. The results suggest that there is a gentrification effect from green buildings. However, each additional ‘‘green’’ building decreases the marginal effect of certification in the rental and transaction markets by 2 per cent and 5 per cent respectively
This paper documents that, over the 2000–09 period, the expanding supply of green buildings within a given London neighbourhood had a positive impact on average rents and prices, but reduced rents and prices for environmentally certified real estate
Explaining and interpreting ideological effects : a rhetorical approach to green belts
England ; Environment conservation ; Green belt ; Ideology ; United Kingdom
Partant de la « rhétorique de la rationalité partielle », propre au discours politique, les AA. passent au crible un discours sur les green belts. Ils en analysent les effets idéologiques comme leviers de compréhension des participants.
Green Revolution technologies reconsidered. Another view. The Ethiopian example
The societal modes of distribution are important components of the institutional setting in every society. On the basis of an example from Ethiopia, the socio-political effects induced by the technologies applied during the Green Revolution

Self-provided housing is often a major element in the expansion of European metropoles and it is not associated with backwardness, peripherality, or lack of market development. It lowers the money cost of housing and ensures higher quality

examples: the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor and green economy initiatives in Brazil. These suggest that, if the green economy is to address global challenges effectively, it must be conceptualized as more than a bolt-on to existing globalizing capitalism
This article examines recent institutional thinking on the green economy and the implications of official understandings and structuration of a green economy for the global South. The analysis is substantiated through two illustrative Latin American

Estimating neighbourhood effects in house prices : towards a new hedonic model approach
Hedonistic model ; Hong Kong ; Housing ; Housing cost ; Housing market ; Location ; Neighbourhood ; Residential environment
A modification is made to multiple regression analysis based on the land-rent concept so that the modified hedonic house price function can be determined. The paper develops a stochastic approach which is able to correct autocorrelation bias
in the hedonic function. The sample is orientated by location to reflect the neighbourhood effects. They can thus be separated from the random disturbance. The stochastic model, using data from Hong Kong, is a more flexible application of hedonic price

This paper discusses the rationale behind rent control and analyses its effects using a capital theory framework in combination with traditional bid rent analysis. The hypothesis is that in addition to the reasons given by others authors, rent
control is a substitute for public housing spending.

Conjoint models of housing preferences derive preference functions from consumer responses to profiles of housing attributes generated experimentally. It is not evident how such housing preferences can be used to simulate actual housing choice
. The AA. provide conceptual considerations to link conjoint preferences to actual behaviour and discuss the principles of a simulation model. They illustrate the approach using the effects of a rental subsidy on potential mobility.

The study aimed to quantify short and medium-term effects of the sale of public housing units to tenants with respect to consequences for the users and the use of the sold units and also with respect to aspects of management of the remaining public

In the second half of the 1980s the United Kingdom experienced a widening of house-price differentials between the South and the North. This paper examines the view that the pattern of house-price differentials resembles a ripple effect, using long
