Modernization and change in social housing : the case for an organizational perspective - 2001
It is argued that past approaches to the research of housing policy and housing organizations are now inadequate and unable to provide a clear explanation of modernization and change. the modernization of social housing is associated with changing core organizational competencies and the movement towards a variety of partnership approaches. In response we develop a tripartite theoretical framework base around new institutional economics, strategic management and institutional theory. An explanatory review of the evidence at a sectoral level (examining social housing as a field, regulation and the profession) and the organizational level (focusing upon changing organization behaviour) is used to illustrate the legitimancy of this approach. In conclusion a research agenda is outlined
