description | This paper, one of a series resulting from institutional analysis
of photovoltaic (PV) acceptance, provides a preliminary exploration of
governmental acitvities in the housing sector. It is based on theoretical
formulations and utilizes methods developed in an earlier paper in this
series. The housing process is examined in terms of seven institutional
functions -- finance, research, political, regulation, production, service,
and socialization -- from a governmental perspective. It is concluded
that the federal government is most active in providing for finance, research,
and political functions. State and local governments tend to perform the bulk
of the regulation functions, though recent trends show increased federal
involvement in large-scale regulation, through such mechanisms as the
Environmental Impact Statement. The production, service, and socialization
functions tend to be performed as a result of the direct realization of the
first four. |
