In How the Other Half Lives, New Yorkers read with horror that three-quarters of the residents of their city were housed in tenements and that in those tenements rents were substantially higher than in better sections of the city. In his book Riis gave a full and detailed picture of what life in those slums was like, how the slums were created, how and why they remained as they were, who was forced to live there, and offered suggestions for easing the lot of the poor. Riis originally documented all his studies with photographs. However, since the half-tone technique of photo reproduction had not been perfected, the original edition included mainly reductions in sketch-form of Riis' photographs. These could not begin to capture what Riis' sensitive camera caught on film. The anguish and the apathy, the toughness and the humiliation of the anonymous faces is all but obliterated in the sketches. This Dover edition includes fully 100 photographs, many famous, and many less familiar, from the Riis collection of the City Museum, and their inclusion here creates a closer conformity to Riis' intentions than did the original edition. Jacob Riis was one of the very few men who photographed the slums of New York at the turn of the century, when as many as 300,000 people per square mile were crowded into the tenements of New York's Lower East Side. The filth and degradation made the area a hell for the immigrants forced to live there. Riis was one of those immigrants, and, after years of abject poverty, when he became a police reporter for the New York Tribune, he exposed the shameful conditions of life with which he was all too familiar. Today, he is best remembered as a compassionate and effective reformer and as a pioneer photo-journalist.

"In the past, accounts of housing were dominated by the analysis of the problems of slum property at the bottom of the market, and the way in which public housing emerged from attempts to ameliorate the worst conditions, in an apparently inevitable process. This title questions this perception by focussing on the process of development, architectural forms, the pattern of ownership, property management and control, and public policy."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Vilvoorde City, meer bepaald in de Far-West bundelt de resultaten van het studieproject ‘Sociale huisvesting in Vlaams-Brabant’ in opdracht van het provinciebestuur. Het werd door Amsab-Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis uitgevoerd in het kader van het onderzoeksprogramma ‘Accenten uit de geschiedenis van Vlaams-Brabant’.Amsab-ISG koos voor een diepgaande studie van de wijk Far-West in Vilvoorde. De kern van deze buurt is de tuinwijk Maurits Duché. In 1921 gaf de sociale huisvestingsmaatschappij De Vilvoordse Haard de opdracht tot de bouw van een nieuwe wijk. Die ontwikkelde zich al snel tot een hechte gemeenschap waar cafés en sport een belangrijke plaats innamen.Tuinwijken waren zeer populair toen België na de Eerste Wereldoorlog oplossingen moest zoeken voor het ernstig woningtekort. Het idee kwam uit Engeland waar Ebenezer Howard in 1902 de term ‘tuinsteden’ introduceerde in zijn werk Garden Cities of To-Morrow. Vanuit een utopische visie pleitte hij voor nieuwe geplande steden omgeven door landbouwgebied en groen. Toen na de Eerste Wereldoorlog meer dan 100.000 huizen moesten worden heropgebouwd in België, zagen socialistisch en modernistisch geïnspireerde architecten het heil in tuinwijken, de afgeslankte versie van tuinsteden. De opdrachtgevers waren vooral coöperatieve huurdersverenigingen en sociale huisvestingsmaatschappijen.In drie hoofdstukken krijgt de lezer een historisch overzicht van het ontstaan van de Far-West tot de uitbreiding ervan vandaag. Het archiefmateriaal bood dikwijls verrassende details die het verleden weer springlevend maakten.De wijk is echter meer dan een geografische afbakening van een stuk grond. Het is ook een verzameling van persoonlijke ervaringen en geschiedenissen. Daarom bundelt het vierde hoofdstuk niet alleen herinneringen aan het leven in de wijk van vroeger, maar ook getuigenissen van jonge bewoners nu. Hierdoor werden zij actief betrokken bij de geschiedenis van de eigen wijk, die tenslotte nog steeds verder evolueert.Fotograaf Piet Janssens gaf zijn eigen interpretatie van het verhaal van de Far-West. Dat resulteerde in een kleurrijke reeks beelden.
