How many people live in poverty in the UK, and how has this changed
over recent decades? Are those in poverty more likely to suffer
other forms of disadvantage or social exclusion? Is exclusion
multi-dimensional, taking different forms for different groups or
places? Based on the largest UK study of its kind ever
commissioned, this fascinating book provides the most detailed
national picture of these problems. Chapters consider a range of
dimensions of disadvantage as well as poverty - access to local
services or employment, social relations or civic participation,
health and well-being. The book also explores relationships between
these in the first truly multi-dimensional analysis of exclusion.
Written by leading academics, this is an authoritative account of
welfare outcomes achieved across the UK. A companion volume Poverty
and Social Exclusion in the UK: Volume 1 focuses on specific groups
such as children or older people, and different geographical areas.

This book re-examines the role of urban policy and planning in
relation to the housing market in an era of global uncertainty and
change. The relationship between planning and the housing market is
a contested problem across research, policy, and practice. Problems
with housing supply and affordability in many nations have been
linked to planning system constraints, while the global financial
crisis has raised new questions about the role of urban planning
regulation and processes in responding to housing market trends.
With reference to international cases from the United Kingdom, the
United States, Ireland, Hong Kong and Australia, the book examines
how different systems of urban planning and governance address
complex and dynamic housing market trends. It also offers practical
guidance on how urban planning can support an efficient supply of
appropriate and affordable homes in preferred locations. A detailed
study, which explains and decodes the workings of the planning
system and housing market, this book will be of particular interest
to scholars of human geography and urban planning, as well as
housing policy makers and practitioners. To view Nicole Gurran's
