In the 1949 Housing Act, Congress declared a decent home and a
suitable living environment for every American family our national
housing goal. Today, little more than half a century later, upwards
of 100 million people in the United States live in housing that is
physically inadequate, unsafe, overcrowded, or unaffordable.
The contributors to "A Right to Housing "consider the key issues
related to America's housing crisis, including income inequality
and insecurity, segregation and discrimination, the rights of the
elderly, as well as legislative and judicial responses to
homelessness. The book offers a detailed examination of how access
to adequate housing is directly related to economic security.
With essays by leading activists and scholars, this book presents a
powerful and compelling analysis of the persistent inability of the
U.S. to meet many of its citizens' housing needs, and a
comprehensive proposal for progressive change.
