Abstract

In a recent paper, we argued for the need to develop an understanding of property development processes which combines a sensitivity to the economic and social framing of development strategies with a fine-grain treatment of the locally contingent responses of property actors. This is a response to Ball's criticisms of that paper, which offer a misleading characterisation of our methodological and theoretical position with regard to property research.
