Abstract
AbstractThis paper is an historical perspective of urban housing policies in China from 1949 to the present. Data are obtained primarily from articles in a newspaper, The China Daily. Changes in policies reflect a variety of factors including changes in government, in national goals, in priorities and resources, and in reactions to deplorable housing conditions. Currently China is moving from almost total government ownership of housing to an encouragement of more private ownership and responsibility. It is concluded that nations will continue to experiment with different models of public sector and private sector contribution and responsibility for housing as they attempt to provide adequate housing for their populations.
