Housing

"Housing: The Growth of State Interest and Control and What it may Lead to" is a compelling lecture delivered before The Royal Philosophical Society of Glasgow in 1920 by William Edward Whyte. This insightful work delves into the burgeoning interest and control exerted by the state over housing, exploring the potential ramifications of such involvement.

Whyte's lecture offers a historical perspective on the evolution of housing policies and urban development, providing a valuable analysis of the shifting dynamics between governmental oversight and societal needs. This edition makes Whyte's early observations available to a modern audience, offering important insights into the ongoing debates surrounding housing, urban planning, and the role of the state.
