Beschreibung
The growing literature on comparative European housing policy has played a major part in developing our understanding of the way housing in provided in different countries, and in the way the interaction between the stat, market and civil society is conceptualized. However, much of this analysis is rooted without question in the welfare states of northern Europe - there has been almost no research published in English on the provision of housing in southern Europe. Such research as exists deals with specific feature of housing policy, invariably in a single country. There is probably a better understanding of the housing systems of the former communist countries than those of southern Europe.
Rezensionen
"
[The book has] an approach that locates housing in a far wider context than housing policies and population numbers; an effective combination of statistical and other information with theoretically informed analysis; and a coherent and well argued presentation. Overall Judith Allen and her co-authors have made a considerable contribution to the housing studies literature; for anyone interested in comparative housing studies - students and seasoned researchers alike - this is a must-read book."
"An important contribution to the theoretical literature on international comparative housing research."
"An interesting analysis of housing in the context of welfare policy models in southern Europe and a welcome addition to a bibliography which does not increase rapidly."
"Fills a gap in the literature on comparative European housing policy. throws a new light on difficult social and housing policy issues throughout Europe."
'The work is a rigorous, comparative and well- documented analysis of housing provision in Southern European countries. The book is extremely useful for researchers, students and policymakers who want to take advantage of some of the best approaches to housing and the welfare state through the perspective of the differences between North and South.'
"An easy to absorb style and yet it still provides for good robust academic analysis....[the book] provides a wealth of information and, particularly for students, it enables the reader to access a valuable body of research through their analysis of well referenced sociological models."
'The book opens up new ways of developing research and improving our knowledge in order to contribute to a better design of housing policies across Europe.'
