Full Description
Examining key developments in policy towards, and nature of, the contemporary private rented sector in the UK, this book considers the evolution of the way in which people, organizations and properties in the private rented sector have been regulated. Written by authors who have a long-standing interest in the private rented sector, conducted a major research project on harassment of PRS tenants and are involved in an ongoing project of applying insights from a broad governmentality/power perspective to housing issues, this book addresses selected episodes in the history of the private rented sector, as well as policies developed by the current Labour government to restructure the way in which property standards and the behaviour of landlords and tenants are regulated. Innovative and setting strategies in the context of broader social processes such as the move away from 'the social' to the community, this is key reading for all students of planning.
