Housing Needs and Policy Approaches
Drawing upon research from six continents, Housing Needs and Policy Approaches analyzes the social problems involved with providing housing in the industrialized nations and in the Third World. The book focuses on four areas of concern: current trends in housing in specific Western countries, the role of Western governments in creating this housing, housing provisions in less developed nations, and the relationship of societal structure and housi…

The social pattern of personal geographies
Collison P. and Kennedy J. (1981) The social pattern of personal geographies, Reg. Studies 15, 247–262. It is commonly observed that people in modern societies are geographically mobile.

National Insurance Local Tribunals
Tribunals, now recognized as key institutions of the Welfare State, are attracting a good deal of attention. Despite a growing volume of criticism little systematic research has been undertaken into the way they actually function. Since almost every British citizen has rights of appeal to national insurance local tribunals (NILTs) it would seem that they constitute a good starting point. An earlier article presented a general view of NILTs. This …

National Insurance Local Tribunals
Tribunals are at the centre of a growing controversy concerning citizen rights in welfare. In the first of two articles, attention is drawn to some of the salient features of this controversy and particularly to those aspects concerning national insurance local tribunals (NILTs). A special analysis of D.H.S.S. records is presented giving a picture of the distribution of the work of NILTs over different benefit categories, of success rates, of the…

University Chancellors, Vice-Chancellors and College Principals
The careers of chancellors and vice-chancellors of British universities and of the principals of colleges at Oxbridge, London and Wales, are analysed by the use of data drawn mainly from Who's Who. Those who hold these posts play an important part in the relationship of universities with the government and other sections of society; moreover the administrative responsibilities of vice-chancellors have grown rapidly in recent years. Changes over t…
Immigrants and Residence
Measures are provided for Oxford of the residential segregation of various groups defined by birthplace. West Indians are shown to be the most segregated and the most dissimilar in area of residence to the Natives. Overall, however, it is suggested that the society has proved very open in the matter of residence and will tend even more in this direction if and when immigrants obtain access to council housing. 'Foreign' groups as a whole seem adva…

Occupation, Education, and Housing in an English City
By means of census tracts, an analysis is made in Oxford, England, of the residential dissimilarity and segregation of the groups of occupations and of the male working force by terminal age of education. With some exceptions, differences in social status between the occupations are paralleled by differences in residential dissimilarity, residential segregation being particularly marked among the groups with the highest status; as are also differ…
Residence and Social Class in Oxford
Oxford, a university and motor-manufacturing town with 100,000 people in 1951, and the first city of England to be tracted, has thirty-five tracts. These are here regrouped into five sectors, and each sector is further divided into three zones based on distance from the city center. In contrast to the usual ecological pattern of American cities, people of the highest social class live closest to the center of the town. They are also heavily conce…
