Great American city: Chicago and the enduring neighborhood effect

Developments in methodologies, agglomeration, and a range of applied issues have characterized recent advances in regional and urban studies. Volume 5 concentrates on these developments while treating traditional subjects such as housing, the costs and benefits of cities, and policy issues beyond regional inequalities. Contributors make a habit of combining theory and empirics in each chapter, guiding research amid a trend in applied economics towards structural and quasi-experimental approaches. Clearly distinguished from the New Economic Geography covered by Volume 4, these articles feature an international approach that positions recent advances within the discipline of economics and society at large. * Editors are recognized as leaders and can attract an international list of contributors* Regional and urban studies interest economists in many subdisciplines, such as labor, development, and public economics* Table of contents combines theoretical and applied subjects, ensuring broad appeal to readers

Handbook of regional and urban economics

Gender inequality remains both a pressing social issue and a fruitful area of social science research. This edited volume seeks to examine gender inequality and the production of well-being in Europe from an interdisciplinary perspective that is perhaps more feminist economics than sociology. The chapters draw on historical and contemporary European examples and offer a somewhat different take (both theoretically and methodologically) on what is usually found in American sociology journals. This book takes a broader view on gender inequalities and the production of wellbeing, with the ‘‘capability approach’’ serving as the theoretical connection between the chapters. The chapters reemphasize that social reproduction is more complex than the production of goods. The various authors also call for and (in the empirical chapters) take into account the socio-political and economic context. An entire chapter is dedicated to the introduction of the capability approach (Chapter Two). But the description of the theory remains lacking amidst numerous references that point the reader towards clarification elsewhere. The authors posit that well-being is an important outcome, and that the production of well-being itself needs to be included in the study of gender inequality (Chapter One), while also demanding that women are not just another vulnerable group (Chapter Four). Chapter Three further challenges conventional notions about the evolution of the ‘‘modern family’’ in the wake of the industrialization process, and argues that the fragility of families is not a novel concept. These theoretical chapters call for a more multidimensional assessment of gender inequality, and remind readers of the importance of the concept and production of well-being. The topics covered in the two empirical parts of the book are very diverse in terms of subject, methodology, and historical time period. The first empirical section ‘‘Gender Care and Work’’ is held together by the challenge to the idea of women as passive victims and in need of assistance. Chapter Five demonstrates widows’ relative economic independence in urban Sweden and Finland from 1890 to 1910, and Chapter Six shows the centrality of female relatives in caring for extended family members in times of crisis. Chapter Seven reaffirms the idea that intergenerational support is not one-sided, and those often thought of as needing care due to older age are also givers of care and other forms of support. The findings from the chapters emphasize the importance of non-monetary transfers outside the market system. The theme of caregiving is readdressed in later chapters which illustrate how home caregiving in Belgium is situated between the public/market divide (Chapter Nine) and the problems of combining market work with caregiving, especially for those in the ‘‘sandwich generation’’ (Chapter Ten). In a seeming departure from studies in the capability approach tradition, Chapter Eight is a more typical time-use study that examines the gender asymmetry in unpaid labor in Italy. The results are not novel as women are found to do more unpaid work, especially in couples with children. The second empirical part of the book focuses on the intra-household allocation of resources. Three of the five chapters in this section center primarily on the nineteenth century, examining consumption patterns in Spain (Chapter 11), gender differences in children’s schooling in Switzerland (Chapter 12), and the differences in the treatment of and opportunities for celibate men and women in the Pyrenees (Chapter 13). These chapters illustrate gender differences, but not in

Managing the Margins: Gender, Citizenship, and the International Regulation of Precarious Employment

Providing secure, sustainable housing options for people experiencing chronic homelessness has posed an enduring challenge for policy-makers and practitioners alike. While Australian homelessness responses are largely crisis based, there are long standing debates about the best means of ending long-term homelessness altogether. These debates centre on the nature of the housing required, the form of support services that people need to exit homelessness permanently and the extent to which support should precede or follow the provision of housing. An approach that is dominating contemporary Australian homelessness policy discourse and service practice is Housing First. A Housing First approach has been advocated for by homelessness practitioners nationally, and many new programs identify as Housing First (Naidoo 2008; Queensland Government 2008; New South Wales Government 2009; HomeGround Services 2010; Australian Capital Territory Government 2011). Developed in 1992 by Sam Tsemberis as a component of the New York City Pathways to Housing organisation, the aim of a Housing First approach is to provide rapid access to permanent, supported housing for chronically homeless people (Tsemberis et al. 2004, p.651). The philosophical underpinnings of a Housing First approach are premised on two key assumptions: 1. Housing is a human right. 2. The provision of housing is not contingent upon behavioural changes or anything other than abiding by standard tenancy obligations. (Stefanic & Tsemberis 2007)

Policy Shift or Program Drift? Implementing Housing First in Australia

This study investigated the Australian private rental sector (PRS) focusing on institutional change, including formal rules (policies and regulation); organisations and structures; and informal rules (social norms and practices). It also reviewed the PRS in ten countries: Australia, Belgium, Canada, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Inquiry into the future of the private rental sector

The research finds that Austria demonstrates a model of a successful federally legislated housing system. It has a national level legislative framework outlining the business model for not-for-profit housing provision, establishing cost rent setting rules and delineating conditions for the use of direct and indirect subsidies. This ensures contestability and transparency in the allocation and use of subsidies, promotes efficiency and facilitates private investment to grow supply. There is growth in Low Profit Housing Authorities which are driving new supply and taking over management for municipal housing. The research finds local government can play a role in preparing responsive housing strategies and facilitating partnerships with local service providers. In German case studies local governments play a key role in allocating housing assistance and monitoring social contracts with landlords. City governments have played a direct role in land banking, enabling equity funding and also direct provision in Austria, Germany, Canada and the US, and have demonstrated the value of inclusionary zoning. In the United States, declining public funds have been supplemented by Low-income Housing Tax Credits, more than doubling affordable housing output. Also in the Rent Assistance Demonstration Program housing assistance subsidies are used to leverage private investment in US public housing. This process has engaged public housing providers in the market and driven entrepreneurial approaches in public housing. Further research could model these programs in the Australian context but findings suggest the development of a sustainable affordable housing industry requires: National coordination Long term mechanisms for adequate funding Efficient and effective tools to channel private investment Integrated and sophisticated local planning Opportunity for public housing providers to be engaged in the industry Anticipating maintenance and funding it Innovations in linking demand assistance to capital investment New funding models which drive cultural change
