Residential vertical urbanisation
‘Vertical urbanisation’, a new form of housing densification, has accelerated in the 21st century and now dominates the skylines of many global cities. Tall residential buildings are more complex than lower-rise multi-occupied buildings due to their sophisticated infrastructures and technologies, co-dependent spatial relationships, mixed uses and density of occupation. They are also more legally complex, especially when individual units are sold …
The Properties of Self-Managed Collective Housing
This article explores the relationship between property, law and everyday life in two self-managed collective housing sites in England, a housing co-operative and a co-housing development. In each of these sites the residents are bound together by a property law framework, by their built environment and by the spaces they share and manage. The residents are developing alternative legalities, their own informal norms and non-legally enforceable ru…
The Dynamics of Enduring Property Relationships in Land
This article proposes a new way of looking at property relationships that will enrich our understanding of how they operate. It focuses on property rights in land which are consensual in origin, although this approach could usefully be applied both to non‐consensual property relationships and to other property types. Recognising both the temporal and spatial dimensions of land, the dynamics approach reflects the fact that most property relationsh…
Beyond Privatopia
Evan MacKenzie, Washington DC, Urban Institute Press, 2011, 147 pp., $24.99 (pbk) ISBN 9780877667698 In Privatotopia, Evan McKenzie's earlier book on this subject, he traced the development of lega
The Right to Buy
This paper examines the development of the Right to Buy, introduced by the Housing Act 1980, from the standpoint of governmentality, risk and responsibilization. Our focus is on the risks not only to the purchasers but also to local authorities and to those tenants who have not purchased their homes. We trace how these risks have been assessed, allocated and rebranded, by central government, by local authorities as landlords with wider responsibi…
Curbing the power of developers? Law and power in Chinese and English gated urban enclaves
Law, Boundaries and the Production of Space
This special issue addresses the problematic nature of space, whether psychic, symbolic or material, from an inter-disciplinary standpoint. The diverse articles are concerned with legal, psychical, cultural, social and political boundaries. Spaces with legal meanings are the product of such boundaries, and the relation of law and space as explored by the legal geography literature underpins this collection, which investigates these issues at a ra…
La peur de la délinquance et du désordre et l'extension des quartiers résidentiels sécurisés en Angleterre
Cet article traite la question de l’extension, dans le monde entier, des quartiers résidentiels sécurisés et, par rapport aux questions actuelles de la délinquance et du désordre il porte particulièrement son attention sur certains quartiers résidentiels sécurisés enAngleterre. S’appuyant sur une recherche empirique, l’article pose la question de l’efficacité des communautés sécurisées pour lutter contre ces problèmes, et met en évidence lesimpli…
A Picture of the Floating World
A quarter century of financial deregulation, robber‐baron corporatism and growing income polarisation has enabled the spatial partitioning of urban space into new and complex arrangements of micro‐neighbourhood governance and privatism. These archipelagos of fortress homes and neighbourhoods increasingly lie outside the spaces of conventional state and city government. Yet while residential spaces of urban affluence have been unable to fully remo…
Incivilities
Oxford : Hart ( 2006 ) 304pp. £37.00hb ISBN 978-1-8411-3499-4 This edited collection is the product of two inter-disciplinary colloquia on the subject of incivilities, held in Cambridge in 2002 and 2003. Amongst the eleven contributors are philosophers, criminologists, a sociologist, and penal theorists. The editors say in their brief preface that their aim was to explore principles that might define and limit the scope of what they term ‘quality…
Researching the Judiciary
From introduction: This paper concerns the the processes involved in developing a study method appropriate to exploring the way in which judicial discretion is exercised in the County Court. The specific context is possession cases brought against the tenant of social landlords on the grounds of rent arrears. The work is based on an empirical project commissioned by the Department of Constitutional Affairs (DCA) in the spring of 2004
Panic Rooms
This paper documents how and attempts to explain why homeowners have adopted an increasingly strategic approach to the defence of the home and the progressively vengeful pursuit of those who invade the home. This approach has been articulated via the political process as well as through a media ‘conversation’ that form a milieu within which defensive homeownership has emerged. It is suggested that a threshold has been crossed marking a transforma…
Gated communities in England
Theorising Power Relationships in Multi-owned Residential Developments
This article foregrounds the complex connections between property and law in the multi-owned residential sites which are becoming increasingly common in many countries. Empirical research into intensive housing developments in New Zealand and gated communities in England found that, despite differences in legal structures, individual owners often expressed frustration at their lack of control over the on-going management of such developments. Thi…
Gated Communities
Gated communities are becoming increasingly common across England, yet very little is known about the impact these developments have upon the residents of the wider community or those within the confines of the gates. This paper draws on empirical research carried out in a gated community in the north of England to explore social ties amongst the residents, in the presence of a legal framework (lease and residents' management company) which provi…

Gated communities in England
The number of private gated developments continues to grow in Britain, in apparent contradiction to the government's urban policy aims of developing balanced, sustainable, mixed communities. There has been no official recognition of the trend towards gated communities, nor any national debate about their desirability as a built or social form. Contradictory guidance is given to local authorities about the design priorities for new housing develop…

Reforming Leasehold
This article uses discourse analysis to explore and explain the limits of ongoing efforts to resolve the problems experienced by long leaseholders living in private flats in England and Wales. Attention is focused on the position of leasehold within the three discourses of property law, housing, and housing law, as revealed through the language used in legislation, consultation papers, Law Commission reports, political statements, media represent…
From Tenure to Rights
This paper suggests a new way of conceptualizing tenure as a series of discourses that comprise respectively: (a) property law; (b) housing policy; and (c) housing status. Housing research has generally focused on housing policy discourse in a way that obscures legal relationships. In contrast, a focus on property and housing status has greater potential to make explicit the rights and obligations that arise in different situations. The ?bundle o…
