This book consists of a single essay that speculates on the
question what is housing?, and its opposite question, what is not
housing? The essay is organised around two distinct discourses
around which housing can be framed. The first, which is the
dominant discourse, is what I term policy thinking. This is where
housing is seen solely in terms of policy formulation and action.
The second discourse is private dwelling, which describes housing
in terms of a private space used by households. Private dwelling
might be seen as a product of policy, but, in actuality, it
precedes policy thinking in being the very purpose of policy.
Having made this distinction between policy thinking and private
dwelling, and so stated in principle what housing is, the
subsequent sections of the essay explore the nature of private
dwelling in more detail and so substantiate the distinction between
the two forms of discourse.
