Abstract
The significance of spatially fixed capital invested in property is stressed. Use value and exchange value, with the latter being more important, characterise the commercial property market. The nature of the post-war provision of commercial floorspace and the role of the specialist property development companies and financial institutions are discussed. Banks and overseas investors now dominate the UK property market, and their policies are tending to perpetuate regional inequalities as well as restricting the supply of commercial floorspace in many parts of the UK. -D.G.Price
