DOES URBAN PUBLIC HOUSING DIMINISH THE SOCIAL CAPITAL AND LABOR FORCE ACTIVITY OF ITS TENANTS?
D. A. Reingold, G. V. van Ryzin, and M. Ronda Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, vol. 20, 2001, p. 485-504 Paper investigates the effect of US urban public housing on the social capital and labour force activity of its tenants using cross-sectional survey data from the Multi-City Study of Urban Inequality. Results show that neighbourhood disadvantage, not public housing, is the more important determinant of lack of social capital and labour force activity among low-income families. Even this has relatively small direct effects on social capital and labour force activity compared to other factors such as work experience, the presence of children and health status.
