Public Housing Supply And Local Governments' Behaviors

Housing problem is globally recognized, and the kernel of the problem was insufficient housing consumption capacity of residents. This viewpoint implies the fact that a great gulf lay between the payment capability of large number of low-income families and the appropriate standards of housing prices, This is not only the crux of the problem of housing, but also the root causes of public housing problem. Because of that, Governments intervene in the housing market. So governments, at all levels, almost all around the world provide policy support in varying degrees for the supply of housing to help the low-income families solve the housing problem. No country, which includes both developed, or the relatively backward economies of developing countries, of all members of society realize their aspirations of living through the purchase of housing. There are always some residents whose housing problems need to be resolved with the help of all the countries around the world there are a part of the social security system established by government. In other words, all government developed public housing.In a market economy, the effectiveness of public housing supply depends on the behavior of local governments. On the one hand, local governments of our country is a link in national administrative sequence, on the other hand, they are responsible for the investment and protection of local economy. This dual role makes the local government s live in the special status in the supply of public good. Because they are not only the executives of the central government, but also act out the role of the dominating in regional public goods supply. I brought by this thesis local government's behavior into the process of public housing supply, and selected Shenzhen as a case, to inspect local government's behaviors in the process of public housing supply. Through the analysis of the theory of local government's public housing and Shenzhen City's public housing supply, I figure out the factors, which mainly influence the supply local government's public housing supply. Finally, I tried to put forward optimization measures of China's local governments of the public housing supply by comparing the behaviors of domestic and foreign local governments in promoting the supply of public housing.
