Reviews
"Urgent trends--from the movement for racial justice to intensified economic inequality, back-breaking rents, climate risk, and a paradigm shift in health--have spotlighted housing and affordability in ways not seen since the 1960s. This superb compilation will help newcomers, as well as seasoned practitioners and scholars, navigate classic debates and think beyond them too." -- Xavier de Souza Briggs, Senior Fellow, The Brookings Institution and co-author, Moving to Opportunity: The Story of an American Experiment to Fight Ghetto Poverty "For this new edition of The Affordable Housing Reader, editors Mueller and Tighe have assembled a superb collection of timely and essential essays by many of the field's leading scholars. The volume frames several key debates in affordable housing policy, including its objectives and the forms it should take. " -- Alex Schwartz, Housing Policy in the United States "Affordable housing is a notoriously complex field. This new edition of The Affordable Housing Reader offers an updated look at some key questions, such as how we define affordability, and the roles of race and community control in the field. It should give a substantial grounding to those who want to understand, and improve, American housing policy." -- Miriam Axel-Lute, CEO/Editor in Chief, Shelterforce

Synopsis
This second edition of The Affordable Housing Reader provides context for current discussions surrounding housing policy, emphasizing the values and assumptions underlying debates over strategies for ameliorating housing problems experienced by low-income residents and communities of color., This second edition of The Affordable Housing Reader provides context for current discussions surrounding housing policy, emphasizing the values and assumptions underlying debates over strategies for ameliorating housing problems experienced by low-income residents and communities of color. The authors highlighted in this updated volume address themes central to housing as an area of social policy and to understanding its particular meaning in the United States. These include the long history of racial exclusion and the role that public policy has played in racializing access to decent housing and well-serviced neighborhoods; the tension between the economic and social goals of housing policy; and the role that housing plays in various aspects of the lives of low- and moderate-income residents. Scholarship and the COVID-19 pandemic are raising awareness of the link between access to adequate housing and other rights and opportunities. This timely reader focuses attention on the results of past efforts and on the urgency of reframing the conversation. It is both an exciting time to teach students about the evolution of United States' housing policy and a challenging time to discuss what policymakers or practitioners can do to effect positive change. This reader is aimed at students, professors, researchers, and professionals of housing policy, public policy, and city planning.
