how to attract more Landlords to the housing choice voucher program a case study of Landlord outreach efforts
Urban Research & Practice, 2016Co-Authors: David P Varady, Joseph Jaroscak, Reinout KleinhansAbstract:Since 1980, the focus of American housing policy has shifted away from project-based to tenant-based subsidies, i.e. the Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCVP). Yet many HCVP recipients have remained in high-poverty and high-minority areas of central cities. To improve the effectiveness of HCVP in expanding residential choices, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is encouraging local public housing authorities to utilize a variety of techniques to provide more opportunity for voucher recipients to move to low poverty areas including meetings with current or prospective owners, owners’ newsletters, owner fairs, program videos and direct contact with owners. Although there has been a considerable body of research on voucher recipients in the Gautreaux and Moving to Opportunity programs, two special housing voucher programs, there has been little research on the effectiveness of Landlord outreach efforts as part of the regular HCVP. We therefore conducted a case study of Landlord outreach ef...

the Landlord class peasant differentiation class struggle and the transition to capitalism england france and prussia compared
The Journal of Peasant Studies, 2009Co-Authors: Terence J ByresAbstract:The three examples considered – England, France and Prussia – are all very important instances of capitalist agrarian transformation. They illustrate, moreover, strikingly different paths of agrarian transition. These are termed, respectively, Landlord-mediated capitalism from below, capitalism delayed, and capitalism from above, and an explanation is offered of how these different outcomes came to pass and of why there was such a marked divergence in the nature of agrarian transition. It is argued that the character of the Landlord class and of class struggle have determined both the timing of each transition and the nature of the transition. Both the quality of the Landlord class and the manner and outcome of the class struggle have sometimes delayed, perhaps for prolonged periods, and sometimes hastened transition; and have had profound implications for the nature and quality of the transformation and how reactionary or progressive it has been. In this the state has always played a prominent part. It i...

Landlordism and Landlord tenant relations in kisumu and kitale s low income settlements
International Journal of Urban Sustainable Development, 2017Co-Authors: Shaun SmithAbstract:This article concerns the nature of Landlordism and Landlord–tenant relations in Kenya’s smaller towns and cities and takes as its case studies Kisumu and Kitale. There is a pressing need to understand the variable ways in which rental tenure is produced in low-income areas and the interaction between inequality and the private provision of housing. This article contends that rental tenure has a long and complex history in Kenyan cities and remains the dominant mode of housing production in low-income areas. The article critically examines the ways in which different forms of Landlordism, such as absentee Landlordism, have different connotations when applied to smaller Kenyan town and cities. Moreover, the article analyses the symbiotic relationship between Landlords and tenants, particularly regarding tensions surrounding the extraction of rent. Lastly, the wider socio-spatial significance of Landlordism is discussed through an examination of the significance of life-quality differences between Landlords...
