Social Policy and Housing: Reflections of Social Values SOCIAL POLICY AND HOUSING: REFLECTIONS OF SOCIAL VALUES JAMILEH MANOOCHEHRI Development Planning Unit University College London Ph.D. 2009 I, Jamileh Manoochehri, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. ……………………………….. Jamileh Manoochehri ABSTRACT This thesis set out to find the correlation between social values and standards in social housing in two major milestones in the developments in state-provided housing. The new spirit of optimism after the Second World War was developed by the latter part of the 1960s into the influential Parker Morris report. Having been commissioned by a Conservative Government in 1959 it was made obligatory for social housing in 1967 by the Labour Party in government. The post-war years that heralded the inception of the welfare state in Britain and are often referred to as the Consensus years, are investigated here and found to be centered on a social democratic agenda. In contrast with the above period, the post-1979 years became identified with their embrace of a liberal agenda, formulated by neo-liberal thinkers and politicians. This period which has the hallmarks of what has been referred to as a neo-liberal consensus was identified by the state efforts to reverse the social democratic agenda of the post-war years. Substantial social policy changes can be identified in the two contrasting periods, manifested particularly in the adoption of the universalist approach to social policy in the former with the selectivist approach in the latter period. This thesis investigates the factors that led to changes in standards in social housing in the two periods by searching for correlations between policy changes from universalism to selectivism and the dominant social values of the time. A number of housing estates were selected and the space and environmental standards in them were compared to verify the changes in standards. The political Party manifestos, policy documents, committee papers and recommendations were analysed to find indications of the state’s ideological stance at the given periods. The policy statements and social and housing policies were also analysed to find the correlation between the string of factors that lead from the state to the final built artefact in the form of social values, social policies, housing policies and social housing standards. In order to verify the findings of the research, semi-structured informal interviews were conducted with prominent actors in provision of social housing. In addition two housing estates were studied in detail as case studies of each period. The research found that the periods of ascendancy of social democratic ideology in the state, and social values based on the significance of the collective society and the equality of all citizens led to higher space standards in social housing, while the periods of ascendancy of neo-liberal ideology in the state, and social values based on the significance of individual action based on dominance of market relations led to a drop in social housing standards. A significant finding of this research was the importance of individual actors involved in the provision of social housing and their role in interpreting regulations in favour (or against) promoting higher or lower standards.

My deepest gratitude goes to my mother, the pillar of our lives, for her warm and selfless support for me and my family especially during the prolonged period of completion of this research, to my son Anoosheh and my daughter Mitra, the joys of my life for patiently sharing their mother’s attention with her research for most of their young lives, to my dear husband without whose invaluable support this endeavour would not have been possible and to my father for being a constant reminder of the value of human passion for knowledge. I am grateful to David Levitt and Neave Brown, whose interviews were a great pleasure as well as being immensely informative. In completing this research I enjoyed extensive co-operation from Directors of Levitt Bernstein Architects, who gave their time generously looking for information through their archives and for discussions. I am also grateful to Clive Clowes for giving his time generously for the interview. I would also like to thank my employers, Dr. Gerard Moran, Dean of Faculty of Art and Design at De Montfort University as well as Dr. Hassan Abdalla for allowing me sufficient study leave in the final months to complete this thesis.

    BLOCK PDH.102 HOUSING DEVELOPMENT: OVERVIEW AND CONSTRAINTS © UNISON FW/JI.09.03 UNISON Open College, 1 Mabledon Place, London WC1H 9AJ PDH.102: Housing Development - Overview and Constraints Preface This second block in the unit on housing development is intended to give you an overview of development opportunities and the constraints which govern housing developments. The first section covers housing design types, placing housing design and construction in their historical and social contexts. It also looks at some of the key economic and political factors which have affected housing development in Britain from the pre-1919 period through to the present day. The second section focuses on new build development and sets out the pros and cons of undertaking new build as opposed to other forms of development, as well as what sways developers towards new build schemes. There is a discussion of the relative costs, timescales and value for money of new build schemes as a way of understanding what is entailed. The section finishes off with a discussion of the opportunities for involving future residents in the design and development of new build schemes. The third section turns to the redevelopment of housing through rehabilitation, conversion and subdivison schemes. Following a similar format to the previous section, we look at the relative costs, timescales and value for money of new build schemes as a way of understanding what is entailed in these schemes. There is a brief section on tenant involvement, building on the discussion in the previous section on new build. The fourth section covers developing for groups with specific needs and begins with a general discussion of equal opportunities and development.

(Member of the War Cabinet and Chairman of the Ministerial Committee on Reconstruction Problems) Ieace will come with honour and victory. When it does come the people and the Government of this country will be faced with the special duty of reconstructing the fabric of our national, social and cultural life on a new and better pattern. It is my special responsibility to consider now, even when the people of this country are bearing the stresses and strains of war and the horrors of aerial bombardment with a fortitude that has amazed the world, what steps are necessary to produce an ordered social economy giving security to all. Within the framework of this larger pattern come the problems of physical reconstruction with which my colleague Lord Reith, as Minister of Works and Build­ ings, is specially concerned.

You have colonies of low income people, living in houses provided by the local authorities, and you have the higher income groups living in their own colonies. This segregation of the different income groups is a wholly evil thing, from a civilised point of view… We should try to introduce what was always the lovely feature of English and Welsh villages, where the doctor, the grocer, the butcher and the farm labourer all lived in the same street – the living tapestry of a mixed community.
