| Summary |
This book examines and discusses key contemporary housing issues in the context of today's globalized housing systems. The book takes up the challenge of developing a new paradigm, working towards the possibility of an alternative future. Revolving around three constellations of writing by diverse contributors, each chapter sets out a clear and developed approach to contemporary housing issues. The major themes considered are: the crisis in mortgage market regulation; housing rights; and an examination of responses to the decline and regeneration of inner cities, legal issues around squatting. |
