Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given
area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject
in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of
travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Housing issues have
become a defining feature of our time. The capacity to affordably,
securely, and sustainably house a growing, urbanizing population
has become a pressing issue for policy makers worldwide. A Research
Agenda for Housing sets the tone for debates relating to housing,
featuring cutting-edge research from leading and emerging scholars.
This impressive work seeks to understand the complexity of housing
through the lens of its most pertinent debates. Using examples and
case studies from around the world, the contributors tackle housing
rights, financialization, mortgage markets, public housing,
sustainability, and affordability policies, considering housing in
its larger societal and historical contexts. With a strong focus on
the practical implications of housing research, this diverse book
takes a critical approach to housing research, seeking to dissect
and understand the nuances of homeownership, renting, liveability
and vulnerability in the 21st century. Featuring a broad summary of
the state of knowledge of housing, this book is vital reading for
both established scholars and graduates of urban studies and
planning in need of an overview of the current state of housing
research. Public policy makers from across the world will also
benefit from the policy implications and recommendations provided
by the contributors.
