Through the lens of political economy, this book positions housing
as a key factor in understanding social inequality. It does so by
drawing on rich empirical evidence from the case of the Chilean
housing market. This book provides insights on the articulation
between real estate development, housing provision and social
inequality based on applied urban economics analyses that
illustrate the contradictions of neoliberal urbanism through the
case of Chile. For neoliberal urbanism, the good city is not equal
for all, it is based on the principle of profitability and benefits
from segregation to make capital investment more efficient. The
chapters of this book expose how these processes are generated by a
political system that allows them rather than by the invisible hand
of the market. The book will be of interest to graduate students in
urban studies, urban planning, sociology and urban geography. It
will also appeal to decision-makers and also to actors in the real
estate market seeking to perfect the social benefits of their
professional activities, aspiring to generate more egalitarian and
just cities.
