All factors which must be considered if a truly effective housing land policy is to be devised. The book: analyses social, economic, and political influences on public policy and private investment places current controversies within a strong institutional context evaluates recent changes in housebuilding explores how sustainable development provides both a common and contested discourse for debates examines financial and economic impacts of housing land policies
