Produktbeschreibung
This book addresses the issues that affect urban housing supply in developing countries. Using Nigeria as an example, the book explains the assumptions on which housing policy is erect and why successive policies have failed to address urban housing supply. Nigeria's housing system is explained as well as the current problems affecting the provision of urban housing. The place of global north-south policy transfer is analysed in this book with reference to the globalisation of the neoliberal agenda and how this altered the arrangement for delivery of social services including housing in Nigeria. Furthermore, the book examines globalisation in connection to how the idea of the enabling approach for shelter was deployed from the international agencies, to Nigeria. The book concludes with case studies that: investigates the problems affecting the supply of housing finance; scrutinises the role of local authorities in the organisation of new housing provision and the improvement of slum housing conditions; and analyses how the interaction of local council authorities, state government agencies and federal government agencies with developers influences the outcomes of housing supply.
