House-prices are spiralling out of control, rents are rising faster than wages, and there is a serious shortage of new affordable homes. But what caused this crisis and what can we do about it?</strong></p><p>In this book, established housing policy experts Rowland Atkinson and Keith Jacobs expose the true economic forces behind Britains housing crisis. Urging readers to see the crisis as a result of the property machine; 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.</p><p>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.</p><p>Written by leading social scientists, the <strong>What Do We Know and What Should We Do About...?</strong> series offers concise, up-to-date overviews of issues often oversimplified, misrepresented or misunderstood and shows you how to enact change.</p><p><strong>"Short, sharp and compelling."</strong> - Alex Preston, The Observer</p><p><strong>"If you want to learn a lot about what matters most, in as short a time as possible, this is the series for you."-</strong> Danny Dorling, 1971 Professor of Geography, University of Oxford</p>...1011691What Do We Know and What Should We Do About Housing?250263https://www.gandhi.com.mx/what-do-we-know-and-what-should-we-do-about-housing/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/770291/7e029722-7df0-402d-9b77-01dd5dbfe312.jpg?v=638336145408770000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20209781529712797_W3siaWQiOiIxYmU2ZjdmMC1lMDZkLTQxOGItYjQzMi1kNDNkMDczYzNjYzIiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjI3MywiZGlzY291bnQiOjE0LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjI1OSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMTItMDFUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9781529712797_<p><strong>The UK housing market is in crisis.
