From a settler history to an African present: housing markets in Harare, Zimbabwe

Auteur :
RAKODI, C.

Description :
Although the public sector accepts responsibility for satisfying low-income housing needs by supplying serviced plots, this bureaucratic supply is quantatively inadequate and not affordable for many. The analysis reveals penetration of market forces into public housing areas through the large-scale provision of rooms for rent and limited exchange of houses. Explanations for trends in property development and prices are sought.
