Whatever happened to housing and the environment?
Brown, T.
Whatever happened to housing and the environment? - 2003 - Housing Studies 18(4) July 2003, 505-515(11) .
Takes stock of the housing and environment debate, arguing that much of the optimism of the early 1990s has declined. Reviews the authors' own work as an example of the limits of previous approaches to analysing contemporary housing and environmental issues. Points out the paradox that, although housing organisations are now much more environmentally aware and many are developing green housing projects, the development of theory has lagged far behind. Argues that the analysis of environmental issues in housing studies needs to be strongly linked to the wider themes of social and economic sustainability, social integration and fair competition in the context of globalisation. References. [Taken from journal abstract].
