Estates on the Edge recounts the decline and rescue of low-income
government-sponsored housing estates across Northern Europe giving
a vivid account of the intense physical, social and organisational
problems facing social landlords in five countries. The ownership,
management and letting patterns diverge sharply between the
Continent, Britain and Ireland, between council landlords,
non-profit, co-operative and independent landlords. But their
community problems reveal similar trends towards poverty,
polarisation and incipient breakdown. To avert the threat of
incipient ghettos the stabilising pressures need to be stronger
than the growing pressures towards chaos. Governments have become
directly involved in estate rescue because of the vital social role
estates are playing. The book traces the process of decline and
renewal and shows how we can learn the lessons of policy failures
and successes.
