Housing and Social Theory Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Studies in housing have often concentrated on an abstract institutionalised approach isolated from the broader base of the social sciences.

This book is the first to treat housing as a subject of social theory.

It provides a critique of current research and theorises housing in relation to political science, social change and welfare developing a case study to illustrate these applications.

By being sometimes controversial, this book will stimulate debate among housing theorists and sociologists alike. The Author is currently Senior Research fellow at the Swedish Institute for Building Research and Docent in Sociology at Uppsala University.

He has written widely on Housing, Urban Studies and Sociology and his books include THE MYTH OF HOME OWNERSHIP and THE GREAT AUSTRALIAN NIGHTMARE.
