Social housing houses homeless people and overcrowded families, replacing ‘slum’ conditions. The book is in four parts. Part I explores the origins and history of housing, provided at a low cost for the public good, with radical social reformers organising housing linked to work, childcare, education, and elderly care. Council housing grew rapidly between World War I and the 1970s, with many large estates becoming problematic. Part II explains what went wrong with the vision of decent, affordable homes for all and describes ways forward. Part III covers New Labour targets for the poorest neighbourhoods and the impact on housing and communities, as well as national urban decline and environmental damage. In Part IV, the focus shifts away from a universal welfare state toward a more individualised self-help approach and shows how social landlords responded to a radically changed and reduced social policy environment. The conclusion is that the only practical way to make low-cost renting work for both tenants and landlords is to deliver local, ground-level, hands-on management of rented housing. The gains from maintaining and managing existing properties far outweigh demolition and rebuilding. Social landlords own over four million homes. By sheltering and supporting the poorest communities, they became key players in our cities, towns, and villages. Their record, documented in Beyond Bricks and Mortar, underlines the vital role they play in Britain.","PeriodicalId":47631,"journal":{"name":"Policy and Politics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147913630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Darrow had several experiences that transformed and propelled him to become a significant political force for social reform, working to abolish the death penalty and the prison system more generally. In particular, his move to Chicago and his encounter with John Altgeld (1847–1902) were consequential. Darrow was his protégé and then his successor, carrying the mantle of reform and calls for selective abolition. In Chicago, Darrow witnessed firsthand the injustices visited upon the poor and mentally ill as they became entrapped in the maw of the bloody system of policing and incarceration. Darrow lost only one capital case: his first. He spent the next five decades seeking to make the criminal justice system more humane and more restorative, and not about state-sanctioned incarceration and murder. This chapter concludes by exploring how the radical visions and pragmatic proposals of Altgeld and Darrow can provide inspiration for contemporary reformers and penal abolitionists.","PeriodicalId":47631,"journal":{"name":"Policy and Politics","volume":"1 1","pages":"259-275"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147894453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
