Ordered Logistic Regression

Social housing projects often face the “not-in-my-back-yard” (NIMBY) backlash from the local community who oppose and reject their construction. Considering the prevalence of NIMBY, this study examines the factors that influence the attitude of the public towards social housing construction under high home ownership rates. We conduct an ordered logistic regression analysis by using 14,275 responses from the 2015 Residential Status Survey in Taiwan. The results show some interesting findings. First, home ownership and families with a child under 18 are two of the most influential variables that have significantly negative influences on the approval of social housing construction. Renters and people with physical and mental disabilities are however more supportive of social housing. Secondly, residents in buildings with high development intensity are very supportive of the construction of social housing. Thirdly, satisfaction with neighborhood environment has a positive impact on social housing approval. Finally, residents who live in dense cities tend to support the construction of social housing. However, residents who live in satellite cities of a metropolitan region are less supportive. The results of this study reveal a regional difference in the approval of residents for social housing construction.

The Government

ABSTRACTAfter more than twenty years of low housing construction output, the housing policy recovered its momentum in the country with the ascent of the Partido dos Trabalhadores (Workers' Party, PT) to the seat of the federal government. This article demonstrates - through the analysis of documents, interviews and research conducted with businessmen - that the impetus of such a state policy is a part of the PT electoral strategy, which is based on economic growth and the expansion of social programs. The research analyses the dovetailing of interests between the Lula (the Brazilian President from 2003 to 2010) administration and the civil construction business - the latter concerned with expanding its business, and the former with increasing the supply of jobs and the level of economic activity. This process culminated in the launching of the largest social housing program to be implemented in the country. Minha Casa, Minha Vida (My House, My Life), is a project in whose planning building companies played a key role, performing feasibility studies and carrying out social housing projects.

Este trabalho debate a natureza e as contradições da política nacional de habitação popular, a partir de um viés histórico no Brasil, perpassando por mudanças recentes, desencadeando mais recentemente, no programa de construção de moradias denominado Programa Minha Casa Minha Vida (PMCMV). Para isso, analisamos empiricamente o município de São Lourenço da Mata, localizado na Zona Oeste da Região Metropolitana do Recife (RMR), cujos investimentos para receber jogos da Copa das Confederações e do Mundo, impulsionaram o crescimento imobiliário e a atuação das construtoras, com a anuência das três esferas governamentais (municipal, estadual e federal). Diante disso e a partir do levantamento em órgãos públicos e privados, entre os anos de 2008 e 2015, juntamente com o trabalho de campo, retratamos os empreendimentos subsidiados pelo PMCMV, suas principais características e as respectivas contradições no que concerne ao espaço geográfico local.AbstractThis paper discusses the nature and contradictions of national social housing policy from a historical bias in Brazil, passing by recent changes, triggering more recently, the housing construction program known as Minha Casa Minha Vida (PMCMV).

Therefore, and from the survey of public and private agencies, between the years 2008 and 2015, along with the field work, we depict the projects subsidized by PMCMV, its main characteristics and their contradictions with respect to the local geographical area.Keywords:Public Policy; Housing; Urban Projects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of public investment programs on the socio-economic development of territories. As a case, the federal target programs for the development of regions and investment programs of the financial development institution — Vnesheconombank, designed to solve the problems of regional development are considered. The impact of the public interventions were evaluated by the “difference in differences” method using Bayesian modeling. The results of the evaluation suggest the positive impact of federal target programs on the total factor productivity of regions and on innovation; and that regional investment programs of Vnesheconombank are improving the export activity. All of the investments considered are likely to have contributed to the reduction of unemployment, but their implementation has been accompanied by an increase in social inequality.

In Vitruvius’ treatise, what makes good architecture is its ability to communicate to the public particular messages that reflects the program of the building with spaces and components arranged in an orderly way. According to Vitruvius these messages when acknowledges by the public the building posses strong character. This research discusses this idea by reflecting on the 1895 competition of the Egyptian Museum project. Marcel Dourgnon, the French architect of the winning scheme, showed profound understanding of character resulting in a building that had positive vibe with the local community.  Today Vitruvius’ idea is still living with us. Norman Foster succeeded in upgrading the British Museum in a way that addressed all cultures of the world through his grand atrium design.  Similarly, Emad Farid and Ramez Azmy revived the presence of the Egyptian Museum in public cognition.  Spatial experience that evokes similar perceptions to all its visitors is a timeless piece that transcends cultural boundaries.

Pruitt-Igoe, in St Louis, Missouri, United States, was one of the most notorious social housing projects of the twentieth century. Charles Jencks argued opening his book The Language of Post-Modern Architecture, ‘Modern Architecture died in St Louis, Missouri on July 15, 1972 at 3.32 pm (or thereabouts) when the infamous Pruitt-Igoe scheme, or rather several of its slab blocks, were given the final coup de grâce by dynamite.’ However, the magazine Architectural Forum had heralded the project as ‘the best high apartment’ of the year in 1951. Indeed, one of its first residents in 1957 described Pruitt-Igoe as ‘like an oasis in a desert, all of this newness’. But a later resident derided the housing project as ‘Hell on Earth’ in 1967. Only eighteen years after opening, the St Louis Public Housing Authority (PHA) began demolishing Pruitt-Igoe in 1972 [1]. It remains commonly cited for the failures of modernist design and planning.

In 1990, the Ford Foundation launched the Neighborhood and Family Initiative Project (NFI) in four U.S. cities. A low-income neighborhood in each of the four cities is the target for the initiative, which is administered through a local community foundation in each city. The initiative relies on neighborhood leadership to develop strategic plans which reflect the goals and aspirations of neighborhood residents and institutions. A collaborative, or committee, composed of neighborhood leaders and key representatives from the public and private sectors is charged with overseeing the planning process.
