Institution:

College of Charleston

Subject:

Political Science

Description:

Housing provides the foundation for many aspects of a healthy and fulfilling life and links citizens and families to education, jobs, transportation, community networks, and myriad public and private opportunities and services. Housing policy, like welfare, health, education, and other social policy arenas, is undergoing a period of fundamental reexamination and debate. Not only is the implementation of housing policy at issue, the very objectives and need for housing policy is itself in question. This course is designed to provide the background necessary to become informed participants in this debate over the future of U.S. housing policy and to develop conceptual tools necessary to formulate and implement housing policy. The course will involve a combination of lectures, class debates, assignments, and projects. It is absolutely essential to have read the required readings before each class session, and students are expected to be full and consistent participants in class discussions.
