Housing Policy and Practice in China

by Ya Ping Wang

An addition to comparative housing research, seeking to add to the knowledge of housing policy in practice in China. The authors demonstrate how Chinese housing provision and policy differs in important ways from that of the former state socialist regimes in Eastern Europe and from other developing countries with which China is often grouped. The relationships to the Chinese political and social frameworks and the influences of Asian neighbours are outlined and assessed.
