This volume sheds light on the development of squatting practices
and movements in nine European cities (Madrid, Barcelona, Seville,
Rome, Paris, Berlin, Copenhagen, Rotterdam and Brighton) by
examining the numbers, variations and significant contexts in their
life course. It reveals how and why squatting practices have
shifted and to what extent they engender urban movements. The book
measures the volume and changes in squatting over various decades,
mostly by focusing on Squatted Social Centres but also including
squatted housing. In addition, it systematically compares the
cycles, socio-spatial structures and the political implications of
squatting in selected cities. This collection highlights how
squatters' movements have persisted over more than four decades
through different trajectories and circumstances, especially in
relation to broader protest cycles and reveals how political
opportunities and constraints influence the conflicts around the
legalisation of squats. p>
