Urban Homesteading Catalogue: Volume 3: Background and History of Urban Homesteading. Demonstration Program Descriptions
This final volume of a catalog that has issued from the efforts of 23 demonstration cities to implement an urban homesteading program under the Federal Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 examines the broad concept and practice of homesteading as a mechanism to encourage settlement or, in the case of urban homesteading, resettlement of selected areas. The historical context of the Urban Homesteading Demonstration Program is traced from experiments in homesteading undertaken by local governments in the early 1970's. Federal legislation culminated in Section 810 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. Homesteading efforts on the American frontier and the concept of subsistence homesteading are considered in relation to the design of the Urban Homesteading Demonstration. Complete descriptions of the local homesteading programs in each of the 23 demonstration cities include background information and an overview of the operational procedures and administrative structure. These descriptions correspond to the key elements of program design discussed in the other volumes, but the focus here is on the entire working program in a particular city. (Author abstract modified).
