased requests of citizens for housing and an attempt to find the best way to realise these. Clearly, it represents an issue of significant social importance. Albania has approved Law No. 22/2018 On social housing, an essential act in the fulfilment of social housing programmes. The objective of the law is to define the rules and administrative procedures as regards the means of planning, insuring, administrating and distributing social housing, with the purpose of creating opportunities for suitable and affordable housing, relying on the capacity to pay of families in need of housing with the assistance of responsible state institutions. This Law is a very important step because, within its desire to facilitate social housing programmes, one part is dedicated to women as survivors of violence, a further step towards meeting the standards of the Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence.

Abstract With the incorporation of spatial statistic method, this paper constructs a state-space model of housing market bubbles, discussing the spatial pattern of housing market bubbles in China, and identifying the dynamic evolution process. The results show that: The bubbles of housing market walked along a path from low level to high level and then downsized to a low level during the period of 2009 and 2014, and the highest level stayed at 2011. From overall, the level of housing market bubbles had shown significant spatial autocorrelation and spatial agglomeration. In detail, the direction of North-South in China showed the inverted U shape, i.e., Central region was with high bubbles, and two ends contained low bubbles; from East-West direction, the East had high bubbles and the West contained comparatively low bubbles. Local spatial test indicates that there were some approximate spatial features in housing market bubbles among the adjacent regions. Observed from the level of housing market bubbles, China contained 3 plates: The first was the plate with low bubble level, including 3 provinces in North-East China (provinces of Jilin, Heilongjiang and Liaoning were included, but Dalian in Liaoning province was excluded; the second was the Central and West plate (the provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Gansu, Fujian, Jiangxi and Hainan were included in this plate), which was also featured with low bubble; and the third was Central East plate (provinces or provincial regions of Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Shandong, Anhui, Shanxi, Shaanxi and Inner Mongolia were included), which was characterized as high bubble region.

<p class="ber"><span lang="EN-GB">This paper discusses housing sustainability challenges and applicable sustainable urban renewal strategy for Nigerian cities, and thereby emphasizes the dimension of government-instituted urban renewal policy. This is with a view to projecting the need for urban housing sustainability with respect to developing countries A field survey conducted in Ile-Ife, a typical Nigerian city in its South-Western region is used to appraise the extent of the housing sustainability challenges. The four areas for the survey- Itakogun-Okerewe, Ogbingbin, Obalufon-Ilara and Igboya, were purposively selected from the Ife Central Local Government which constitutes the central area of Ile-Ife. The conditions of the houses and neighbourhoods were assessed by means of administration of questionnaire to residents and observation. In each of the four areas surveyed, the findings indicated that the built environment was deplorable. The indoor and outdoor environmental quality factors were unsatisfactory to respondents and the essential services were not in serviceable condition. The study concluded that the poor and uncomfortable housing and environmental living conditions in the city core areas reflected the stress of urbanization. The findings, though limited in scope to one typical Nigerian city, give insight that housing challenges of urban central areas are in unsustainable dimensions. It was recommended that there must be a commitment to adequate and far-reaching urban renewal programmes based on sustainability, energy conservation and human comfort. Government intervention in the dynamics of the urban environment in Nigeria is urgently required to effect good governance and acceptable urban management.</span></p>

Abstract:
Public housing advocates argue that the nation should expand the federal public housing program as part of an effort to increase the supply of affordable rental housing. This paper examines federal public housing construction in the largest US cities over the period 1937–1967, a period during which the public housing program was the primary program to provide low-income households with affordable rental housing. Public housing is found to depend upon the population level of the city, factors that characterize the housing stock as of 1950, the poverty level in the city, and the size of the nonwhite population in the city. The National Commission on Urban Problems (National commission on urban problems 1968, page 128) found that this supply response meant that “… the great need of the large central cities for housing for poor families was largely unmet.” Changes in racial segregation from 1940 to 1960 are found to be unrelated to public housing construction. While the current situation is different in many respects from circumstances of these earlier decades, a renewed effort to supply public housing might produce similar outcomes.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTAs a result of changes to the financial regime for housing associations, affordability has become a major issue of debate in social rented housing in Britain. This paper assesses the implications of trying to construct a finance system for housing associations based on a regime of ‘affordable rents’ and the ‘safety net’ of Housing Benefits but with the state declining to define the central concept of affordability. Using examples of a number of Western countries, and empirical evidence from the sector in Scotland, the present position is criticised, and a route out of the policy vacuum is suggested. This is founded on the premise that housing is a means rather than an end, within a broader social policy. Given the political constraints, one solution lies in studies of the expenditure patterns and standards of living of different groups of housing association tenants, and in the creation of a sector-specific organisational subsidy to be available in addition to the usual producer- and consumer-subsidies.

Abstract:
This article makes borrowed use of the ‘paradigm shift’ concept to explain the development and culmination of Israel’s neoliberal housing transformation. Using a mixed-method approach based chiefly on 60 interviews conducted with key players in Israel’s housing industry, we examine how a shift in authority over housing policy promoted two central ideas that reshaped the housing arena and urban space. We explore how these themes, specifically, construing housing in-affordability as a supply issue and defining its beneficiaries as the middle class, shaped key affordable housing mechanisms. These mechanisms include increasing the supply of general housing, small-size housing units and rentals. We also identify a parallel paradigm – a shadow paradigm – alongside the reigning neoliberal paradigm that is used as an intervention mechanism in times of crisis or during windows of opportunity. We demonstrate how the shadow paradigm addresses housing needs that cannot be met within the governing paradigm, for example, through the buyer’s price programme.
