520 _aThe authors' main aim is to take stock of the enormous changes that have taken place in recent years in explanatory approaches to housing markets and residential structure. Part1 focuses on the demand-oriented approaches of human ecology and neo-classical economics. Part II discusses the institutional approaches with reference to an analysis of private and public sector housing in Britain, drawing on illustrative material from North America and France to aid the comparative analysis of institutional structures. Part III is devoted to an evaluation of the Marxist approaches to housing and residential structure form Marx and Engels to Castells and Harvey. Housing and Residential Structure, unique in its approach, will be of particular interest to lecturers and students of geography, sociology, politics, urban economics and planning.
