Actions and interactions: social relationships in a low-income housing estate in Kitale, Kenya

Muller, M.S. (1975)

Doctoral Thesis

Focuses upon social interaction patterns in the Housing Estate of Kitale (Kenya). The inhabitants of this low income Housing Estate are sensitive to the same kind of spatial characteristics of housing as are people living under similar conditions in other societies. Both their economic and housing circumstances impose a strain on daily life. The inhabitants react to these circumstances by developing patterns of expectations and behaviour vis-…-vis their neighbours which resemble those of their counterparts elsewhere, despite the cultural and economic differences between societies
