Synopsis
Based on intensive documentary research, this is the first full-scale study of the politics of the slum question in England between the world wars, and of associated policy and practice in the fields of housing and town planning. It is the second volume in a trilogy which began with Slums and Slum Clearance (Allen & Unwin 1986) and which is completed with a third volume covering the period since 1945.
