Slum Clearance (eBook, ePUB)

The Social and Administrative Context in England and Wales

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Originally published in 1976. Slum clearance is a particularly significant process because it places the ordinary citizen in a state of extreme dependence on his local authority. The local authority not only destroys his existing environment but controls access to a replacement council house. This book highlights both the control over the life chances of individual citizens which local government can exercise and the potential impotence of citizens caught up in a complex bureaucratic process.
