The privatisation of public space
Minton, Anna
The privatisation of public space - London RICS 2006 - 34p. ill. 30cm.
Looks at the growing ownership and management of the public realm and argues that a quiet revolution in land ownership, replicating Victorian patterns, is just beginning. It is a sequel to "Building balanced communities" (ISBN 1842191098), a report published by RICS in 2002 which compared American trends toward the spread of gated communities and ghettoes with the growing British phenomenon of hot spots of affluence and cold spots of exclusion.
