Title: Institutions and Governance Networks in Housing and Urban Regeneration
Abstract: Housing and urban regeneration have moved beyond 'bricks and mortar' approaches and now often entail social and economic initiatives. Governments are increasingly retreating from direct involvement in housing and urban regeneration. In many cases, they no longer have the power or the resources to determine the outcomes of housing and urban regeneration decision-making processes. Consequently, more private actors and resources are needed to formulate and deliver housing and urban regeneration policies. Traditional hierarchical steering by the state is replaced by market competition and more interactive, networked forms of governance. This article presents a framework to explore these institutional developments and governance issues and discusses the emergence, the characteristics, and the strengths and weaknesses of governance networks.
