INTERACTIONS BETWEEN FORMAL AND INFORMAL PROPERTY MARKETS IN HOUSING SUB-MARKETS OF INDIAN CITIES

城市扩张地图集估计，印度城市30-40%的土地被“非正式分区”占用（Angel等，2016）。本研究旨在探讨发展的非正式性质影响整个城市的几个利益相关者的活动，而不仅仅是非正式财产的所有者和使用者。鉴于发展中城市的非正式住区规模庞大，正式和非正式房地产市场不可能不相互作用和影响，因此研究和理解它们如何相互作用非常重要。该提案的结构如下：第二部分讨论了关于正式和非正式房地产市场的现有文献，概述了迄今为止可用的关键定义、概念和经验。本节还试图确定本研究的必要性。第三部分探讨了可以沿着确定的研究差距在研究中发展的主要主题。第四部分论述了博士研究的目标和研究问题。第五部分简要概述了可用于解决第3节中描述的可能的研究主题和研究的地理范围的方法。

The Atlas of Urban Expansion estimates that 30-40% of land in Indian cities is occupied by "informal subdivisions" (Angel, et al., 2016). This research proposes to explore the idea that informal nature of development affects activities of several stakeholders across the city, not just the owner and user of the informal property. Given the large scale of informal settlements across developing cities, it is unlikely that formal and informal property markets do not interact and impact each other, making it important to study and understand how they interact. The proposal is structured in the following manner:1. The second section discusses the existing literature about formal and informal real estate markets, outlining the key definitions, concepts, and learnings available so far. The section also tries to establish the need for this research.2. The third section explores the principal themes which can be developed in the research along the identified research gaps.3. The fourth section discusses the objectives and research questions of the proposed PhD research.4. The fifth section briefly outlines the methodologies that can be used to address the possible research themes described in section 3 and the geographical scope of the study.
