| Book Description | In Urban Land Rent , Anne Haila uses Singapore as a case study to develop an original theory of urban land rent with important implications for urban studies and urban theory. Provides a comprehensive analysis of land, rent theory, and the modern city Examines the question of land from a variety of perspectives: as a resource, ideologies, interventions in the land market, actors in the land market, the global scope of land markets, and investments in land Details the Asian development state model, historical and contemporary land regimes, public housing models, and the development industry for Singapore and several other cities Incorporates discussion of the modern real estate market, with reference to real estate investment trusts, sovereign wealth funds investing in real estate, and the fusion between sophisticated financial instruments and real estate |
| Editorial Review | The role of land and property markets in recent economic crises has clearly been significant. It also seems as if capitalism is trending towards more and more rentier as opposed to productive activities. Yet there is surprisingly little written on the subject. Haila's book remedies this lack and comes at a very opportune moment. This is a must-read for anyone concerned with contemporary economic conditions and trends.' - David Harvey, Distinguished Professor of Anthropology and Geography, City University of New York (CUNY) 'By placing Singapore's policies and practices within a coherent analytic framework of concepts, ideologies and practices of 'land' and 'rent', this book takes Singapore out of the realm of a 'unique' case and places it in the larger and historically deeper arena of conceptual debates in the political economy of land, property ownership and rent. Haila simultaneously provides the political economists of land with a substantive case which has seemingly solved much of the conceptual issues pragmatically.' - Professor Chua Beng Huat, Department of Sociology, National University of Singapore |
