This book is the first comprehensive volume exploring an issue of
growing importance to policy makers, academics, housing
practitioners and students. It brings together contributions from
the most prominent scholars in the field to provide a range of
theoretical perspectives, critical analysis and empirical research
findings about the role of housing and urban governance in
addressing anti-social behaviour. Contributors assess constructions
of anti-social behaviour in policy discourse, identify how housing
is increasingly central to the governance of anti-social behaviour
and critically evaluate a wide range of measures used by housing
and other agencies to tackle what is perceived to be a growing
social problem. Although the book focuses on the UK, comparative
international perspectives are provided from France, Australia and
the United States. The book covers definitions of anti-social
behaviour and policy responses including key new legislation and
the legal role of social landlords in governing anti-social
behaviour. There is comprehensive coverage of key measures
including eviction, probationary tenancies, Anti-social Behaviour
Orders, mediation and Acceptable Behaviour Contracts, and of
innovative developments such as gated communities, intensive
support services and the use of private security. "Housing, urban
governance and anti-social behaviour" will be of interest to
academics, policy-makers, practitioners and students in the fields
of housing, urban studies, social policy, legal studies and
criminology.
