520 $a"Latin American and Caribbean countries are the most urban in the developing world and enjoy very high home ownership rates. But one look at the shantytowns clinging precariously to the hillsides around many of the region's cities is enough to know that poor housing remains a serious problem. This book taps new data sources and rigorous analytical methods as it examines the causes and consequences of inadequate housing. It then considers the policies and programs that shape the sector today and those that could reshape the future for many of the region's residents"--$cProvided by publisher.
